a broad range of mobile audio applications
to produce extended, powerful bass in a
limited amount of vehicle space. The installa-
tion can require some extensive knowledge
of the car environment. Although these

Dayton subwoofer in a general sense, they do
not show box-construction details and exact

vehicle. If you do not feel you have the
necessary tools or experience, do not attempt
the installation yourself. Instead ask your
authorised VDO Dayton dealer about
professional installation options to ensure
maximum subwoofer performance.
Remember to keep your sales receipt with
this manual in a safe place so both are
available for future reference.

General information
on loudspeaker installation
Recommendations
• While preparing the installation of your
subwoofer, please leave it in the box so as
to avoid any damage.
• Please contact your dealer for the correct
mounting solution for your car so that you
allow your subwoofer to perform to the
maximum. For example, there must be
enough room for the cone to extend to its
full excursion.
• Please ensure that the subwoofer does not
hinder the safe operation of the vehicle.
• Due to the weight and size of this
subwoofer, it will work at its best if the
correct mounting solution is custom made
for your vehicle. To get the most detail and
power from your loudspeaker, make sure
that it has a solid mounting free from
vibration. We recommend the use of an
enclosure.
• To further improve the installation, we
recommend the use of damping material.
Please consult your dealer for details.
• Finally, ensure that the installation is
completely airtight.
Adjusting subwoofer level
The subwoofer level can be adjusted to suit
the environment, placement and personal
preference. You should not be able to hear
the subwoofer as a separate source. Its sound
should be an integrated part of your total
system.
Let your personal preference be the deciding
factor!
