Installation

Before installing the amplifier

WARNING

!To ensure proper installation, use the supplied parts in the manner specified. If any parts other than those supplied are used, they may damage internal parts of the amplifier, or be- come loose causing the amplifier to shut down.

!Do not install in:

—Places where it could injure the driver or passengers if the vehicle stops suddenly.

—Places where it may interfere with the dri- ver, such as on the floor in front of the dri- ver’s seat.

!Install tapping screws in such a way that the screw tip does not touch any wire. This is im- portant to prevent wires from being cut by vi- bration of the car, which can result in fire.

!Make sure that wires are not caught in the sliding mechanism of the seats, resulting in a short-circuit.

!When drilling to install the amplifier, always confirm no parts are behind the panel and protect all cables and important equipment (e.g. fuel/brake lines, wiring) from damage.

CAUTION

!To ensure proper heat dissipation of the ampli- fier, ensure the following during installation:

—Allow adequate space above the amplifier for proper ventilation.

—Do not cover the amplifier with a floor mat or carpet.

!Avoid routing wires through hot areas, such as near the heater outlet. Heat may damage the insulation, resulting in a short-circuit through the vehicle body.

!The optimal installation location differs de- pending on the car model. Secure the ampli- fier at a sufficiently rigid location.

!Firstly make temporary connections and check to ensure the amplifier and system op- erate properly.

Example of installation on the floor mat or chassis

1Place the amplifier in the desired instal- lation location.

Insert the supplied tapping screws (4 mm ×

18mm) into the screw holes and push on the screws with a screwdriver so they make an im- print where the installation holes are to be lo- cated.

2Drill 2.5 mm (1/8 inch) diameter holes at the imprints either on the carpet or di- rectly on the chassis.

3Install the amplifier with the use of supplied tapping screws (4 mm × 18 mm).
