Installation Basics
Before you begin your installation, disconnect the NEGATIVE(-) terminal from your car’s battery. This safety precaution will avoid possible short circuits while wiring your amplier.
Rockville ampliers operate on 12-volt negative ground systems only. It is recommended that you layout your sound system design on paper rst. This will help you during the
installation so that you will have a wiring ow chart and not miss-wire any of your components.
Mount the amplier in the trunk or hatch area of your vehicle. Never install an amplier in the engine compartment or on the rewall. Please be sure to leave breathing room around the
amplier heat sink so that it can dissipate the heat it produces efciently. The amplier can be installed either horizontally or vertically.
When mounting the amplier on the trunk oor, be sure to watch for your gas tank, gas lines and electrical lines. Do not drill or mount any screws where they might penetrate the gas
tank of your car.
Mounting The Amplifier
The dB Series ampliers feature four mounting tabs located at the ampliers four corners. Choose a convenient mounting location with unobstructed airow. Using the supplied screws,
gently mount the amplier in to position.
DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN THE SCREWS.
