PAINTING YOUR RC SERIES IN-WALL LOUDSPEAKERS

You will need:

•Paint of your choice (to make the job easier, we recommend spray painting the grille).

•A paperclip or corkscrew (for removing the paintable grille).

•Masking tape.

•Paint mask (to cover the unpaintable parts, supplied!).

PREPARING TO PAINT:

1.Separate the parts of the speaker. If the speaker is not yet installed, the grille can be removed simply by pushing the clamp screws forward to push the grille off the speaker from the inside. If the speaker is already in the wall, carefully hook the grille with a bent paper clip and pull it gently away from the frame [Figure 2].

2.When painting the frame of the speaker, use the supplied paint mask to carefully mask off the front of the speaker to protect the driver and baffle while painting. You can do this while the speaker is already installed in the wall (if, for instance, you’re repainting the room). If you do not have the paint masks, care- fully mask the speaker components using paper and masking tape [Figure 3].

PEINTURE DES HAUT-PARLEURS DE LA SERIE RC

Vous aurez besoin de:

•Peinture de votre choix. Il est recommandé de vaporiser la grille avec une peinture en aérosol.

•Un trombone ou un tire-bouchon (pour retirer la grille).

•Du ruban-cache.

•Un cache-peinture (inclus) pour protéger les pièces qu’il ne faut pas peindre.

PREPARATION A LA PEINTURE:

1.Séparez les divers éléments du haut-parleur. Si le haut-parleur n’est pas encore installé, la grille peut être retirée en appuyant sur les vis des crampons et en tirant la grille du haut-parleur.

Si le haut-parleur est déjà installé dans le mur, dégagez déli catement la grille à l’aide d’un trombone plié [Figure 2].

2.Lorsque vous peignez le cadre du haut-parleur, utilisez le cache-peinture fourni pour protéger les transducteurs et l’écran acoustique. Vous pouvez peindre un haut-parleur déjà installé dans un mur (p. ex. si vous repeignez la pièce); si vous n’avez plus les cache-peinture originaux, masquez bien les compos- ants du haut-parleur avec du papier et du ruban-cache [Figure 3].
