Introduction

The Jensen Power series

of

amplifiers

were designed to meet

or

exceed the

CEA-201 0

test standards. These new standards give

all

participating

manufacturers (and many don't participate)

a

baseline

when comparing

amplifiers

of

similar

power output. The CEA Power rating protects you, the

customer.

"Power

is

power-

it doesn't matter who makes

it," is not

always

true.

What does matter is whether the power can be produced

in

the first place.

The

RMS rating is the true power you are getting . At Jensen, to be fair to you and to

the competition,

we

rate our amps

in

the two most

popular

ratings,

including

the CEA RMS rating.

So feel

confident that your Jensen

purchase decision

was a sound one, and remember

"If

it's

Too

Loud, You're Too Old."

Before

You

Begin

We need to get the

legal stuff out

of

the way, so

please

keep reading.

Afterwards, you'

ll

be armed with the

knowledge

to

install your new hard-hitting,

speaker-pumping Jensen

amplifier.

Exposure to loud

sounds

or

music can permanently

damage your hearing.

Unfortunately, in many cases, the damage is not noticeable until years later.

In

addition,

loud

music may hinder your

ability

to hear traffic,

police,

and fire

or

emergency

vehicles. Please

be

responsible

and have respect for other people

by

listening

at moderate

volumes!

Warranty

Service

If

your Jensen

amplifier should ever require service, you

will need the

original

dated receipt.

If

you must return the unit for any reason,

always include the

receipt with the product.

mobile

mono

power

amplifier

is

the

amplifier

of

choice for

the

high demands

of

auto

sound reproduction. With its deep-bass

reproduction and

plenty

of

reserve power,

low

harmonic

distortion

and

neutral

reproduction,

the

Power series

of

amplifiers

takes

Mobile

Hi-Fi

to

new heights.

Like

all Jensen products, when

it

comes

to

accurate sound reproduction

the

Power series takes a back seat

to

no

one. Jensen

will

Installation

Before you begin the

installation

of

your Power series amp remember, there

are two ways to do

things-

right and twice! Use the proper

installation

techniques,

tools

and accessories to ensure that your Jensen Power series

amp

will

put out

all the power it was designed to.

If

necessary, seek a

professional installer

to have the

amplifier installed correctly.

Most

mobile

amp

installations

do not have the proper gauge wire for power and ground - do not

let your amp be a victim

of

this common

installation

oversight!

NOTE:

This device is a high-power audio amplifier intended for

installation in vehicles with a

12-Volt negative ground electrical system.

Attempting to connect

or

operate the amplifier with another type

of

electrical system

may

cause damage

to

the amplifier

or

the electrical

system.

Installation

Assistance

For

installation

assistance, call

1-800-323-4815 during

normal business hours,

or

visit www.jensen.com at any time.

Supplies

and

Tools Needed

To

install

the

amplifier,

you will

need

tools, supplies

and adapters.

It is best to

make sure you have everything you need before you start.
Supplies

• Black electrical

tape

• Amplifier Installation

Kit

Tools

• Cordless drill with assortment

of

bits

• Flat-head

and

Philips screwdrivers

•

Wire cutters/strippers

•

Crimping

tool

• 12-volt

test

light

or

digital multimeter

• Wire brush, sandpaper

or

scraping

tool

(ground connection to

vehicle should

be a

clean,

unpainted

metal

surface)

e)

Disconnect Battery

Disconnect the negative (-) battery

cable

before starting the

i

nstallation.

Check

the battery ground (there

should

be two (2) ground wires coming from the

battery-

one going to the starter mounting bolt

or engine

block and another

going to the

vehicle chassis) and make sure the battery is grounded to the

chassis with at

least

a

#4

gauge wire.

Also

check the

alternator

connections,

making sure they are

tight and free from corrosion, rust or dirt.

Location

and

Mounting

The

amplifier's

compact design

allows

great

flexibility

in

mountin

g.

Common

mounting

locations include

under the front passenger seat or in the trunk area.

When

selecting

a

location,

remember that

amplifiers

generate heat.

Select

a

location on a

flat

surface away from heat and moisture where air can

circulate

around the

amplifier.

Place

the

amplifier

in

the mounting

location

and mark the positions

of

the

holes

with a marker, pen or

pencil. Carefully drill

the mounting

holes

in the marked

positions, then use the supplied

mounting screws to

securely fasten the

amplifier

to the mounting surface.

WARNING: Do not cover the amplifier with carpets

or

enclose

it

behind

interior trim panels,

and

do

not

mount the amplifier in an inverted

or

upside down configuration.

Be

sure the mounting location

and

the

drilling

of

pilot holes will

not

damage

any

wires, control cables, fuel

lines, fuel tanks, hydraulic lines or other vehicle systems

or

components.

Routing Wires

Proper wiring connections are

illustrated

on the

following

pages.

If

wiring

connections are made

incorrectly,

the unit will

not operate

properly

and

could

become

permanently

damaged. Follow

the

installation

instructions

carefully,

or

have the

amplifier installed

by an experienced technician.

Power

Wiring

Charging System

In

some

cases,

the

installation

of

just

one

(1)

amplifier could be enough

to

overload your factory electrical system

(i.e.,

alternator). Depending on the

state

of

your electrical system and

overall

condition

of

your

vehicle,

you may

need

to

upgrade your alternator and battery. After

the

vehicle

is

started,

the

alternator provides

the

power

to

your electrical system,

not

the

battery. When

the

engine

is

running,

the

alternator

is

your main source

of

power. Upgrading

the

alternator should be your first consideration

if

you should experience a

voltage

drop

in

the

system when operating

your

audio system. Adding

capacitors

and/or

batteries

without

upg

rading

the

alternator will

only

make

the

problem worse because these devices

put

an

extra load on

the

alternator. After

upgrading

the

alternator, capacitors

and/or

batteries can be

installed

if

desired.

Use

the

following

recommended wire gauge

as

a

guide

when

installing your

amplifier(s):
