Planning your system

Before beginning the installation, consider the following:
a. If you plan to expand your system by adding other components sometime in the
future, ensure adequate space is left, and cooling requirements are met.
b. If your radio is equipped with preamplifier outputs (RCA), it is advisable to use them.
Mounting your amplifier
a. Select a suitable location that is convenient for mounting, is accessible for wiring
and has ample room for air circulation and cooling.
b. Use the amplifier as a template to mark the mounting holes, remove the amplifier and
drill 4 holes. Then mount the amplifier with the mounting screws.
Warning
Chose a mounting position where all eclectic wires are protected from being damaged by sharp edges, heat or
other conditions. +12Volt DC electrical connections must be fused on the battery side. Make sure your radio and
all other devices will be turned off while connection your system.
The GZHA 1.1800DXII does not have an internal fuse. Therefore it is absolutely necessary to
connect the ANL- fuseholder (included in delivery) with its 180 A fuse. The cable length between
amplifier and fuseholder must not be longer than max 20 cm / 7.9". Please see the connection
diagram on the following side for correct wiring.
