Installing your FPX amplifier
Installing this product requires technical skill and experience. If you are not sure of your ability to install
the amplifier, entrust this task to a Focal dealer in order to take full advantage of everything your FPX
amplifier can do.
Cabling your FPX amplifier
Only use the connection points specified in the user manual and the accessories supplied.
The speaker cable must ONLY be used to connect the amplifier to the speakers. The gauge of the
power cables must match that shown in the table (paragraph 3.1). This gauge depends on the power
of the amplifier and the cable length required. Use double or triple shielded RCA cables to prevent any
interference to the low level signal.
Operating time for your FPX amplifier
Avoid using the amplifier for extended periods without starting the vehicle. This can lead to flattening the
battery.
Ventilation
It is essential to leave the upper part of your FPX amplifier uncovered to prevent overheating.
Items required for installation (in addition to accessories provided)
• 2 appropriately sized cable sheaths (1 for the power cable and one for the set comprising speaker cables,
remote, RCA modulation)
