Installation
The following installation instructions are very basic. If you feel
unsure about personally installing this speaker system, Dual
recommends aquiring the services of a professional car audio
installation center.
Before installation, please follow these guidelines:
1. Be sure to carefully read and understand the instructions before
attempting to install this product.
2. For safety, disconnect the negative terminal from the battery prior to beginning the
installation.
3. For easier assembly: If additional wiring is required, we recommend
running all wires prior to mounting your speaker in place.
4. Use the highest quality connectors for a reliable installation and to
minimize signal or power loss.
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.

1. Determine where the speakers will
be mounted. Make sure the area
is large enough for the speaker
to mount evenly. Also ensure the
mounting location is deep enough for
the speaker to fit.
2. Refer to the specification chart to
determine the proper diameter hole
to cut for your speaker model.
3. If supplied, use the plastic mounting
ring as a template to mark the
locations for the mounting screws.
Drill the holes with a 3/32" bit.
4. Be sure to observe proper polarity
when connecting the wires.The
speaker's positive terminal is
indicated with a "+" symbol.
5. Fit the speaker to the hole cut-out.
Mount the speaker using the
supplied screws. If the speaker grill
is to be used, insert 4 screws into
the grill holes and then mount the
speaker.
