INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS

The following is a list of tools needed for installation:
Volt/Ohm Meter
Wire strippers
Wire crimpers
Wire cutters
#2 Phillips screwdriver
Battery post wrench
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:
1. 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 a reliable 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 a good,
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.

MOUNTING LOCATIONS

Engine Compartment
Never mount this unit in the engine compartment. Mounting the unit in the engine compartment
will void your warranty.
Trunk (preferred) and Passenger Compartment Mounting
Though preferred mounting is to the floor of the trunk, the Type RF amplifiers can be mounted in
any orientation. This is due to it's unique internal cooling system which uses Backset inlets and
outlets for optimized air movement even in a limited surrounding space.
