INSTRUCTIONS
INSTALLATION EXPERIENCE
Installation of Bass Habit amplifiers may require experience with a variety of mechanical procedures including
cable wiring, drilling, etc. This manual only provides general installation and operation instructions. If you have any
reservations about your installation skills, please contact your local authorized Bass Habit dealer for help.
CHOOSING AMPLIFIER MOUNTING LOCATIONS
Choose a mounting location in an area where the amplifier will not be damaged, and where the amplifier is not
covered up. Mount the amplifier so that it remains dry - never mount an amplifier outside the vehicle or in the
engine compartment. Amplifier cooling is essential for proper amplifier operation. If the amplifier is to be installed
in an enclosed space, make sure there is sufficient air circulation for the amplifier to cool itself. When mounting the
amplifier under a seat, ensure that it is clear of all moving parts and does not affect the seat functionality. Make
sure that the amplifier is mounted securely using nuts and bolts or the supplied mounting screws.
INSTALLATION PRECAUTIONS
NOTE! Proceed only if you are a qualified installer, otherwise let your dealer do it.
• Always wear protective eyewear when using tools.
• Turn off all stereo and other electrical devices before you begin.
• Disconnect the (-) negative lead from your vehicle's battery.
• Keep the amplifier in the package until final installation, and always rest it upwards.
• Never use force when installing a amplifier.
• Locate all fuel lines, brake lines, oil lines and electrical cables when planning your installation.
• Check clearances on both sides of a planned mounting surface before drilling any holes or fixing screws.
• When routing cables, keep input-signal cables away from power cables and speaker wires.
• When making connections, make certain all cables are secure and properly insulated.

STEP 1) POWER CONNECTIONS

The Bass Habit Play Power amplifiers are capable of delivering extremely high power levels and require a heavy-
duty and reliable connection to the vehicle's electrical system. To get the very best performance out of your Bass
Habit Play Power amplifier, carefully follow the instructions below:
GROUND CONNECTION (GND):
Connect the amplifiers Ground (GND) terminal to a solid point on the vehicles metal chassis, as close to the
amplifiers as possible. Scrape away any paint from this location; use a star-type lock washer to secure the connec-
tion. Minimal ground wire recommended size:
• PP600.1 G2: 4 awg/ 20mm²
• PP1000.1 G2: 4 awg/ 20mm²
POWER CONNECTION (+12V):
Connect a wire directly to the vehicles positive battery terminal, and install an appropriate fuse and holder within
30cm/12" from the battery terminal. Keep the fuse uninstalled at the time for routing and connecting the power
wire. Be sure to use grommets whenever routing wires through the firewall or other metal parts. When routing/
connecting is done, installation of the fuse into fuse holder can be finalised.
Minimal power wire recommended size:
• PP600.1 G2: 4 awg/ 20mm²
• PP1000.1 G2: 4 awg/ 20mm²
REMOTE CONNECTION (REM):
Connect the amplifiers Remote (REM) terminal to the source unit Remote turn on lead using a minimum of
0.75mm²/18 gauge wire. If your source unit does not have a turn on connection, connect the amplifier (REM)
terminal through a power switch button which can provide a +12V signal.
