Orion Car Audio XTREME 600.4 owner manual Step By Step Installation

STEP BY STEP INSTALLATION

Step 1 Determine the location for the amplifier. Refer to the Mounting Locations section in this manual for detailed information.

Step 2 Decide on the system configuration for your amplifier. For system suggestions, refer to the System Planning section of this manual.

Step 3 Run all the wires from the amplifier location to the speakers, source unit and battery. Do not connect the battery at this time. Be sure to run RCAs, power and speaker wires away from factory electrical wires and system as they pose a great potential for induced system noise.

Step 4 Pre-drill amplifier mounting holes. Be sure to "think before you drill". Gas tanks, fuel lines, and other obstructions have a nasty way of hiding themselves. For best results use a marking pen to mark the mounting holes and pre-drill these holes with a standard 1/8" drill bit.

Step 5 Mount the amplifier. Make sure the amplifier is mounted on a flat surface. If this is not possible, do not over tighten the screws such that the chassis of the amplifier is twisted or bent.

Step 6 Turn the vehicle’s key switch on the off position.

Step 7 Disconnect the vehicle’s battery ground terminal.

Step 8 Connect the RCA and speaker wires to the amplifier. Check the quality of your speakers and signal connections. This will determine the ultimate performance of your ORION amplifier. Refer to the Input section of this manual for correct wiring instructions.

Step 9 Connect power wires to the amplifier. At this time do not connect the fuse at the main battery.

Step 10 Reconnect the ground terminal to the battery.

Step 11 Set crossovers. Refer to the Internal Crossover Sections of this manual for detailed instructions.

Step 12 Once satisfied that all connections and settings are correct, install the fuse at located near the vehicle’s battery and proceed to the testing the system section of this manual.

WARNING! Never exceed the recommended fuse size of this amplifier. Failure to do so will result in the void of your warranty.
