IMPORTANT NOTICE

PLEASE READ FIRST BEFORE INSTALLING SPEAKERS
Congratulations on your purchase of high-quality speakers from Alpine. Your listening satisfaction is important to us. In order to maximize and maintain peak speaker performance the following guidelines are being provided. Please read this notice carefully before operating the speakers.

  1. Do not over-drive the amplifier. Over-driving the amplifier will result in distortion or clipping and can damage any speaker.
  2. Make sure gain controls are properly set. (Follow instructions in amplifier owner’s manual.)
  3. Make sure that the speaker is properly rated for the amplifier.
  4. Make sure that volume, bass, treble, equalization or crossover settings do not cause the amplifier to over-drive.

Failure to follow these guidelines may result in burned or damaged speaker voice coils which will void your warranty. If further assistance is necessary, please contact your Alpine authorized dealer.
