mount and charge in any vehicle, augmenting the output of full-

INSTALLATION AND WIRING
IMPORTANT: Disconnect the vehicle's negative (–) battery
terminal before beginning the installation.
• Wear protective eyewear when using tools.
• Choose a safe mounting location. Check clearances on both
sides of the location. Be sure that screws will not puncture
brake or fuel lines or wiring harnesses, and that wire routing will
not interfere with vehicle operation. Use caution when drilling
or cutting.
• When making electrical connections, make sure they are
secure and properly insulated.
• Using the dock as a template, mark the locations of the holes
on the mounting surface.
• Drill pilot holes in the mounting surface.
• Attach the dock to the mounting surface with the included
sheet metal screws and washers.

Power and Ground Connections
• Power: Connect the +12V power wire to the positive terminal
of the vehicle's battery. Make sure the fuse and fuse holder are
within 18" (457mm) of the battery.
• Ground: Connect the GND wire to the negative terminal of
the vehicle's battery, or to the vehicle's chassis near the battery
with a screw. NOTE: If possible, remove any paint from the
chassis for best contact. It is recommended to use a star
washer below the ring connector for a secure connection.
• Remote-In: Connect the remote turn-on wire to the "Remote
Out" lead of the source unit, if using low-level signal inputs with
an aftermarket stereo. NOTE: If you are using high-level signal
inputs (your vehicle's speaker wires), you can choose to have
the 12-volt DC offset feature turn the amplifier on when you
turn on the vehicle power, or the audio-sensing feature turn on
the amplifier when it detects audio signal. In either case, you
will not have to connect the remote turn-on wire and can tape
or cap it off to prevent the introduction of noise.
• Remote-Out: Connect the remote-out wire to external devices
that require 12V turn-on after the JBL DSP Amplifier. This
connection will allow turn-on of 12V devices after the amplifier
wakes from turn-on by 12V remote-in, DC offset or audio
signal sensing input.
Mounting the speaker in the dock for charging
and subwoofer mode
Follow these steps to mount the speaker in the dock:
1. Pull out the handle.
2. Rest one corner of the speaker on the dock at a slight angle to
get the speaker seated.
3. Rotate the speaker until it is completely in place in the dock
and the rear clamp has secured it.
