INSTALLATION
This section lists Mounting and Wiring Precautions for installing the Clarion
DPX1001.2. These safeguards provide enough detail to complete the
installation successfully. If you do not have the necessary skills, Clarion
recommends consulting your authorized Clarion dealer for installation.
MOUNTING PRECAUTIONS
Although the Clarion DPX1001.2 incorporate heat sinks and protection cir-
cuits, mounting the amplifier in a tight space without any air movement can
still damage internal circuitry over time. Choose a site that provides ade-
quate ventilation around the amplifier. For easy system set-up, mount the
amplifier so the front panel controls can be accessible after installation.
In addition, observe the following precautions:
1. For the most efficient cooling, mount the amplifier so cool air runs along
the length of the fins rather than across them. Remember, any moving air
will dissipate heat.
2. Mount the amplifier on a rigid surface. Avoid mounting to subwoofer
enclosures or areas prone to vibration. Do not install the amplifier on plastic
or other combustible materials.
3. Prior to drilling, make sure proposed mounting holes will not cut into the
fuel tank, fuel lines, brake lines (under chassis) or electrical wiring.
WIRING PRECAUTIONS
Read all wiring precautions. If you are not sure of the connections, contact
your authorized Clarion dealer.
1. Before installation, make sure the source unit Power switch is in the OFF
position.
2. Disconnect the negative (-) lead of the battery before making any power
connections.
3. When making connections, be sure that each connection is clean and
secure. Insulate final connections with electrical tape or shrink tubing.
Failure to do so may damage your equipment.
4. A secure clean ground connection is critical to the performance of your
Clarion amplifier. Use the shortest ground wire possible and securely con-
nect to the car chassis to minimize resistance and avoid noise problems.
