FCC INFORMATION
WARNING:
Changes or modications not expressly approved by the party responsible for
compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a
Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful
interference in a residential installation. This unit generates, uses, and can radiate
radio frequency energy, and if not installed and used in accordance with the
instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular
installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television
reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment o and on, the
user is encouraged to try and correct the interference by one or more of the
following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
• Connect the equipment to an outlet on a circuit dierent from that to which the
receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the
following two conditions:
1. This device may not cause harmful interference.
2. This device must accept any interference received, including interference that
may cause undesired operation.
PRECAUTIONS
• Do not block ventilation openings or cooling ns.
• Avoid installing near sources of moisture or heat.
• Disconnect the negative battery terminal before installation.
• Ensure secure mounting to avoid vibration damage.
• Use correct fuse rating only.

MOUNTING AND INSTALLATION
Choose a Mounting Location
• Select a location in your vehicle with low vibration, adequate ventilation, minimal
dust, and no moisture.
• Allow airow over the cooling ns.
• Position the amp and use a scribe or screw through each mounting hole to mark
the surface. If mounting on carpet, measure hole centers and mark with a felt-tip
pen.
Caution:
• Check behind the mounting surface for wires, lines, or devices before drilling!
• Drill pilot holes, insert the mounting screws, and tighten securely.
Electrical Connections
• Use at least 8-gauge wire for power and ground connections.
• Connect directly to the car battery.
• Keep the ground wire as short as possible, connected to a solid chassis ground.
• Wire the Remote terminal to the auto start lead from your head unit, equalizer,
or power antenna.
Fuse Information
Pyramid Arctic Series ampliers have built-in fuse systems to protect both the
amp and your vehicle. Only replace with a fuse of the same type and rating.
Using a dierent fuse can cause damage or re.

CONTROLS & INDICATORS
Crossover Mode Selector:
• “FULL” for normal full-range systems
• “LOWPASS” or “HIGHPASS” for ltered output
Input Level Control:
• Match the output of your head unit to the amp.
• Set the head unit volume around 2 o’clock, adjust the amp gain until distortion
occurs, then back o slightly.
Low Pass Frequency Control:
Sets the upper frequency limit when “LOWPASS” is selected.
High Pass Frequency Control:
Sets the lower frequency limit when “HIGHPASS” is selected.
Bass Boost Level Control: Adjusts bass up to +18 dB.
