Fuse amplifier’s power wire at the battery.
Be sure to fuse the power wire within 12” of the car’s battery. This will protect the car’s
battery in case of ashort circuit between the power amplif ier and battery. THIS IS A MUST,

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 amplifier) and terminal rings (for connection at
battery).
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 amplifier .
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 amplifier to
avoid puncturing lines, shorting wires or drilling holes in thegas tank.
Run signal 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 f rom the car’s electrical wiring.
Make all ground wires as short as possible and at the same point.
In order to reduce the chance of ground loops (i.e. engine noise), make the grounding wire as
short as possible to reduce the wire’s resistance. Also, when using multiple components, make
sureall units aregrounded at thesame point.
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 agrommet to protect the wire when
running through thef ire wall
