Before You begin Installation
Before you begin, you will need tools, supplies and adapters. It is best to make sure you
have everything you need before you start.
Amplier Location
Allow air circulation around the amplier. When selecting a location, remember that
ampliers generate heat. Select a location where air can circulate around the amplier. Do
not cover the AMPLIFIER with carpets or enclose it behind interior trim panels. Every in-
stallation will be a bit dierent based upon vehicle design, Check all locations and place-
ments carefully before making any cuts or connections.
Disconnect Battery
Before you begin, always disconnect the battery negative terminal.
Important:
If wiring connections are made incorrectly the unit will not operate properly and could
be damaged. Follow the installation instructions carefully or have the amplier installed by
an authorized dealer.
ings to remember when Installing your ampliers.

and load impedance instructions be adhered to at all times. Minimum impedance recommended
for all digital monoblock ampliers (MILLE, MEZZO, RAPID, AURORA & APOLLO ) are 1
ohm. For master/slave straped operation, the minimum impedance is 2 ohm. Each master
amplier must be paired up with a exact same model slave amp. Fuses are equipped with for
MILLE (ЗОАхЗ АТС). MEZZO, RAPID, AURORA & APOLLO are not equipped with the fuse.
Fuse ratings are 90A for MILLE, 120A for MEZZO, 150A for RAPID, 250A for AURORA and
450A for APOLLO single unit. ese fuse ratings should be sucient under normal working
conditions. However, if the ampliers are overloaded ( see minimum impedance above ) fuses
may blow. erefore, please try to avoid operating the ampliers under these conditions.
1. Mount the ampliers where air ow is the best.
2. Mount the ampliers to a solid surface away from vibration, as these ampliers are
very heavy and the vibration can damage the ampliers.
3. Take extreme caution when mounting the ampliers, so as not to damage the chassis
with a drill or screwdriver.
4. Run 0 AWG or 4AWG wire from the battery, using fuses with 1 2" of the positive bat-
tery terminal.
5. Run OAWG or 4AWG ground wire as short as possible, to the closest chassis ground
point. Be sure to remove the paint around the chassis ground point to provide a more solid
electrical connection.
