INSTALLATION WARNINGS AND TIPS

CROSSOVER INSTALLATION

IMPORT ANT:Installation of automotive stereo
components can require extensive experience
with a variety of mechanical and electrical proce­dures. Although these instructions explain how to
install a Kappa Series 2-Way Component System
in a general sense, they do not show the exact
installation method for your particular vehicle. If
you do not feel you have the experience, do not
attempt the installation yourself, but instead ask
your authorized Infinity car-audio dealer about
professional installation options.

WARNING: Playing loud music in an automobile
can permanently damage your hearing, as well as
hinder your ability to hear traffic. The maximum
volume levels achievable with Infinity speakers,
combined with high power amplification, may
exceed safe levels for extended listening. We
recommend using low volume levels when
driving. Infinity accepts no liability for hearing
loss, bodily injury or property damage as a
result of use or misuse of this product.

Kappa speakers are designed to be easily
installed in stock speaker locations. While mount­ing your speakers in the original factory locations
will, in most cases, provide excellent sonic
results, the best-sounding installations are a
result of adherence to a few basic rules.

• For the most spacious stereo image, place the
left and right speakers as far apart as possible.

• For enhanced center image, place the left and
right speakers so they are equidistant from the
listening position. If possible, try to place them
as far forward as possible.

• For best treble response when tweeters are
flush-mounted in the I-Mount™(pat. 5,859,917),
aim them at the listening position by adjusting
the tweeter angle in the cup, tightening the
small metal locking nut behind the assembly,
and rotating the entire assembly in its mount­ing location before tightening the large plastic
locking nut behind the panel (see Figure 6,
page 3).

• Always wear protective eyewear when using
any tools.

• Turn off all audio systems and other electrical
devices before you start. Disconnect the (–)
negative lead from your vehicle’s battery.

• Keep components in their package until final
installation. When moving a speaker, always
rest it with the cone or dome facing up. Never
use force to install any speaker.

• Check clearances on both sides of a planned
mounting surface before drilling any holes or
installing any screws. Remember that the
screws can extend behind the surface.

• At the installation sites, locate and make a note
of all fuel lines, hydraulic brake lines, vacuum
lines and electrical wiring. Use extreme caution
when cutting or drilling in and around these
areas.

CAUTION: In some cars, fuel tanks may be

located directly beneath the rear deck. Check
for adequate speaker basket clearance before
considering this location!

• Before drilling or cutting holes, use a utility
knife to remove unwanted fabric or vinyl, to
keep material from snagging in a drill bit
or saw.

• For door installations, check the clearance with
the windows throughout the range of the win­dow’s travel, and verify that a mounted speaker
will not interfere with the window crank or
power-window mechanism.

• If mounting components elsewhere, check for
clearance around rear deck torsion bars, glove
box or other structural elements.

• Do not mount components where they will
get wet.
