SPEAKER PLACEMENT

In all cases, it is important to place the speaker with safety in mind. Always place the RM10 on a sturdy shelf or credenza, making sure that no part of the speaker extends past the edge of the surface. The speaker should be placed out of reach of young children and pets who might topple it, resulting in serious personal

injury. All wires should be placed where they will not present a tripping hazard.

If that is not possible, cover the wires completely and securely with duct tape. Place the speaker so that the tweeters (located in the upper portion of the two side pan- els) are approximately at ear height and aimed at the lis-

tening position. When two speakers are used, place them equidistantly from the main listening position. The RM10 monitor is video- shielded and can safely be placed near a television.

The supplied self-adhesive rubber pads may be attached to the bottom corners of the speaker to protect your furniture.

WALL AND CEILING

MOUNTING

The RM10 monitor may be mounted on a ceiling or wall using appropriate after-market brackets.

It is solely the customer’s responsibility to select proper hardware and to safely install the loudspeaker. If you are uncertain of your ability to safely mount the loudspeaker on a ceiling or wall, contact a professional custom installer for assistance.

The brackets should be capa- ble of supporting a minimum

weight of 30 lb (14kg). Note that the two threaded inserts on the top of each RM10 speaker are 4" (101mm) apart. Two mounting bolts are sup- plied. If they are lost or mis- placed, contact JBL Customer Service for replacements; do not use third-party bolts. When mounting the RM10 speaker from the ceiling, the bracket should be installed in a wood joist. Drywall alone is not strong enough to support the speaker, and may result in the speaker falling and seri- ously injuring someone. Like-

wise, when mounting the RM10 speaker on a wall, the bracket should be installed in a wood stud to prevent falling. If the RM10 speaker is being mounted on a brick or con- crete wall, it is recommended that expansion anchor bolts be used.

The RM10 loudspeaker is not weather-resistant and should not be installed outdoors or in a moist area such as near a pool or hot tub.
