INSTALLATION
Wiring: Carefully place the speaker wire in a location that is clear of standing water and moving
components of the boat. The terminal cover is removable for wiring installation and, when locked
in place, it aids in ignition protection. Connect the speaker wire to the speaker terminals. Loop the
positive and negative wires into the pocket in the cover, then together and through the slot.
