5.Add an external fuse on the amplifier’s positive (+) power lead and connect it as close as possible to the vehicle’s (+) battery terminal. Use a rating that equals the total current consumption at full output of all amplifiers in the system. Adding an external fuse will protect the electrical system from short circuits that can cause a fire.
6.Refer to Figure 6 when making electrical connections. Connect the amplifier’s positive (+) lead via a fuse directly to the positive (+) terminal on the battery. Do not connect this wire to the car’s fuse panel. Use
7.When replacing the amplifier’s fuse, always use one having the same current rating. Substituting a
8.Never ground the speakers to the vehicle chassis or body.
9.Make sure that your vehicle’s electrical system (alternator, battery, etc.) is capable of handling the additional load. If you are planning a
10.To avoid noise problems, run the amplifier’s positive (+) power lead along one side of the vehicle to the battery. Run the remote
11.When creating passage holes for the power wire, use grommets to eliminate any sharp edges created during drilling. This will protect the wire from being nicked and causing a short circuit.
12.Extra cable can cause signal loss and act as an “antenna” for noise. Use only
