3.NOTE: Always allow at least a 1/2 inch between a ceiling stud/joist and the speaker cutout, or the locking tabs will not be able to swivel into place.

4.Ensure that the drywall or plywood board or other appropriate wallboard is at least a 1/2-inch thick, and confirm that the board material is capable of withstanding the weight of the speaker you will be installing. Cut the drywall.

5.Connect the speaker wires to the speaker. It is recommended that the nylon cable-strain relief tab, located next to the speaker terminals, be used

to help prevent the speaker wires from being accidentally dislodged (see Figure 5, below).

Figure 5.

6.Make sure all four locking tabs are properly positioned against the locking tab stops that are located on the speaker frame (see Figure 6, below). After confirming this, carefully place the frame assembly in the ceiling and con- firm that there is no more than 1/8-inch play between the frame and the ceiling cutout. After posi- tioning the speaker in the mounting location, back each screw out one full turn (turn counterclockwise).

7.Screw down each of the four Phillips-head screws, alternating between the four screws. The locking tabs will swivel into place and secure the unit to the rear surface of the ceiling. Hand- tighten with a nonpowered, straight-handle regular screw- driver only. Do not use a socket wrench, a powered screwdriver, a drill or any other powered tool. Confirm that the speaker is firmly and securely held in place and that all four locking tabs are firmly resting against the ceiling.
