Installation

Before installing the amplifier

WARNING
To ensure proper installation, use the supplied
parts in the manner specified. If any parts
other than those supplied are used, they may
damage internal parts of the amplifier, or be-
come loose causing the amplifier to shut
down.
Do not install in:
Places where it could injure the driver or
passengers if the vehicle stops suddenly.
Places where it may interfere with the dri-
ver, such as on the floor in front of the dri-
ver s seat.
Install tapping screws in such a way that the
screw tip does not touch any wire. This is im-
portant to prevent wires from being cut by vi-
bration of the car, which can result in fire.
Make sure that wires do not get caught in the
sliding mechanism of the seats or touch the
legs of a person in the vehicle as short-circuit
may result.
When drilling to install the amplifier, always
confirm no parts are behind the panel and
protect all cables and important equipment
(e.g. fuel/brake lines, wiring) from damage.
CAUTION
To ensure proper heat dissipation of the ampli-
fier, ensure the following during installation:
Allow adequate space above the amplifier
for proper ventilation.
Do not cover the amplifier with a floor mat
or carpet.
Place all cables away from hot places, such
as near the heater outlet.
The optimal installation location differs de-
pending on the car model. Secure the ampli-
fier at a sufficiently rigid location.
Check all connections and systems before
final installation.
After installing the amplifier, confirm that the
spare tire, jack and tools can be easily re-
moved.
