Thank you for purchasing JBL's Power

Series™ automotive loudspeakers. In
order that we may better serve you
should you require warranty service on
your new speakers, please retain your
original purchase receipt and return the
enclosed warranty registration card.

Important: Installation of automotive
stereo components can require extensive
experience performing a variety of
mechanical and electrical procedures.
Although these instructions explain in a
general sense how to install Power Series
loudspeakers, they may not show the
exact installation methods for your
particular vehicle. If you feel you lack the
tools or necessary experience, ask your
authorized JBL car-audio dealer about
professional installation options.

Installation Warnings and Tips

• Always wear protective eyewear when
using tools.

• Turn off all audio systems 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.

Caution: In some cars, fuel tanks may be
located directly beneath the rear deck.
Check for adequate speaker-basket
clearance before considering use of
this location!

• Before drilling for the speakers 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 in both
closed and open positions and verify
that a mounted speaker will not
interfere with the window crank or
power-window mechanism.

• If mounting speakers near rear-deck
torsion bars, glove box or other
structural elements, check for
clearance first.

• Do not mount speakers where they
will get wet.

Warning: Playing loud music in an auto­mobile can permanently damage your
hearing as well as hinder your ability to
hear traffic. We recommend listening at
low levels while in your car. JBL accepts
no liability for hearing loss, bodily injury
or property damage resulting from use or
misuse of this product.
