Wall-mounting

Mounting sound bar on a wall In order to prevent injuries, the sound bar device must be securely fastened to the wall in accordance with the below installation instructions.

Drive the screws into the wall:

• Use the measurements indicated below to identify the screwing positions on the wall.
  

•  Leave at least 100 mm of space above the main unit to allow enough space for fitting the main Unit.

• Be sure to use a level to ensure that both mounting holes are level with each other.
  Note: If you are installing screws into drywall or concrete, use the wall anchors (provided) designed for that type of surface, these are not required when fixing to wood.
  Safety requirement for wall mount fixing:

• Wall-mounted equipment must be positioned to ensure that metal parts of the equipment such as mounting screws are not grounded through metallic members in the wall such as metal laths, wire laths and metal plates, in order to prevent smoke emission, ignition and fire hazards.

• When mounting you must ensure that any metal parts of the equipment (such as the mounting screws) do not contact any metallic parts in the wall as stated above.

Caution: Keep the mounting screws and plastic screw dowels out of reach of children to prevent swallowing
