Be sure to mount the amp
to allow reasonable airflow over the cooling fins.
Mark the location for the mounting screw holes by positioning the amp where you
it and use a scribe (or one of the mounting
screws) inserted in each of the mounting holes to mark
the mounting surface for the mounting surface. If the mounting surface is carpeted, measure the
hole centers and mark with a felt tip pen.
Before attempting to drill the mounting holes, take

When making electrical connections to your amplifier, please observe the following:
Use at least 8 gauge wire for power and ground connections.
Wire the amplifier directly to the car battery.

About power fuses:
Pyramid Arctic Series amplifiers feature built-in fuse systems. These fuses protect both the
amplifier and the electrical system in your vehicle from fault conditions. If you ever need to replace
the fuse in your Pyramid Arctic Series amp, use a fuse of exactly the same type and rating. A
different
type or rating of fuse may result in damage or fire.
