OWNER’S MANUAL AV quattro / 3 3. SAFE SOUND AUDISON AMPLIFIERS CAN BE PART OF A HIGH POWER AUDIO SYSTEM THAT CAN GENERATE VERY HIGH UNDISTORTED SOUND PRESSURE LEVELS. PLEASE REMEMBER THAT LONG EXPOSURE TO AN EXCESSIVELY HIGH SOUND PRESSURE LEVEL MAY DAMAGE YOUR HEARING; THEREFORE, PLEASE USE COMMON SENSE AND PRACTICE SAFE SOUND. Safety must be at the forefront while driving.
OWNER’S MANUAL AV quattro / 4 4. GENERAL PRECAUTIONS • This symbol indicates that you have to pay attention to these instructions. Disregarding them might cause accidental harms or damage your amplifier. • Before installing the amplifier, make sure you carefully read and understand all instructions. • The vehicle electric system must have 12V DC voltage with negative to ground. Make sure your car has it in order to avoid any damages to your amplifier and to the vehicle.
