THANK YOU
for choosing the
JBL
BassPro SL2. BassPro SL2 has been
designed
to
provide the kind of high-performance low-frequency
reproduction that used
to
require big, clumsy enclosures, large
amplifiers, and complex installation. To ensure maximum
performance,
we
strongly recommend that installation be
entrusted
to
a qualified professional.
WARNING
Playing loud music
in
an
automobile can permanently damage
your hearing as well as hinder your ability
to
hear traffic. We
recommend using low volume levels while driving. Harman
International accepts no liability for hearing loss, bodily injury or
property damage resulting from the use or misuse of this product.
INSTALLATION
Choosing a mounting location
Choose a location that doesn't interfere with the loading
or
unloading
of
cargo, fold-down rear seats, or opening or closing
of
the trunk lid. The best location
is
likely
to
be the front
or
rear
corner of the trunk or luggage compartment. These locations,
in
addition
to
being out
of
the way, will provide the best sonic
reproduction in the 60Hz - 1 00Hz range because the output
of
the woofer will be "corner loaded" against the walls
of
the vehicle.
In
any case, the BassPro SL2 must not interfere with the safe
operation of the vehicle.
CAUTION: Make sure mounting screws will not puncture wiring
harnesses, brake or fuel lines,
or
the vehicle's fuel tank. Some or
all
of
these may be located behind or under the mounting surface.
Mounting BassPro SL2
IMPORTANT: Disconnect the vehicle's negative(-) battery
terminal before beginning the installation.

NOTE: If you are using only the BassPro SL2's line-level
(RCA)
inputs, you must connect the remote wire from the BassPro SL2
to
the system's head unit so BassPro SL2 will tum on and off with the
system. If you will be using the speaker-level outputs from your
head unit, you
do
not need
to
connect the remote output. The
BassPro SL2's speaker-level inputs will sense voltage on the
speaker wires and the BassPro SL2 will turn itself on. (See Audio
Sense Switch, below.)
Input Connections
Connect the subwoofer output from the
source unit
to
either the left or right
line-level input. If your source unit does
not have a dedicated subwoofer output
you can connect the rear left/right
outputs
to
the BassPro SL2's left and
right inputs.
If your source unit doesn't have
line-level outputs you can use the
included speaker-level input harness
to
connect the BassPro SL2
to
the source
unit's speaker outputs. See the
illustration for the wiring configuration.
