Investigate the layout of your vehicle thoroughly before drilling or cutting.
Take care when you work near the gas tank, gas lines, hydraulic lines, electri-
cal components and electrical wiring. Do not use the equipment unmounted.
Attach this system securely to prevent damage, particularly in the event of an
accident or aggressive driving. Do not mount the system so that wire con-
nections are unprotected or are subjected to pinching or damage from nearby
objects. Before connecting or disconnecting power connections at the system
power terminals, disconnect the +12V DC wire at the battery end. Confirm
that your source unit and other equipment are turned off while connecting the
input terminals. If you need to replace the power fuse, replace it only with
a fuse identical to the provided fuse. Using a fuse of different type or rating
may result in damage to the system, which is not covered by the manufac-
turer’s warranty. Do not install any product where it may be subjected to
excessive heat, moisture and dust or where it may be repeatedly kicked,
brushed or bumped. Make absolutely sure that the terminals for the products
are connected to the proper inputs and outputs from the music source. Never
run the wiring on the outside of the vehicle or under it where it can be dam-
aged by road hazards or any moving parts of the vehicle. Use existing wire
channels, sills, panels and molding strips inside the vehicle to hide the wiring

DISCLAIMER
IMPORTANT: Never cut any metal that is an integral part of the vehicle’s
safety or structural support system. If you are unsure, it is best to have the
