Series 1 amplifiers will naturally put an extra load on your battery and
charging system. We recommend you check your alternator capac-
ity to ensure ample charging capability to handle the additional load
of your new Series 1 equipment. Stock electrical systems in good
condition will typically handle the extra load of any individual Series
1 unit without problems, although battery and alternator life may be
slightly reduced. If problems arise, we suggest you first check the
charging system, then use a heavy duty battery and/or a high output
alternator.

The mounting location and position of the Series 1 will have a great
effect on its ability to dissipate the heat generated in normal opera-
tion. The Series 1 has a heatsink designed for heat dissipation and
internal overheating shutoff circuitry to avoid overheating. The
amplifier is reasonably tolerant of mounting variations, however,
care should be taken to ensure adequate ventilation.

during the summer months. Since the thermal shutoff point for the
Series 1 is 195
Series 1 is 195
°

C), it is easy to see that the amplifier must be
mounted for maximum cooling capability. Mounting the amplifier
on the floor or under the rear parcel tray prevents sufficient convec-
tional air flow cooling. Mounting the unit vertically on a surface with
the fin grooves running up and down usually results in the best
cooling.
