Safety considerations when installing
- Please remember that these are heavy products that will be installed in a boating environment. These vehicles can travel at high speeds and be unstable. So please consider this and use extreme caution. Some safety considerations include:
- Do not mount the speakers in a location where someone may either walk into or strike their head. During a turbulent ride, please make sure that you do not loosen your footing and fall or hit the unit, or it may cause injury.
- Secure the wires to the speakers in multiple locations along their route to your audio source, so that there are no hanging loops of wire. Having unsecure wires in any hanging conditions can cause entanglement and injury.
- Tighten the aluminum bands with rubber inserts using care. Do not over-compress the rubber inserts. After installation is complete, please recheck all bolts and tighten them further if needed before taking your boat or vessel ut or an audio adventure.
- Do not install these speakers where they may block the view of the pilot and prevent safe operation of the vessel or vehicle.
Installation instructions
STEP1
To adjust the mounting angle, loosen the metal base of the mounting band by unbolting the two screws. Make sure to put all components of the mounting hardware in a safe location.
STEP2 Twist the metal base to determine the optimal mounting angle for the speaker on the cage bar. Then secure the metal base by tightening the two screws.
STEP3 Place a supplied rubber (49 x 40 mm) pad on the metal base of the mounting band to prevent abrasion and secure clamping.
STEP4
Place a supplied rubber strip around the cage bar to prevent abrasion and secure clamping. Then push two supplied aluminum bands over the cage bar, and align the aluminum bands with the metal base on the speakers.
STEP5 As illustrated, secure the aluminum bands to the metal base using a pair of M6 x 75mm screws, M6 flat washers, and M6 locknuts. The locknuts must be installed into the hex shaped recess on one end of each aluminum band. Hand-tighten the screws to the degree which allows just enough freedom to rotate the speaker around the cage bar.
STEP6 Speaker installation now completed.
Wiring
- LED wire connection Using the supplied LED connection wire with a female connector, connect the two speakers through the male LED connectors.
- Speaker wire connection Using speaker wires (not included), connect the two speakers to the audio outputs on your 12VDC amplifier. Make sure to observe polarity.
- LED power connection Connect one end of the supplied LED power wire to the power input on the speaker, and the other end to the 12V source battery (red color to the positive terminal, black to the negative terminal).
Warning:
- For safety, disconnect the negative terminal from the source battery prior to wiring.
- Note your amplifier impedance stability prior to wiring.
- Use only high quality marine-grade speaker wires. Make sure wires are not squeezed or damaged by sharp edges.

Battery replacement
The remote control is powered by a CR2025 coin battery. If the battery is depleted, replace it with a new CR2025 coin battery.
- Find the battery compartment at the back of the remote control. Pull the battery tray out.
- Load a new battery with the correct polarity as shown on the tray.
- Replace the battery tray. Make sure the tray is securely inserted.
Important notes on battery
- The danger of explosion if the battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace only with the same type or equivalent type. Observe correct polarity while inserting the battery
- Do not leave the battery near fire or under direct sunlight. Do not place the remote control in hot places (e.g. on the dashboard). This may cause fire, explosion or excessive heat. Remove the battery from the remote control if it is not used for a long time to avoid battery leakage.
- Do not recharge, dismantle or short-circuit the battery or throw it into the fire. This may cause a risk of explosion or battery leakage. If spilled fluid comes in contact with your skin or clothing, immediately rinse with water and consult a doctor.
- The remote control contains a coin/button-type battery, which can be swallowed. Keep the battery out of reach of children at all times! if swallowed, the battery can cause serious injury or death. If you suspect that a battery has been swallowed or placed inside any part of the body, seek immediate medical attention.
