component systems owner’s manual
THANK YOU for purchasing a JBL
Grand Touring
®
Series automotive loudspeaker component system.
We’ve organized this manual to make your installation as simple and trouble-free as possible. Please read it thoroughly before proceeding. Remember to keep your sales receipt and this manual in a safe place so both are available for future reference.
INSTALLATION WARNINGS AND TIPS
ABOUT THESE
INSTRUCTIONS
Installation of automotive stereo components can require extensive experience with a variety of mechanical and electrical procedures. Although these instructions explain how to install Grand
Touring Series Component Systems in a general sense, they do not show the exact installation methods for your particular vehicle.
If you do not feel you have the experience, do not attempt the installation yourself, but instead ask your authorized JBL car audio dealer about professional installation options.
LOUD MUSIC AND
HEARING
Playing loud music in an automobile can hinder your ability to hear traffic, as well as permanently damage your hearing. The maximum volume levels achievable with
JBL speakers, combined with high power amplification, may exceed safe levels for extended listening.
We recommend using low volume levels when driving.
JBL accepts no liability for hearing loss, bodily injury or property damage as a result of use or misuse of this product.
REAR DECK
PRECAUTION
In some cars, fuel tanks may be located directly beneath the rear deck. Before installation, make sure there is adequate speaker basket clearance before considering this location!
ABOUT THE CONTENTS
The Grand Touring Series
Component System includes:
• 130mm, 160mm and 165mm woofer
• Grille and mounting adapter(s)
• 1" tweeter with surface/flush
I-Mount™ (patent no. 5,859,917) kits
• Crossover network with mounting screws
NOTE: The supplied crossover network is designed to work with the above-listed transducers. Do not substitute another crossover network or use other speakers when connecting the system (see
Figure 8A and 8B).
INSTALLATION TIPS
• Always wear protective eyewear when using any tools.
• Turn off all audio components and other electrical devices before you start. Disconnect the
(–) negative lead from your vehicle’s battery.
• Keep speakers in their package until final installation. When moving a speaker, always rest it with the cone or dome facing up.
Never use force to install any speaker.
• Check clearances on both sides of a planned mounting surface before drilling any holes or installing any screws. Remember that the screws can extend behind the surface.
• At the installation sites, locate and make a note of all fuel lines, hydraulic brake lines, vacuum lines and electrical wiring. Use extreme caution when cutting or drilling in and around these areas.
• Before drilling or cutting holes, use a utility knife to remove unwanted fabric or vinyl, to keep material from snagging in a drill bit or saw.
• For door installations, check the clearance with the windows throughout the range of the window’s travel, and verify that a mounted speaker will not interfere with the window crank or power window mechanism.
• If mounting speakers elsewhere, check for clearance around rear deck torsion bars, glove box or other structural elements.
• Do not mount speakers where they will get wet.
• If possible, select a mounting site for the crossover network that is near the speakers and provides easy access for connections.
