Warning Notices
- Before cutting the mounting hole ensure that there is no conflict with other in-ceiing or inwall installed items such as pipe work, electrical cabling, gas pipes and supporting joists etc.
- It is important to ensure that the installation complies with relevant; building reguiations.
- Take care not to apply pressure to the speaker cone and tweeter dome during installation.
- Ensure that the speaker model is suitable for use in the intended application. Only CW(IPX4) models should be used where there are high levels of moisture.
INSTALLING THE SPEAKERS
Step 1
Select a suitable mounting location for the speaker taking note of the Warning
Notices above. Using the installation template supplied mark the speaker
position and cut the mounting hole: Step 2
Make sure all equipment is switched off. The speaker cable should be stripped
back ~10mm so that there are bare wire ends. Remove the packaging and
protective dust cover from speaker and attach the speaker leads using the
pushdown spring clip terminals at the rear of the speaker. The positive
conductor should be connected to the red terminal
and the negative conductor to the black terminal. For “St” versions there are
two sets of terminals for connection of left and right channels.
Note: Tweeter output level adjustment (P’ & ‘CW’ versions)
On some Q Install models the tweeter output level can be increased or
decreased using the 3 position switch located at the rear of the product.
It is recommended to leave the switch in the ‘O’ position for the initial
sound check.
The location of the 3 position switch may differ between models.
Step 3
Check that each of the 4 swing out clamps are rotated inwards. Push the
speaker through the mounting hole and position flush with the ceiling. Whilst
holding the speaker in place tighten each of the mounting screws using a No. 2
Pozidriv® sorew driver in the order shown in the diagram (left).
When an increase in resistance is felt the clamp is in position. 
Step 4
Once the speakers are installed they should be tested before the grilles are
fitted. All mono speakers (excluding CW) maodels feature a swivel tweeter that
may be adjusted allowing the high frequencies to be directed towards or away
from the narmal listening position as required. The tweeter’s outer frame (not
dome) should be pushed gently to achieve the desired tweeter position. 
Step 5
For speakers featuring a magnetic grille, locate the grille over the speaker
bezel where it will be pulled into place. Note that square grilles may be
positioned at any angle required. For CW models push fit the grile into place
by applying gentle pressure around the edges until the grille edge is flush
with the outer bezel.
Grille backing cloth
Some models feature a white backing cloth behind the grille to help
minimize visual contrast with the ceiling For the very best: sound performance
it is recommended that this cloth is removed before use. To remove simply peel
away the backing cloth from the grille.
Note: It is advisable to remove the backing cloth on CW models when used
in a damp envronment.
