INSTALLATION WARNINGS AND TIPS
ABOUT THESE INSTRUCTIONS Installation of automotive stereo components can require extensive experience with
a variety of mechanical and electrical procedures. Although these instructions explain how to install a CS Series component system in a general sense, they do not show the exact installation methods for your particular vehicle. If you do not feel you have the experience, do not attempt the installation yourself – instead, ask your authorized JBL car audio dealer about professional installation options.
LOUD MUSIC AND HEARING Playing loud music in an automobile can hinder your ability to hear traffic, as well as permanently damage your hearing. The maximum volume levels achievable with JBL speakers, combined with high power amplification, may exceed safe levels for extended listening. We recommend using low volume levels when driving. JBL accepts no liability for hearing loss, bodily injury or property damage as a result of use or misuse of this product.
REAR DECK PRECAUTION In some cars, fuel tanks may be located directly beneath the rear deck. Before installation, make sure there is adequate speaker basket clearance before considering this location.
