This section focuses
on
some
of
the
vehicle considerations for installing your new amplifier.
Pre-planning your system layout and best wiring routes
will
save installation time.
When
deciding on the
layout
of
your new system, be sure
that
each component
will
be easily accessible for making adjustments.
~
CAUTION:
If
you feel unsure
about
installing this system yourself. have it installed
by
a
•qualified technician.
~
CAUTION:
Before installation. disconnect
the
battery negative
(-)
terminal
to
prevent
•damage
to
the
unit. fire and/or possible injury.
Before beginning any installation, follow these simple rules:
I.
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 areliable 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 agood, 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.
