Setup and Installation

Careful installation is crucial for optimal performance and safety. If you are unsure about any steps, consult a professional.

Wiring Connections

The system requires a 12V DC power source. Ensure proper polarity and secure connections.

Image: A diagram illustrating the wiring connections. It shows four speaker connectors, an ignition wire, a positive wire, a negative wire, and a white antenna wire. Important note: all three wires (ignition, positive, negative) must be connected to the battery for full functionality (music and alarm). If only red and black are wired, only the alarm function may work, and music playback will not. The white wire is an antenna and can be connected to metal on the motor or left unconnected.

1. Speaker Connections: Connect the four speaker wires from the main unit's output jack to the respective speakers. Ensure correct polarity for each speaker.
2. Power Connections:
   • Connect the Positive Wire (typically red) to the positive terminal of your vehicle's 12V battery.
   • Connect the Negative Wire (typically black) to the negative terminal of your vehicle's 12V battery or a suitable ground point on the chassis.
   • Connect the Ignition Wire (typically yellow) to a switched 12V source that turns on and off with your vehicle's ignition.
   • Important: For full functionality, including music playback and alarm features, ensure all three power wires (Positive, Negative, and Ignition) are properly connected to the battery circuit. If only red and black are wired, only the alarm function may work, and music playback will not.
3. Antenna Connection: The white wire serves as an antenna. It can be connected to a metal part of your vehicle for improved FM reception, or it can be left unconnected if reception is adequate.

Mounting the Main Unit

Use the provided mounting bracket to secure the main unit in a safe and accessible location on your vehicle. Ensure it is protected from direct impact and excessive vibration.

Mounting the Speakers

Choose the appropriate speaker holders based on your vehicle's mounting points (handlebars or 10MM thread). Securely attach the speakers, ensuring they are positioned for optimal sound dispersion and are not obstructed.

The speaker cables are 250cm (2.5 meters) long, allowing for flexible placement.
