Please study and follow the safety guidelines found in chapter 2.0 of this manual! Use
a trained professional to ensure that all safety requirements are met to prevent the
speaker from falling.
The following tools and items are necessary for proper installation:
• Tape measure
• Pencil and saw or knife
• 3 mm Allen key or drill bit
• Tape
• Cut-out template
When the correct placement has been found, tape the mounting template to the
surface. Outline the cut-out area with a pencil.
Remove the template and drill holes for insertion of saw or knife. Saw/cut carefully
along the line marked with pencil.
When the hole for the loudspeaker is made, make sure that the loudspeaker cable
is not hanging loose inside the ceiling/wall. It must be securely fastened to the inside
of the ceiling/wall to prevent tension on the cable when the cable is connected with
the terminals of the loudspeaker. If left unsupported, cable can gradually come
loose, creating a poor electrical connection between wire and terminals (see figure
8 for correct fastening of the cable).
When the loudspeaker cable is fastened and the hole for the loudspeaker is prepared,
you are ready to connect the speaker cables. Connect cable to the terminals –
being careful to connect the amplifier's red (+) terminal to the loudspeaker's red (+)
terminal and the amplifier's black (-) terminal to the loudspeaker's black (-) terminal.
Please refer to chapter 4.5 of this manual.
When the cables are connected, turn on the system and listen to the loudspeakers
before final mounting to make sure that all connections are correct. Insert the
loudspeaker in the ceiling/wall opening and align the loudspeaker as described in
chapter 4.4.
NOTE: Be careful not to touch the drivers during installation. When the loudspeaker
is aligned, tighten the 4 screws in the loudspeaker brackets with a 3 mm Allen key/
bit so that the speaker is firmly mounted in place. Be careful to avoid over-tightening
the screws and shredding the threads.

You should expect the sound quality from your new speakers to gradually improve
during the first period of use. Nothing particular has to be done in order to run in
the speakers – but expect up to 100 hours of playback (depending on playback level)
before full performance level is reached.
