Wall-Mounting The Speakers - Yamaha YHT-494 Mode D'emploi

You can mount the speakers on the wall as follows.
Unless you are very competent at DIY, do not wall-mount the
speaker yourself. Ask your dealer or a qualified contractor to
do the installation for you. Incorrect installation may cause
the speaker to fall, causing damage or injury.
• Surround speakers (NS-B285)
1
Install screws into a solid wall or wall support, as
shown below. Use 3.5 to 4 mm (1/8") diameter self-
tapping screws.
2
Hang each speaker by its keyhole slots onto the
protruding screws.
Note
• Make sure the shaft of the screw is seated in the narrow part
of the keyhole slot. Otherwise, the speaker may fall.

Cautions
• The front/center speaker (NS-BR300) weighs 1.5 kg
(3 lbs.). The surround speakers (NS-B285) weigh 0.45 kg
(1 lbs.). Do not mount the speakers on thin plywood or on
walls with a soft surface material. Otherwise, the screws
may pull out of the surface and the speakers may fall,
causing damage or injury.
• Do not affix the speakers to walls by using nails,
adhesives, or unsuitable hardware. Long-term use and
vibration may cause the speakers to fall.
• To prevent tripping accidents, secure loose speaker cables
to walls, floors, etc., using suitable fasteners.
• Mount the speakers at positions on the walls where
people are unlikely to bump their heads.
• Attach the speakers to a rack or wall. Do not attach the
speakers to walls made of weak materials, such as plaster
or veneered woods. Doing so may cause the speakers to
fall.
• Use commercially available screws that can support the
weight of the speakers.
• Only use the screws specified for attaching the speakers.
Using fasteners other than those specified, such as short
screws, nails, or double-sided tape, may cause the
speakers to fall.
• When connecting the speakers, secure the speaker cables
so that they do not hang loose. If your foot or hand
accidentally gets caught on a loose speaker cable, the
speaker may fall, causing damage or injury.
• After installing each speaker, check that it's fixed securely.
Yamaha accepts no responsibility whatsoever for
accidents due to improper installation.
