Mounting and Setup 5 2-Way Tweeter Option or Hole to line up when replacing plug or tweeter When using one of the AS series 2-way speakers, the tweeter is fully removable. When removing the tweeter, make sure to replace the chrome plug in its place. This is needed for proper operation of the speaker. To remove the plug or tweeter grip your fingers on the outside of the tweeter or plug and gently pull up with a tilting action slightly from side to side and it will pop out.
Mounting and Setup 6 To mount the tweeter, use the tweeter as a template to mark out and cut a hole the diameter of the tweeter then, insert the tweeter then, place the supplied ring on the back of the tweeter and screw it on clockwise to tighten the tweeter into its mounting position. 3-Way Tweeter Option Removal of the 3-Way tweeter is the same as the 2-Way setup on page 5.
Choosing A Location 7 It is always best to plan the complete installation prior to attempting to install any product . The routing of wires, power connections and mounting locations should be planned first. As with any car stereo installation, and all work performed should be checked thoroughly and carefully prior to the operation of the system. The placement of your Audiobahn speakers within your vehicle will greatly affect the overall performance of your audio system.
Installation 8 Installation NOTE: Audiobahn strongly recommends that you operate your system at low volumes prior to the completed installation of your Audiobahn speakers. This will allow a test of the speaker before securing it to its permanent location. Caution: Make sure that all speaker wiring is fully protected from cuts, tears and possible wear. All short circuits developing as a result could severely damage the source unit or possibly the amplifier as well as the speakers themselves.
Installation 9 Wiring Audiobahn recommends using at least 18-gauge wire with your new speaker system. Thinner gauge wire may easily be severed and can cause damage to your system should any bare wires come in contact with the vehicles chassis. Make sure that your audio system is off while installing and connecting your new Audiobahn speaker. Failure to do so could result in damaging the speaker beyond repair. This is not something that would be covered under the manufacturer warranty.
Installation 10 Securing the Speaker Once you have tested your system and confirmed that it is operating properly, turn off your system and prepare for the mounting of the speaker. 1. Position the speaker into the mounting hole and confirm the correct mounting location and hole placement. Screw clips are provided to insure a snug fit. Place crew clips over the metal surface and line up the hole with the hole you have previously drilled. Place the speaker into the hole.
Troubleshooting 11 In the event that your Audiobahn speakers appear to require service we ask that you first do a little troubleshooting to determine if the problem is actually the speaker, or a problem located in a different part of the vehicle such as the amplifier, wiring, fusing or possibly the source unit.
Warning And Disclaimer 12 Investigate the layout of your automobile thoroughly before drilling or cutting any holes. Take care when you work near gas tanks, gas lines, hydraulic lines, and electrical wiring. Do not use the power amplifier unmounted. Attach the system securely to the automobile to prevent damage, particularly in the event of an accident. Do not mount the system so that the wire connections are unprotected or are subject to pinching or damage from nearby objects.
