multielements owner’s manual

THANK YOU

for purchasing JBL Grand Touring® Series automotive speakers. We’ve organized this manual to make your installation as simple and trouble-free as possible. Please read it thoroughly before proceeding. Remember to keep your sales receipt and this manual in a safe place so both are available for future reference.

INSTALLATION WARNINGS AND TIPS

REAR DECK

PRECAUTION

In some cars, fuel tanks may be located directly beneath the rear deck. Before installation, make sure there is adequate speaker basket clearance before considering this location!

INSTALLATION TIPS

Always wear protective eyewear when using any tools.

Turn off all audio components and other electrical devices before you start. Disconnect the

(–) negative lead from your vehicle’s battery.

Keep speakers 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.

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 speakers elsewhere, check for clearance around rear deck torsion bars, glove box or other structural elements.

Do not mount speakers where they will get wet.
