Find a clear and well-ventilated area to mount your amplifier that is unobstructed by any objects that will
cause harm or block ventilation. Despite the fact that this amplifier is compact, it still needs air to cool the
heat-sink fins. Do not mount under a carpet or an area with dead or stagnant air. Without proper air flow
the amplifier may overheat and go into protection where the thermal overload circuitry will shut down the
amplifier.
You may use the amplifier as a template and mark the four screw locations with a felt tip pen. Set the
amplifier aside before drilling. Use caution to make sure there are no objects behind the installation surface
that may become damaged during drilling.
The amplifier should be protected from exposure to moisture and direct sunlight. The best places to mount
your amplifier are: The floor of the trunk, under the driver's seat, or on the back of the rear seat. For
alternate installation locations, please consult your authorized TORO AUDIO Dealer.
NOTE: Do not use a drill with driver bit to mount the amplifier. Excessive force could cause the
plastic mounting feet to crack.
Upside down mounting will compromise heat dissipation through the heat-sink and
could engage the thermal protection circuit.
Try to avoid mounting the amplifier on a subwoofer enclosure, as extended exposure
to vibration may cause malfunction of the amplifier.
Don't mount the amplifier so that the wire connections are unprotected or are subject
to pinching or damage from nearby objects.
The DC power wire must be fused at the battery positive (+) terminal connection
before making or breaking power connections at the amplifier power terminals,
disconnect the DC power wire at the battery end.
The battery of the car audio system must be disconnected until the entire wiring and
installation is completed.
Do not use a power drill to tighten the power, ground, remote or speaker output
terminals on the amplifier to avoid stripping the terminal screws. It is best to hand
tighten these connections.
The use of Ring and Spade terminals (not included) provide the best electrical
connection for use with the clamp style connections on this amplifier.
