Installation
)
Before installing the amplifier
AwARNING
·
To
ensure proper installation, use the supplied
parts in the
manner
specified. If any parts
other
than those supplied are used, they may
damage internal parts of
the
amplifier,
or
be-
come
loose causing the
amplifier
to
shut
down.
Do not install in:
- Places where it could injure the driver
or
passengers if the vehicle stops suddenly.
- Places where it may interfere
with
the dri-
ver,
such as on the
floor
in
front
of the dri-
ver's seat.
Install tapping screws in such a way
that
the
screw
tip
does not
touch
any wire. This
is
im-
portant to prevent wires
from
being
cut
by
vi-
bration of the
car,
which
can result in fire.
Make sure
that
wires do not get
caught
in
the
sliding
mechanism
of the seats
or
touch
the
legs of a person in the vehicle as short-circuit
may result.
When drilling to install the amplifier, always
confirm
no parts are behind the panel and
protect all cables and
important
equipment
(e.g. fuel/brake I i nes, wiring)
from
damage.
A
cAUTION
To
ensure proper heat dissipation of the
amp
I
i-
fier, ensure the following
during
installation:
-
Allow
adequate space above the
amplifier
for
proper venti I at ion.
- Do not cover
the
amplifier
with a
floor
mat
or
carpet.
Protection
function
may activate to protect
the
amplifier
against overheating due to installa-
tion in locations where
sufficient
heat
cannot
be
dissipated,
continuous
use
under
high-vo-
lume
conditions, etc.
In
such cases, the am-
pi
ifier reduces the power
output
or
shuts
down until it has cooled to a certain desig-
nated temperature.
Place all cables away
from
hot places, such
as near the heater outlet.
The optimal installation location differs de-
pending on the
car
model. Secure the ampli-
fier at a sufficiently rigid location.
