3. Mounting:
   • The Infinity Primus speakers feature a compact design and Flex Fit basket for easy installation in tight spaces and proper alignment with OEM mounting holes.

4. Wiring:
   • Connect the provided 18AWG pigtail cables to the speaker terminals. Ensure correct polarity (positive to positive, negative to negative).
   • Connect the other end of the pigtail cables to your vehicle's speaker wiring harness or amplifier outputs.
5. Grille Installation: Attach the speaker grilles using the remaining screws to protect the speaker cones.
6. Test: Reconnect the vehicle's battery and test the speakers at a low volume. Gradually increase the volume to ensure proper function and sound quality.

Important Considerations:

• Ensure all connections are secure to prevent intermittent sound or damage.
• Avoid over-tightening screws, which can damage the speaker frame.
• If you are unsure about any step, consult a professional car audio installer.

Operating Your Speakers

Your Infinity Primus speakers are designed with patented Plus One woofer cone architecture and edge-driven silk dome tweeters to deliver clear, high-fidelity audio. Here are some guidelines for optimal operation:

• Power Handling: These speakers have a power handling of 60W RMS and 180W peak. Ensure your amplifier's output matches these specifications to prevent damage.
• Audio Settings: Adjust your car's head unit or amplifier settings (bass, treble, balance, fader) to suit your personal preference. Start with flat settings and make small adjustments.
• Break-in Period: Allow a short break-in period (approximately 10-20 hours of normal listening) for the speaker components to loosen up and achieve their full sonic potential.

Maintenance and Care

To keep your speakers in excellent condition and ensure long-lasting performance:

• Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe down the grilles and speaker surrounds. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
• Environmental Factors: While designed for automotive use, extreme temperatures and direct prolonged sunlight can affect speaker longevity.
• Avoid Overloading: Do not continuously play music at distortion levels, as this can permanently damage the voice coils and other components.
