INSTALLING YOUR NEW GRILLE ACCESSORY
IMPORTANT: Before beginning, please gather the tools necessary to make the installation of the grille accessory a little easier. Tools needed will be a small flat-head screwdriver or a picking device such as an ice pick. To begin the installation, please ensure that the subwoofer is placed on a stable surface.
Step 1 (Figures A1 and A2)
Locate the rubber trim piece (1) that is embedded into the grille channel on
the woofer trim ring. Completely remove the rubber trim ring using the small
screwdriver or ice pick. (Do not remove any screws holding the woofer.) The
trim piece will come out of the grille channel easily. If you choose, you can
keep this trim piece if you would like to remove the grille later.
Step 2 (Figures B1 and B2)
Locate the grille accessory (2), it comes with several rubber gaskets
installed on the edge to ensure a secure fit into the grille channel. Insert
and push the edge of the grille into the grille channel. You may need to tap
the grille around the perimeter with your fist or a rubber mallet until it is
fully seated into the channel. (Do not push or use force on the center of the
grille as this may dent the grille, only use force around the edge of the
grille.)
Step 3 (Figure C1)
You’re done! You can now use your subwoofer normally.
