Exposure to excessive volumes (over 85 dB) for more than one hour can cause irreparable damage to your hearing.

If the subwoofer is not properly secured, it could become a projectile in the event of an accident. This point is even more important if the subwoofer is installed in a hatchback, a station wagon, a utility vehicle or a van.
• 7. If cables or harnesses are provided, use them the proper way (like mentioned in this user manual) without replacing or modifying them.
• 8. If a fuse is included in the kit or harness, use only same rating one in case of replacement.
