CEA 2031

Power handling on Rockford Fosgate speakers conform to CEA-2031 industry standards. This means your speaker has the capacity to handle

power under continuous demand, not instantaneous power handling that over time can damage voice coils.

VERIFIED WITH KLIPPEL

To adorn the ‘Veriﬁed with Klippel’ mark, the qualifying company’s loudspeaker engineering personnel must be trained and certiﬁed by

Klippel prior to using the three separate Klippel systems to design, develop and test. Rockford Fosgate has made the investment in Klippel to

deliver the best possible speakers and subwoofers to their customers.

Installation Considerations

Before beginning any installation, follow these simple rules:

1. Be sure to carefully read and understand the instructions before

attempting to install these speakers.

2. For safety, disconnect the negative lead from the battery prior to

beginning the installation.

3. For easier assembly, we suggest you run all wires prior to mounting

your speakers in place.

4. Use high quality connectors for a reliable installation and to minimize

signal or power loss.

5. Think before you drill! Be careful not to cut or drill into gas tanks, fuel

lines, brake or hydraulic lines, vacuum lines or electrical wiring when

working on any vehicle. If installation in a boat, take care not to cut or

drill through the main hull.

6. Never run wires underneath the vehicle. Running the wires inside the

vehicle or hull area provides the best protection.

7. Avoid running wires over or through sharp edges. Use rubber or

plastic grommets to protect any wires routed through metal, especially

the ﬁrewall.

Mounting

1. Determine where the speakers will be mounted. Ensure an area large

enough for the speaker to mount evenly. Be sure that the mounting

location is deep enough for the speaker to ﬁt; if mounting in a door,

operate all functions (windows, locks, etc.) through their entire

operating range to ensure there is no obstruction.

2. Refer to the speciﬁcation chart to determine the proper diameter hole

to cut for your speaker model. Cutting and mounting templates can be

found at www.rockfordfosgate.com.

3. Mark the locations for the mounting screws. Drill the holes with a

1/8” bit.

4. Feed the speaker wires through the cutout and connect to the speaker

terminals. Be sure to observe proper polarity when connecting the

wires.The speaker’s positive terminal is indicated with a “+”.

5. Fit the trim ring over the speaker and mount into place using four (4)

screws.

6. Tighten the screws until the speaker is snug in place to prevent

rattling. Do not over tighten the screws.

seguire queste semplici regole:

1. Assicuratevi di aver letto tutte le istruzioni con cura e di averle capite

prima di effettuare qualsiasi tentativo d’installazione neiconfronti

dell’unità.

2. Per motivi di sicurezza, scollegate il cavo negativo dalla batteria prima

di dare l’avvìo all’installazione.

3. Per facilitare il montaggio, vi suggeriamo di far scorrere tutti i ﬁli

prima di montare la vostra unità nella sua ubicazione.

4. Usate connettori di alta qualità per garantire un’installazione che dà

afﬁdamento e per ridurre al minimo la perdita di segnali o di potenza.

5. State attenti prima di trapanare! Cercate di non trapanare e di non

incidere i serbatoi della benzina; le condutture del carburante, dei

freni, del sistema idraulico e a depressione; nonché i ﬁli elettrici

quando state lavorando su qualsiasi veicolo.

6. Non fate mai scorrere i ﬁli sotto il veicolo.Avrete la protezione migliore

faccendo scorrere i ﬁli all’interno del veicolo.

7. Evitate di far scorrere i ﬁli sopra o attraverso delle estremità afﬁlate.

Usate guarnizioni di tenuta in gomma o in plastica per proteggere

qualsiasi ﬁlo che passi attraverso del metallo, soprattutto il

paraﬁamma.

Montaggio

1. Decidete dove montare gli altoparlanti.Assicuratevi che sia un’area

abbastanza grande per poter montare l’altoparlante a livello e

abbastanza profonda per poterlo collocare comodamente. Se lo

montate all’interno di uno sportello, controllate tutte le funzioni

(ﬁnestre, serrature, ecc.), una alla volta, per assicurarvi che non ci

siano ostruzioni.

2. Fate riferimento alla tabella delle speciﬁche per stabilire il diametro

corretto del foro che dovrete praticare per il modello del vostro

altoparlante.Si possono trovare le sagome per il taglio e il montaggio

presso www.rockfordfosgate.com/rftech.

3. Marcare le posizioni per le viti di montaggio. Praticare i fori con una

punta da trapano di 1/8 di pollice (3,2 mm).

4. Passare i cavi del diffusore tramite l’apertura e collegarli ai terminali.

Veriﬁcare che la polarità sia corretta quando si collegano i cavi. Il

terminale positivo del diffusore è identiﬁcato dal “+”.

5. Adattare l’anello di ﬁnitura sul diffusore e montare in posizione

servendosi delle quattro (4) viti.
