Mounting

A power supply kit dedicated to this product cabling will shortly be available at your supply.

• Unplug the “+” from the battery

• Make sure you follow the car manufacturer instructions (airbag, alarm system, computer, immobiliser ...).

• Always use battery lead connections.

Cabl routing

The 12V supply cables should be passed down one side of the vehicle and the signal cables down the other.

These cables must be suitably protected to avoid any damage to the insulation, especially when feeding the

cable through from the engine compartment to the passenger cabin.

Installation

We have taken time to design a product that will work exceptionally well. To add to this we have included a

fixing kit to ensure the subwoofer remains securely mounted. Please follow the below mentioned steps to ensure

the subwoofer is mounted correctly.

1 - Rear seats must be positioned in their normal fixed position.

2 - Decide the best location possible that suits your automobile and space available. We recommend the

best location for optimum sound quality and most secure is to position behind the rear seats, in the trunk

of the automobile. It can be positioned in either left centre or right side locations. This will not change the

sound quality, as bass frequencies are not directional.

3 - Ensure the area for subwoofer location is clean and tidy. Any loose objects are removed, as they could knock

and damage the subwoofer, and this is not covered by the warranty.

4 - Once the location has been decided, carefully attach the fixing template with scotch tape (fig. 1).

5 - Now mark the screw hole positions for the fixing brackets. (Please verify with template).

6 - Drill two holes 2 mm for the 4 fixing brackets, at your defined locations. It is advisable that the drill

depth be reduced to a minimum length, so to prevent drilling to deep into the textile of the seat (fig. 2).

7 - Now carefully position the brackets and one screw per bracket into place (fig. 3).

8 - Now take the two fixing straps and thread through the aperture available on the fixing bracket (fig. 4)

and position the second screw on each bracket.

9 - Now place the subwoofer into position, lay the straps around the grille. These must be positioned at the

extremity of grille, as indicated on diagram, this ensures the straps do not interfere with the driver or port

tube. Ensure the straps are flat and untangled (fig. 5).

10 - Attach the straps and pull tight (fig. 6).

11 - Ensure the cabinet is securely fastened into position. Adjust straps if necessary to maintain a secure hold

to the rear seat.

12 - Your subwoofer is ready for wiring and setting.

Wiring

The below section deals with issues regarding the vehicle which are necessary to take into account for the

installation of the amplifier. You’ll save time by planning the system layout and wiring in advance. Ensure that

during this preliminary step all the adjustments are accessible once the installation is complete.

B for starting th wiring, pl as follow th following rul s car fully:

1 - After reading the whole manual, be sure that you have understood all the instructions before installing

the amplifier.

2 - Disconnect the battery’s negative wire before starting the installation. (fig. A).

3 - To facilitate the assembly, we strongly recommend that you unwind all the wires before installing

the amplifier.

4 - Put aside all the R A cables, loudspeaker, REM and REMOTE ONTROL from the power cables in

order to avoid any interference of the signal.

5 - Use quality connectors to ensure a reliable installation and to minimise any losses of signal or power.

6 - Think carefully before drilling anything. Be extremely careful not to cut or drill the petrol (fuel) tank, the

fuel, brake, hydraulic or vacuum pipes, as well as the electrical wiring.

7 - Never route a wire under the vehicle. It is absolutely imperative to install them inside the vehicle for

better protection. While routing the wires, verify that they do not impair the driving of the vehicle.

ables obstructing or routing through areas such as the steering wheel, pedals (brake, accelerator and

clutch, etc.) may be extremely dangerous.

8 - Avoid routing wires above or through sharp rims. Any wire routed through metal must be protected

with a grommet. Route the wires well away from mobile parts (seat rails,…) and from sharp or pointed

cutting edges. This will avoid catching or damaging the wires.

9 - Always protect the battery and electrical circuit from potential damages with the help of fuses. Install a

fuse holder and suitable fuses on the 12V positive (+) power cable at less than 40cm from the battery

terminal. Ideally, this abovementioned distance should be the shortest possible. (fig. 13).

10 - Prepare the chassis ground by scraping any trace of paint on the metal surface in order to ensure correct

grounding. The grounding connections should also be as short as possible and ALWAYS connected to

the metal welded to the body or the chassis of the vehicle. (fig. 9).

11 - NEVER install this product in the engine compartment of the vehicle. This will void the guarantee.

Cabling

WARNING

If there is a doubt as to your ability to install the amplifier and to cable the system properly, get a Focal

distributor to do it for you.

WARNING

Before you begin the connection phase of set-up, remove the vehicle battery’s negative (-) terminal. (fig. A).

