Always mount the amplifier in a place that protects the amplifier from the elements. In addition, mount the amplifier on a stable, flat surface. NOTE: Mounting amplifiers upside down is not recommended and may cause premature thermal shutdown. WARNING! Do not mount any amplifier in the engine compartment. Amplifiers are not designed to endure the harsh environment of the exterior elements. Passenger Compartment If you are going to mount the amplifier in the passenger compartment, make sure you have adequate room for ventilation. The amplifiers have been designed to make under-seat mounting possible. When mounting your amplifier under a seat or similar area, keep a minimum of 1" of clearance around the amplifier for adequate cooling. Trunk Compartment Mounting your amplifier in the trunk provides excellent performance as long as you do not restrict the airflow around the heatsink of the amplifier. For optimal results, mount the ©2004 Directed Electronics, Inc. amplifier with as much clearance as possible. This type of mounting will yield the best cooling due to the convection effect of the amplifier chassis. General Precautions and Installation Tips WARNING! Be careful not to cut or drill into gas tanks, fuel lines, brake lines, hydraulic lines, vacuum lines, or electrical wiring when working on your vehicle. Disconnect the vehicle's ground wire at the battery before making or breaking connections to the audio system's power supply terminals. Do not use this amplifier unmounted. Failing to securely mount the amplifier can result in damage or injury, particularly in the event of an accident. An unmounted amplifier becomes a dangerous projectile in the event of a crash. Never mount the amplifier where it might get wet. Mount the amplifier so the wire connections will not be pulled. Route the wires where they will not be scraped, pinched or damaged in any fashion. The +12V power supply wire must be fused as close as possible to the battery terminal, ideally within 18". Use the recommended fuse size or circuit breaker listed in the Power Connections section of this manual. If you need to replace the fuse plugged into the side of the amplifier, replace the fuse with the same size ATC / MAXI type fuse that came with the amplifier. If you are not sure as to the correct value, refer to the Power Connections section of this manual for details. Using a higher current fuse may result in damage to the amplifier that is not covered under warranty. NOTE: Make sure all the equipment in the system is turned off when making or break ing connections to the input RCA's or speaker terminals. Turn on the system and slowly turn up the volume control only after double checking all wire connections. Power for systems with a single amplifier can be supplied by most automotive electrical systems. Systems with multiple amplifiers may require a higher capacity battery, alternator or the use of a storage capacitor. We strongly recommend the use of a Directed Audio Essentials power capacitor with an extra battery in larger stereo systems. Orion amplifiers generate a certain amount of heat as part of normal operation. Be sure the area around the amplifier is unobstructed to allow adequate air circulation. Remember, beach blankets, last week's laundry, school books and homework papers located on top of the amplifier do not improve air flow and may become damaged. Tools of the Trade Listed below are the majority of the tools required to perform an installation. Having the proper tools will make the installation that much easier. Some of these tools are necessities. Some just make the job easier. . Allen Wrenches (2.5mm and 3mm) . DMM or VOM . Electric drill with assorted drill bits . Grommets . Heat shrink tubing . Marking pen . Nylon tie straps . Phillips and flat blade screw drivers ©2004 Directed Electronics, Inc. . Pliers (standard and needle nose) . Reference CD with 1 kHz Sine Wave at 0dB level (all bits high) . RTA (real time analyzer) . Soldering iron and solder . Utility knife . Wire brush or sandpaper for chassis grounding . Wire crimper . Wire cutters . Wire strippers Step By Step Installation Step 1 Determine the location for the amplifier. Refer to the Choosing Mounting Locations section of this guide for detailed information. Step 2 Decide on the system configuration for your amplifier. For system suggestions, refer to the Speaker Connections section of this guide. Step 3 Run all the wires from the amplifier location to the speakers, source unit, and battery. Do not connect the battery at this time. Be sure to run RCAs and power and speaker wires away from factory electrical wires and system as they pose a great potential for induced system noise. Step 4 Pre-drill amplifier mounting holes. Be sure to "think before you drill". Gas tanks, fuel lines, and other obstructions have a nasty way of hiding themselves. For best results use a marking pen to mark the mounting holes and pre-drill these holes with a standard 1/8" drill bit....
