a dangerous projectile in the event of a crash. Never mount the amplifier where it might get wet. Mount the amplifier so the wire connections will not be pulled. Route the wires where they will not be scraped, pinched or damaged in any fashion. The +12V power supply wire must be fused as close as possible to the battery terminal, ide- ally within 18". -
Page 19: Step By Step Installation
Step By Step Installation Step 1 Determine the location for the amplifier. Refer to the Choosing Mounting Locations section of this guide for detailed information. Step 2 Decide on the system configuration for your amplifier. For system sugges- tions, refer to the Speaker Connections section of this guide. Step 3 Run all the wires from the amplifier location to the speakers, source unit, and battery. -
Page 20: Adjusting The Sound Of The System
Step 5 If using an aftermarket source unit, turn the level controls of the amplifier about one quarter of a turn. Slowly increase the volume level of the source unit to so that you can hear the output of the system. If no sound is heard or if the output is distorted, turn the system off immediately. -
