INSTALLING SUBWOOFER

  • Holding the subwoofer’s front lip with your thumbs and index fingers, push the 4 mounting screws toward each other with your other fingers, so the mounting brackets can fit through the hole with an “up-and-in” motion.
    Release the screws and gently push the subwoofer into the backbox.
