3.Make sure there is no obstruction around the edge of the cutout to keep the spring clips from flipping forward.
4.Center the back of the speaker in the cutout and push it straight in until the spring clips flip forward. Push only on the frame, not on the drivers.
Note: If the cutout is too large, one or both spring clips might not flip forward. Make sure both clips grab the wallboard before you release the speaker.
5.Level the speaker. Turn the clamp screws clockwise until the clamps are drawn up snugly, securing the speaker.

Connecting the Amplified Keypad or Amplifier
1.Make sure the keypad or amplifier is turned off.
2.Strip 1 to 2 inches (2.5 to 5 cm) off the end of each cable’s outer jacket. Then strip just enough insulation off each wire to allow inserting the wires fully into the keypad’s or amplifier’s speaker terminals.
3.Twist the wire strands together so there are no strands separated from the bundle.
4.Connect the wires to the speaker terminals, being sure to observe proper polarity.
5.Check to make sure there are no stray strands of wire outside the terminals. If there are, remove the wire, twist the strands together, and reconnect the wire to the terminal.
Taking Care of Your Speakers
Your speakers are made of durable materials that need very little care. All we recommend is an occasional dusting with a soft cloth or light vacuuming with a dust brush attachment. If you vacuum the speakers, leave the grilles in place to avoid damaging the drivers. Do not use any harsh detergents, chemical solvents, or abrasive materials on your speakers.
