Directed Audio 1200T manual Installation Guidelines

NOTE

Prior to servicing your vehicle ensure that the alarm system is disarmed. Due to the amplifier’s anti-theft feature (if enabled), if the main power to the

amplifier is removed while the alarm is armed the amplifier operation is disabled. The amplifier operation must then be reset by your Directed dealer.

INSTALLATION GUIDELINES

1.Please read this owner's manual care- fully before installing this amplifier.

2.Disconnect the battery ground terminal prior to making any elec- trical connections.

3.Check for any hazards or obstruc- tions such as gas tanks, fuel or brake lines, and wiring harnesses before mounting the amplifier.

4.Pick a mounting location that will provide adequate access and venti- lation and protect the amplifier from heat, moisture, and dirt.

5.Avoid sharp metal areas when routing cables to the amplifier, and run RCA cables away from the power cables and other potentially noisy car harnesses.

6.The amplifier should be grounded with a short, heavy gauge wire connected directly to the car at a bare metal surface, preferably

scraped body sheet metal. Do not use factory grounded locations, seat bolts, or brackets that are spotwelded.

7.Always fuse your power connection within in 8 to 10 inches of the battery terminal. Use a fuse or circuit breaker rated slightly more than the on-board fuse(s) of the amplifier(s). The gauge of power wire used should take into account the total current draw of the system, and the length of the wire used. IASCA and other auto sound competition organizations have charts available for this; you can also find a chart in the MECP study guide. Minimum wire gauge recom- mendations for the individual ampli- fiers are listed on the specification page. Always use the same gauge wire for the amplifier ground that you use for the power wire. Be sure to examine the battery ground
