FOLLOW THESE EASY STEPS:

1.Make sure the material into which you plan to mount the speakers (plaster, drywall, paneling, stone, etc.) can support the weight of the speakers (see specification page for the weight of your model).

2.Make sure the locations you select do not conceal studs, elec- trical wiring or plumbing. Prior to installation, hold the speaker in your chosen location to make sure it safely clears obstacles such as studs, corners, beams, lighting fixtures and door/ window frames. Your cutout must be at least 1" from adjoining walls or ceiling, internal studs or plumbing.

3.Using the template, trace the installation location with a pen- cil. You can do this by holding the template in your preferred location and tracing within it or around it. This is the exact cutout size [Figure 6].

4.Carefully cut the hole with the appropriate cutting tool for your wall or ceiling material. Start the hole by drilling a hole on the inside of the tracing (with the drill bit touching the line). Use this hole to insert the saw or knife and begin cutting [Figure 7].

5.Once you have cut the hole, fish your previously positioned wiring out of the hole and connect the speaker. Follow the hookup directions included with your receiver and in this manual.

SUIVEZ CES SIMPLES ETAPES:

1.Assurez-vous que le matériau dans lequel vous comptez installer vos haut-parleurs (plâtre, placoplâtre, lambris, pierre, etc.) peut supporter le poids des haut-parleurs (voir la fiche technique pour le poids d’un modèle particulier).

2.Assurez-vous que l’endroit choisi pour l’installation (mur ou plafond) ne dissimule pas de montant, de solive, de fil élec- trique ou de plomberie. Avant d’installer le haut-parleur, tenez- le à l’endroit choisi pour vous assurer qu’il sera suffisamment dégagé du plafond, des murs, des coins, des poutres, des luminaires et des cadres de portes et de fenêtres. L’embrasure doit être à au moins 25 mm (1 pouce) du mur ou du plafond adjacent, d'un montant ou d’une solive, ou de plomberie.

3.Placez le gabarit à l’endroit choisi pour l’installation puis tracez autour du gabarit avec un crayon. Le traçage est la taille exacte de l’embrasure à pratiquer [Figure 6].

4.Pratiquez soigneusement l’embrasure avec l’outil approprié au matériau du mur ou du plafond. Commencez en faisant un trou à l’intérieur du traçage (la mèche touchant le traçage). Utilisez ce trou pour insérer la scie ou le couteau et commencer la coupe [Figure 7].

5.Une fois l’embrasure pratiquée, sortez-en le câble précéd- emment installé et connectez-le au haut-parleur. Suivez les instructions de connexion fournies avec votre récepteur et contenues dans ce manuel.
