BP1204 INSTALLATION Installation The following installation instructions are very basic. If you feel unsu\ re about installing this speaker system yourself, Dual recommends aquiring the se\ rvices of a professional car audio installation center. Before installation, please review the following guidelines: 1. Be sure to carefully read and understand the instructions before attempting to install this product. . For safety, disconnect the battery negative terminal prior to beginning the installation. . If additional wiring is required, we recommend running all wires prior t\ o mounting your speaker in place. 4. To ensure reliable performance and minimize signal or power loss, use th\ e highest quality connectors available. 5. Use caution before you drill or cut! Be careful not to cut or drill into\ gas tanks, fuel lines, brake or hydraulic lines, vacuum lines or electrical wiring when working on any vehicle. 6. Never run speaker wires underneath your vehicle. Running speaker wires inside the vehicle provides the best protection from exhaust, heat and environmental elements. 7. Avoid running wires over, near or through sharp-edged surfaces. We suggest you also use rubber grommets to protect any wires routed through metal, especially the firewall. 8. When running the speaker cable from the amplifier, avoid running it ne\ ar sources of high current (i.e. wiring harnesses, battery cables). 9. When connecting the amp, the positive (+) speaker output from the bass\ amp connects to the positive (+) terminal and the negative output (-) co\ nnects to the negative (-) input terminal on the input cup located on the rea\ r of the subwoofer enclosure. DO NOT CONNECT AMP OR ANY AUDIO SOURCE TO ILLUMINATION INPUTS, AS DAMAGE TO LIGHTS WILL OCCUR. 10. For the illumination connection, the positive (+) output from your\ 1V system connects to the positive (+) input and the negative (ground) connect\ s to the negative (-) input on the input cup located on the rear of the sub\ woofer enclosure. Improper 1V polarity will not cause damage to the lights, but they will not illuminate.
