Congratulations!

Thank you for choosing a new Diamond Audio amplier. Diamond Audio ampliers are engineered and produced with the highest quality materi­als and incorporate the latest technology. We think you will nd your new Diamond Audio amplier meets or exceeds your expectations and
provides excellent value.

Properly installed, your new Diamond Audio amplier will provide years of high quality sonic reproduction. Before installing the amplier in your
vehicle, please read this entire manual carefully. It is required reading for the protection of your vehicle and for the maximum performance of
your mobile audio system. All Diamond Audio ampliers have been extensively tested and “burned-in” for maximum reliability. If after reading
this manual, you still have questions regarding this product, we recommend that you contact your authorized Diamond Audio dealer for expert
installation assistance.

If you need assistance with repair or warranty, detailed warranty and return/repair information is listed in the back of this manual. Be sure you
record your serial number, model number and date of purchase for your amplier as this will be necessary for any returns.

Please Practice Safe Sound!

Continuous exposure to sound pressure levels over 100 dB may cause permanent hearing loss. High powered mobile audio systems may produce
sound pressure levels well over 130dB. Use common sense and practice safe sound.
