INSTALLATION WARNINGS AND TIPS
THANK YOU for choosing a
JBL CS Series subwoofer enclosure.
These products have been designed
to deliver great bass performance from
a compact, easily installed enclosure.
To get the best performance from your
enclosure, we strongly recommend
that installation be entrusted to a
qualified professional. Although these
instructions explain how to install your
product in a general sense, they do
not show specific installation methods
that may be required for your particular
vehicle. If you do not have the neces-
sary tools or experience, do not attempt
the installation yourself. Instead, please
ask your authorized JBL car audio
dealer about professional installation.
In order that we may better serve you
should you require warranty service,
please retain your original sales receipt
and serial number.
WARNING: Playing loud music
in an automobile can permanently
damage your hearing as well as
hinder your ability to hear traffic.
We recommend listening at low
levels while driving. JBL accepts no
liability for hearing loss, bodily injury
or property damage resulting from
use or misuse of this product.
INSTALLATION TIPS
• Always wear protective eyewear
when using tools.
• Turn off all audio components and
other electrical devices before you
start. Disconnect the (–) negative
lead from your vehicle’s battery.
• Check clearances on both sides of
a planned mounting surface. Be
sure that screws or wires will not
puncture brake lines, fuel lines or
wiring harnesses, and that wire
routing will not interfere with the
safe operation of the vehicle.
• When making electrical connec-
tions, make sure they are secure
and properly insulated.
• 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.
• Do not mount speakers where they
will get wet.
• If a fuse must be replaced, be sure
to use the same type of fuse and
current rating as that of the original.
CHOOSING A
MOUNTING LOCATION
FOR ENCLOSURE
Choose a mounting location that
doesn’t interfere with cargo, the
fold-down rear seat or the trunk lid.
The best location is usually a corner
of the trunk or cargo area. Securely
mount enclosure to the mounting
surface using the supplied material.
