XPA SERIES INSTALLATION

Preparation

Please read entire manual before installation. Due to the technical nature of amplifiers, it is highly recommended that your DUAL amplifier is installed by a professional installer or an authorized dealer.

Before You Start

Disconnect negative battery terminal. (consult a qualified technician for instructions)

Avoid installing the amplifier where it would be subject to high temperatures, such as from direct sunlight, or where it would be subject to dust, dirt or excessive vibration.

Use extreme caution when drilling holes to avoid damaging fuel lines or existing vehicle wiring.

All amplifier installations require power, signal and speaker wires (not included).

An amplifier installation kit (sold separately) is highly recommended to facilitate the installation. Consult your dealer for recommendations.

Mounting Location

Choose a mounting location for the amplifier. Suggested locations include under a seat or in the trunk.

The amplifier can be mounted horizontal (recommended) or vertical. For optimum performance, make sure to provide at least 1" of space to around all sides. Do not mount the amplifier under carpets or where airflow is restricted.

Do not install the amplifier where it may be exposed to moisture.

The optimum mounting location varies between vehicles. Remember to test all amplifier functions before completing the final mounting procedure.
