Remove the grille from the speaker frame by pulling on the paper tab. If the tab is missing, to avoid scratching the grille or baffle you may unfold a paper clip, insert the straight end through one of the holes in the grille, and gently pull up.

Determine the correct speaker location.

Note: Remove the inner tem- plate, which is the paint shield, at the perforation. Use the outer template when cutting the dry- wall. Although the SSLCR may be oriented either horizontally or vertically, the installation procedure is the same.

Note: Always allow at least one-half inch between a wall stud and the speaker cutout, or the locking tabs will not be able to swivel into place.

Cut the drywall.

Screw down each of the four (six for SSLCR) Phillips-head screws. The locking tabs will swivel into place and secure the unit to the rear surface of the drywall.

Connect the speaker wires to the speaker.

JBL Performance Specialist speakers feature unique swivel mounts for the tweeters that enable you to aim the very directional high frequencies toward the listening position, at ear-level height. Before installing the speaker grille, gently press on the outer edge of the tweeter mount to adjust the position of the tweeter. The tweeter will not swivel more than 15 degrees in any direc- tion; do not attempt to force it to move further. You may also rotate the tweeter to orient the JBL logo as desired.

Place the frame assembly in the wall.

Replace the metal grille. For the SSLCR only, attach the JBL logo to the grille to correspond to vertical or horizontal installation.
