stereo components can require extensive
experience with a variety of mechanical and
electrical procedures. Although these
instructions explain how to install a Kappa

10.1t in a general sense, they do not show
the exact installation methods 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:

tive environment 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

SPEAKER PLACEMENT

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™, 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 Fig 1, p.2).

INSTALLATION WARNINGS AND TIPS

• 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.
