WII'IING TIPS:
A.
RCA mterconnect
w~res
and power
lines should
be run separately.
12
volt
power
lines,
when run next to RCA mterconnects
or
speaker
w~res,
can
1nduce
a hum
mto
the
Signal
path
of
the system (Radiated
N01se.),
even with
well
shielded
w1res.
A
mm1mum
of
s1x
mches
apart
will
help ensure that power line Interference will
not be
present.
B.
All
w~nng,
whether power, speaker or RCA
Interconnects
should be kept as far as
possible from other high
voltage
areas of the
veh1cle
s factory
wmng.
These areas
can
also
1nduce
no1se
1nto
the
system.
C.
Make certain that
w1nng
IS
never run through openmgs
which have rough
metal
edges, like
fire walls. trunk
walls, etc. Also, beware that
w1nng
may get pinched
beneath seat tracks.clutch and brake pedals,
etc. Use
v1nyl
tubmg
and grommets
whenever
necessary.
D.
When
maktng
