Basspro 8 Subwoofer

THANK YOU for choosing the JBL Basspro 8 powered subwoofer. To ensure maximum performance, we strongly recommend that you have it installed by a qualified professional – while these instructions offer general installation guidance, they do not show specific installation methods for your particular vehicle. If you do not have the necessary tools or hands-on experience, do not attempt the installation yourself; instead, ask your authorized JBL car-audio dealer about professional installation options.

INSTALLATION

IMPORTANT: Disconnect the vehicle’s negative (–) battery terminal before beginning the installation.

•Always wear protective eyewear when using tools.

•When making electrical connections, make sure they are secure and properly insulated.

•If you must replace the fuse, be sure to use the same type of fuse and current rating as that of the original.

CHOOSING A MOUNTING LOCATION

Choose a location that doesn’t prevent you from loading or unloading cargo, interfere with fold-down seats, or keep you from being able to open or close the trunk lid, or interfere with the safe operation of the vehicle.

FOR POWER

Connect the end of the red 16-gauge power wire to your vehicle’s + (positive)

battery terminal. Note: If an extension cable is necessary because of your
mounting location, we recommend that you connect the extension to the power
wire using solder. You must also install a fuse holder with a 10A fuse in-line and
within 18" of the battery.		EN
FOR GROUND
Connect the 16-gauge black ground wire to a solid, metal point on the vehicle’s
chassis using a ring terminal. Use sandpaper to clear the paint from the metal
surface at the chassis location. Use a star-type lock washer to secure the wire.

+12 volt Remote Ground

REMOTE IN

If you’re using line-level inputs to provide signal to the Basspro 8 (see below), uncouple the bullet connector on the blue/white wire, and connect the longer wire marked with “REMOTE IN” to the remote output wire on your source unit.

To radio remote output wire

If you’re using speaker-level inputs to provide signal to the Basspro 8 (see below), you must leave the bullet connector coupled so that the blue/white wire makes a loop.

When you’ve made all the necessary power and signal connections to the Basspro 8 wiring harness, plug the harness into the input marked “INPUT”.
