INSTALLATION

Professional installation by an authorized DS18/S Series amps dealer is highly recommended!. Otherwise, the performance of your new gear may not be satisfactory. In the event that you decide to do your own installation, please read and follow this manual carefully. Failure to do so may compromise the integrity of this product, your automobile, and possibly void the product warranty. Amplifiers are generally mounted in the hatch/trunk are of a car or SUV, and under or behind the seat of most pick up trucks. Select a location that will provide adequate ventilation for the amplifier. Avoid mounting the amplifier with the fins facing down. The fins should be facing up, either vertically or horizontally. Secure the amplifier with the screws provided. Before securing the amplifier, inspect the mounting location carefully to ensure that you do not drill into or damage any electrical, hydraulic, fluid or fuel lines.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTION

Before you start, disconnect the negative cable from the car battery. Tape up the end so it is isolated from the battery.
Run an appropiate guage wire from the battery to the amplifier. Plan this part of the installation carefully. This cable will carry very high current. If it should short to the body and it is not properly fused it could catch fire.
Connect the power wire to the battery using a fuse capable of the total current load of all amplifiers connected. Don’t install the fuse yet. Wait until the end. Locate the fuse as close as possivle to the battery. If the fuse is further than 18 inches (wire lenght) from the battery you should reevaluate the wire and fuse placement.
Find the closest clear metal area to the amp for a ground, sand, grind or scrape all paint and undercoating from the body and screw the ground securely in place. It is advisable to test the ground with an ohmmeter between the ground cable and the negative battery cable to insure a good low resistance connection. Some alloys used in modern cars do not offer the best ground. If you believe this is the case consult with the vehicle manufacturer.
Run the speaker wire to the speakers. It is adviced that you leave some extra wire at this point. You can “clean it up” later.
If you haven’t already done so, mount the amp now.
Connect the power and ground to the amplifier. Only after this step should you install the fuse at the battery.
Connect the remote wire from the head unit to the amplifier. Now is a good time to turn on the amp for the first time. Make sure it turns on properly and does not go into protection. Connect the speaker wires to the amp and speakers (make sure the amp is off first). Make sure the polarity (+and-) is correct. Connect the RCA’s to the amp.
Double check the amplifier controls at this time.
Make sure everything is set correctly for your system.
Now you’re ready to play it for the first time.
It is best to leave the gain all the way down at first. Start with the head until volume low and work your way up.
Now you can tune the amp. Take your time and make only one adjusment at a time. It may take some time to get the system fully adjusted. During this time the amp is drawing current from the battery. You should check the battery voltage from time to time and re-charge it if it gets low. That’s it. You’re done. Now have fun.
