Congratulations on your choice of a Hifonics speaker.

you complete a basic installation. For more detailed
information on system setting, speaker and subwoofer
configuration, and full specifications by model, visit our

CAUTION
Always consider consulting a professional audio installer
before installing new speakers. Many manufacturers locate
speakers behind interior panels that require special tools to
remove. Be careful and take your time.
If you are using the speaker wire supplied with your new
speakers make sure that you run the speaker wires only
through safe areas. Do not let speaker wire make contact with
metal edges or hot engine components.
Dimensions
Before you start
It's a good idea to confirm that you have purchased the
correct size speakers to fit your application. If you have any
reservations about being able to complete the installation
yourself, we recommend contacting a professional.

Carefully select a route for the audio signal
wires. If using existing speaker wires,
confirm that the wire is in good shape and
not shorted. Avoid routing wires through
dangerous areas. Attach the positive
illumination lead to either of the BLUE or the
RED termination point.