CAUTION

Avoid routing power supply cables close to low-level input cables (R A), to your car’s radio aerial, or to

sensitive units. High-current power supply cables can cause static/interference that affects audio signals.

CAUTION

Keep cables as short as possible to optimise the system’s set-up performance and to reduce

signal loss.

Route the low-level audio cables (R A), the loudspeaker cables, the REMOTE cable, and the REMOTE

ONTROL cable together and insulate them from other high-power car accessories, and in particular

insulate them from electric motors (i.e. the windscreen-wiper motor, etc.). Retain the full length of the cables

– adjustments can be made later.

Route the positive power cables (+). Make sure when doing so to route them opposite the cables that you have

previously drawn – this is to avoid any interference. DO NOT ONNE T THE ABLE YET.

Get hold of the negative power cable. This cable should be as short as possible and ideally should not be any

longer than 1 metre, to ensure effective coupling between the amplifier and the car’s chassis. The cable and

its wire gauge should comply with the table on page 7. Find a suitable ground point (see fig. 9), then sand it to

remove any traces of paint or other covering and in so doing optimise the contact point. Pierce the metal that

you have previously sanded, making a hole the same size as the screw you are using, making sure that there

are no tank cables or any other sensitive vehicle devices nearby. Remove the plastic around 1 cm of cable (see

fig. 8) and then tin it. Screw the cable firmly down onto the amplifier’s GND terminal. Tin the other end of it

and then crimp or weld it onto the terminal lug provided. Insert the terminal lug in the screw, and then put the

screw and nut in place and screw-drive the screw in firmly.

You can now start the connection phase – i.e. connection of the audio signal (R A), REMOTE, and loudspeaker

cables. onnect the R As to the amplifier (see fig. 10), making sure that the polarities are correct (i.e. INPUT

Left = black or white, INPUT Right = red). onnect the other end of the R As to the car radio’s R A* outputs

(Left = left ; Right = right).

If the car radio only has speakers output, you must use the high-level adaptator supplied in

the packaging (see fig. 11).

Then connect the REMOTE cable to the amplifier (see fig. 12) – screw it in firmly. onnect the other end of the

REMOTE cable to the car radio’s REMOTE terminal.

Finally, connect the loudspeaker cables to the amplifier and make sure the polarities are correct (see fig. 12).

onnect the REMOTE ONTROL cable to the amplifier (page 13, [9]), and then put the remote control at

the desired location.

Get the positive (+) power supply cable ready for connection to the amplifier by removing 1cm of the plastic

coating from the end of it. Tin this part of the cable using a soldering iron and tin the wire. Insert the plastic-

free tinned part of it in the amplifier’s “BATT” terminal, then secure the cable in place by screwing it in tightly

(see fig. 13).

WARNING

The cable that links the positive (+) terminal to the battery at the amplifier’s “BATT” terminal must

ABSOLUTELY be fused (see current ratings listed in the table on page 7) not more than 40cm from the

vehicle’s battery. The connections on the fuse-holder must be fully insulated.

You can now start the fuse-holder (the role of which is to make the system safe) installation phase. The fuse-

holder must be connected on both sides to the positive (+) power supply cable. It has to be near the battery (i.e.

10cm - 40cm from the battery). Disassemble the fuse-holder, taking care to remove the fuse. Attach the base of

the fuse-holder. ut the red power supply cable at a distance of between 10cm and 40cm (maximum) from the

battery. Retain the cable you do not use here, as it will be used later, to link the other end of the fuse-holder to

the positive (+) terminal of the vehicle’s battery. Strip 1cm of the cable end, then tin it. Screw the cable into the

fuse-holder binding post terminal. Do not throw away the spare cable that is left over. Strip 1cm of the cable

end, then tin it. Screw the cable into the other fuse-holder terminal (fig. 13).

WARNING

Do not open the amplifier or undertake any modifications to the product. There is a risk of accident, fire

or electric shock.

Tin the end of the power supply cable before you connect it to the battery’s positive (+) terminal. Weld the

end of the cable to the terminal lug that is going to be used for the battery’s positive (+) terminal. onnect the

terminal lug to the battery’s positive terminal.

Insert the fuse into the fuse-holder, and screw in tightly.

The connection phase has now been completed. Now all you need to do is to check that you have the right

power supply and verify that the overall set-up – car radio + amplifier + loudspeakers – works properly. Set all

gains (both source gains and amplifier gains) to their minimum levels. Switch on the various parts of the system.

Once you have switched on all of the parts, test the system at low sound level.
