Introduction
Congratulations on purchasing an Audison product. This manual provides essential instructions for the correct installation and use of your system. For further information, please contact your dealer or Audison technical support at support@elettromedia.it. Please read all instructions carefully before installation to avoid unintentional damage.
General Installation and Safety Instructions
- All components must be firmly secured to the vehicle structure. Ensure installations are solid and safe to prevent serious injury or damage during driving.
- Always wear protective eyewear when using tools, as splinters or product residue may become airborne.
- Keep the product in its original packaging until ready for final installation to avoid accidental damage.
- Do not carry out any installation inside the engine compartment.
- Before starting, turn off the head unit and all other audio system devices to prevent possible damage.
- Ensure component placement does not interfere with the normal operation of the vehicle's mechanical or electrical devices.
- Do not install loudspeakers where they may be exposed to water, excessive humidity, dust, or dirt.
- Do not install the tweeter without its protective grille.
- Do not install components or run cables near the vehicle's electronic or mechanical devices or electrical box.
- Be cautious when drilling or cutting into the vehicle chassis, ensuring no essential cables or structural elements are present underneath or in the selected area.
- When routing cables, ensure they do not contact sharp edges or moving mechanical devices. Secure and protect cables along their entire length with self-extinguishing insulation.
- Use only cables with the proper section (AWG) indicated for the applied power.
- When running cables through chassis holes, protect them with a rubber ring (grommet). Provide adequate protection for cables near heat-generating devices.
- Do not run wires outside the vehicle.
- Use top-quality cables, connectors, and accessories as found in the Connection catalogue.
- Refer to the Audison website for warranty certificate information.
