Introduction

Thank you for purchasing an AUDIO SYSTEM product. Please read this operating instruction completely before installation and use of the device. Pay attention to the advice and instructions of your car manufacturer. Check the polarity when connecting the loudspeakers.

Your purchase receipt serves as proof of purchase for any warranty repairs or exchanges. Keep your receipt, owner's manual, and original packaging in a safe location for possible future use.

[ATTENTION]: Use of sound components can impair your ability to hear necessary traffic sounds and may constitute a hazard while driving your automobile. AUDIO SYSTEM Germany accepts no liability for hearing loss, bodily injury, or property damage resulting from the use or misuse of its products.

We recommend having the installation performed by an authorized service center or specialist. Professional fitting and connection are prerequisites for perfect sound and further warranty.

[WARNING]: This speaker system is capable of producing very high volumes. Listening at very high volumes can lead to hearing damage.

Installation Tips

[WARNING]: Before mounting, disconnect the negative pole (-) of your car battery. Check all connections for correct polarity. Incorrect polarity can lead to short circuits and damage the vehicle's electrical system.
The best installation positions are the original factory locations for originality and easier mounting.
Ensure the speakers are installed flush and securely. The quality of the installation significantly impacts the sound. Pay attention to damping and care during installation. Protect the speakers from heat, direct sunlight, mechanical influences, moisture, and dampness using AUDIO SYSTEM accessories.
[ATTENTION]: Route your cables so they are not pinched or run over sharp edges. This can cause short circuits and damage to your entire installation.
[CAUTION]: Be careful when removing original interior trim parts. Plastic mounting components can be damaged and may need replacement.
The correct polarity of all speakers is crucial for the sound of your car audio system. It is possible to improve the sound by reversing the polarity of the tweeters. Experimentation and listening, or measurement (with MICRO AS), is recommended here.

General Information

The speaker system can be adapted to the specific acoustics of the vehicle and to personal music preferences. Depending on the location of the speaker openings, the crossover can be adjusted to optimize the frequency response according to these geometric conditions.

Depending on the installation location of the tweeter, it may be necessary to adjust the frequency response. For example, if the tweeter is installed in the A-pillar, mirror triangle, or door panel, it might be too loud without adjustment. The crossover can also be adjusted to your personal preference for tweeter volume or music genre.

[IMPORTANT]: Free cable ends must be insulated. Failure to do so can lead to a short circuit.
