Fitting the crossover
Locate the crossovers in a dry, preferably ventilated area, using either the screws supplied or double-sided tape.
To open the box, squeeze the middle on the side, and remove the cover. In some cases, depending on your installation
and the space available, it maybe easier to route the cables and connect to the crossover, before securing the
crossover to the vehicle. Please check before.

Level adjustment of tweeter and midrange
The toggle switch inside the crossover allows the users to adjust the tweeter level according to their tastes and also
to the speaker location in the car, in order to get the best sound reproduction possible. Too much level in the treble
frequencies gives an aggressive sound and a level lack alters definition and dynamics.
If the tweeter is placed very close to the midbass driver, set it on 0.
If the tweeter is placed on the dashboard or on top of the door and the woofer in the door, set it on -3 ou 0dB.
