IMPORTANT: Installation of automotive stereo
components can require extensive experience
with a variety of mechanical and electrical proce-
dures. Although these instructions explain how to
install a Kappa Series 2-Way Component System
in a general sense, they do not show the exact
installation method for your particular vehicle. If
you do not feel you have the experience, do not
attempt the installation yourself, but instead ask
your Authorized Infinity Car Audio Dealer about
professional installation options.
WARNING: Playing loud music in an automotive
environment can permanently damage your hear-
ing, as well as hinder your ability to hear traffic.
The maximum volume levels achievable with
Infinity speakers, combined with high power
amplification, may exceed safe levels for
extended listening. We recommend using low
volume levels when driving. Infinity accepts no
liability for hearing loss, bodily injury or property
damage as a result of use or misuse of this
product.
SPEAKER PLACEMENT
Kappa speakers are designed to be easily
installed in stock speaker locations. While mount-
ing your speakers in the original factory locations
will, in most cases, provide excellent sonic
results, the best sounding installations are a
result of adherence to a few basic rules.
• For the most spacious stereo image, place the
left and right speakers as far apart as possible.
• For enhanced center image, place the left and
right speakers so they are equidistant from the
listening position. If possible, try to place them
as far forward as possible.
• For best treble response when tweeters are
flush mounted in the I-Mount™aim them at the
listening position by adjusting the tweeter
angle in the cup, tightening the small metal
locking nut behind the assembly, and rotating
the entire assembly in its mounting location
before tightening the large plastic locking nut
behind the panel (see Figure 5, page 3).
INSTALLATION WARNINGS AND TIPS
• Always wear protective eyewear when using
any tools.
• Turn off all audio systems and other electrical
devices before you start. Disconnect the (–) neg-
ative lead from your vehicle’s battery.
• Keep components in their package until final
installation. When moving a speaker, always
rest it with the cone or dome facing up. Never
use force to install any speaker.
• Check clearances on both sides of a planned
mounting surface before drilling any holes or
installing any screws. Remember that the
screws can extend behind the surface.
• At the installation sites, locate and make a note
of all fuel lines, hydraulic brake lines, vacuum
lines and electrical wiring. Use extreme caution
when cutting or drilling in and around these
areas.
CAUTION: In some cars, fuel tanks may be
located directly beneath the rear deck. Check for
adequate speaker basket clearance before
considering this location!
• Before drilling or cutting holes, use a utility
knife to remove unwanted fabric or vinyl, to
keep material from snagging in a drill bit or
saw.
• For door installations, check the clearance with
the windows throughout the range of the win-
dow’s travel, and verify that a mounted speaker
will not interfere with the window crank or
power-window mechanism.
• If mounting components elsewhere, check for
clearance around rear deck torsion bars, glove
box or other structural elements.
• Do not mount components where they will get
wet.

A NOTE ON POWER HANDLING
The speakers used in Kappa Series 2-Way
Component Systems are designed to produce rea-
sonable volume levels with little amplifier power.
However, the addition of an amplifier to drive
your speakers and a subwoofer will enhance the
dynamic range of your system, and help over-
come the ambient noise in a moving vehicle.
Kappa speakers are designed to handle the power
of a dedicated amplifier driven at or below its
rated power. If an amplifier is driven far above its
rated power, the output signal will “clip,” and the
additional power present in a clipped signal can
damage any speaker. Distorted or “fuzzy” sound
from your speakers is an indication that the ampli-
fier has exceeded its rated power, and you should
reduce the volume level.
GENERAL CARE
The loudspeaker grilles may be cleaned with a
slightly damp cloth. Do not use any cleaners or
solvents on the grilles or the speaker cones.
