UNDER-DASH MOUNTING
Select a mounting location that allows easy
access to the control while driving. Using the
REMOTE LEVEL control as a template, mark and
drill holes in the mounting surface. Attach the
REMOTE LEVEL control using the mounting
screws provided (Figure 5).
Figure 5. Under-dash mounting of the REMOTE
LEVEL control.
Route the cable behind the dash or other interior
panels and under the carpet. Do not route the
cable outside the vehicle. Connect the RJ11 cable
between the RJ11 receptacle on the BassLink+4
and the receptacle on the REMOTE LEVEL control
(Figure 6).

OWER ONNECTIONS
Make Power, Ground and Remote Turn-On
connections as shown in Figure 7. Observe
the following installation tips:
• Connect a short #8AWG GND wire from
Basslink+4 to the nearest bare metal surface.
Scrape away paint from the metal surface, if
necessary, and use a screw with a (star) lock
washer.
• Install a fuse holder with a 60A fuse within 18"
of the battery + terminal (see Figure 7).
• Use #8 AWG wire for the +BATT (+12Vdc) and
GND (ground) connections. If needed, use at
least a #20 AWG wire for the REM (remote)
connection.
• If you pass the power or remote wire through
the vehicle's firewall or other metal obstruction,
it must be insulated with a rubber grommet.
• If your head unit provides a remote turn-on
lead, connect it to the REM terminal on
BassLink+4. For speaker-level applications,
a remote connection is not required, since
BassLink+4's Auto Turn On feature will sense
a signal on the speaker wires and turn on
automatically.

IMPORTANT: To enable BassLink+4's Auto
Turn On feature, set AUTO TURN ON to the
AUTO position (see Figure 12 on page 5).
