DESIGN FEATURES
12.Power Terminals – The power and ground are
13.Fuses – These ATC fuses are easily accessible in case of failure.Always replace fuses with same type and rating. See Specifications for fuse ratings.
14.Infrasonic Filter – A 28Hz High Pass filter designed to prevent frequencies below the audio range from being applied to the subwoofer from the amplifier. Consequently improving subwoofer performance and power handling.

This section focuses on some of the vehicle considerations for installing your new amplifier.
CAUTION:If you feel unsure about installing this system yourself, have it installed by a qualified technician.
CAUTION:Before installation, disconnect the battery negative
Before beginning any installation, follow these simple rules:
1.Be sure to carefully read and understand the instructions before attempting to install the unit.
2.For safety, disconnect the negative lead from the battery prior to beginning the installation.
3.For easier assembly, we suggest you run all wires prior to mounting your unit in place.
4.Route all of the RCA cables close together and away from any high current wires.
5.Use high quality connectors for a reliable installation and to minimize signal or power loss.
6.Think before you drill! Be careful not to cut or drill into gas tanks, fuel lines, brake or hydraulic lines, vacuum lines or electrical wiring when working on any vehicle.
7.Never run wires underneath the vehicle. Running the wires inside the vehicle provides the best protection.
8.Avoid running wires over or through sharp edges. Use rubber or plastic grommets to protect any wires routed through metal, especially the firewall.
9.ALWAYS protect the battery and electrical system from damage with proper fusing. Install the appropriate fuse holder and fuse on the +12V power wire within 18" (45.7 cm) of the battery terminal.
10.When grounding to the chassis of the vehicle, scrape all paint from the metal to ensure a good, clean ground connection. Grounding connections should be as short as possible and always be connected to metal that is welded to the main body, or chassis, of the vehicle.
