Connecting to 12VDC
Power Supply

The SoundExtreme does not have an internal battery. It must be
connected to an external 12VDC power supply to function. When you install
the SoundExtreme to a battery or a voltage regulator on a golf cart, a boat,
a quad bike, a UTV, or another vehicle, you need to make sure that your
vehicle battery or battery pack terminal voltage is 12VDC. If the battery
terminal voltage is not 12V, you will need a DC–DC converter with output
12V. Connecting the SoundExtreme to a non-12VDC power source will lead
to a malfunction or damage to the speaker.

WARNING: Even when powered off, the SoundExtreme will draw a small
amount of power from your battery. To prevent draining your battery when
your SoundExtreme or powersports vehicle are not in use for more than
48hrs, we suggest unplugging the SoundExtreme from the battery or
adding toggle switch. (Toggle switch sold separately.)

Attach the 6ft Power Cable to the 12V Power In SAE Connector (RED).
Use Caution: Do NOT connect to 12V Battery if the Power In SAE

Connector is wet. Contact may cause electric shock and injury if wet.

Remove the 15 Amp Blade Fuse from the Fuse Holder.
Use Caution: Do NOT remove Fuse if the Fuse Holder is wet. An improperly

fitted cap may cause electric shock and injury if wet.
To close properly, push firmly to be sure the cap snaps into place.
