AFETY PRECAUTIONS
Disconnect the battery.
For safety, disconnect the negative lead from the battery prior to beginning the installation.
Use high grade wire connectors.
To ensure maximum power transfer and secure safe connections, it is recommended to use
high grade barrier spades for connection at the crossover and amplifier (if equipped with
barrier style terminals).
Do not run any wires underneath vehicle.
Exposed wires have a chance of being cut or damaged. It is best to run all wires through the
vehicle under the carpet and/or side panels. This lends to a cleaner installation and less risk of
damage.
Use caution when mounting the speakers.
Remember there are many electrical wires, gas lines, vacuum lines, brake lines as well as a gas
tank in the automobile. Make sure you know where they are when mounting the speakers to
avoid puncturing lines, shorting wires or drilling holes in the gas tank.
Run speaker wires away from electrical wires.
To avoid possibility of induced noise from the car's electrical system (i.e. popping noises or
engine noise), run wires away from the car's electrical wiring.
Avoid sharp edges when running the wires.
To avoid the possibility of power, signal or speaker shorts, be careful not to allow the
amplifiers wires to come in contact with sharp edges. Use a grommet to protect the wire when
running through the fire wall .
