INSTALLATION

DANGER: Overhead mounting requires extensive experience, including the calculation of the load limit values of the installation material and regular safety inspection of all installation materials and devices. If you do not have these qualifications, do not attempt to perform an installation yourself. Refer instead to a qualified professional. There is a risk that devices that are incorrectly mounted and secured may come loose and fall down. This can cause serious injury or death.
Before installation, make sure that the amplifier system to which the speaker is to be connected is switched off and that the connection cables are de- energised!

1. Cut a hole with a suitable diameter in the ceiling (CE C6: 170 mm, CE C8: 210 mm).
2. Connect the signal supply to the desired transformer tap (see tables). Fold the speaker’s holding arms upwards, press the speaker into the ceiling cut-out and fold the holding arms down again.

CARE, MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR

In order to ensure the long-term, proper functioning of the device, it must be regularly cleaned and, if necessary, serviced. The servicing requirement depends on the intensity of use and the environment in which it is used.
We recommend a visual inspection before each operation. Furthermore, we recommend carrying out all the applicable service measures specified below once every 500 operating hours or, in the case of a lower intensity of use, at the latest after one year. Warranty claims may be limited should defects result from inadequate service and maintenance.

CARE (CARRIED OUT BY USER)
WARNING! Before carrying out any care and maintenance work, the power supply and, if possible, all device connections must be disconnected.
NOTE! Improper care can lead to impairment or even destruction of the device.

1. Housing surfaces must be cleaned with a clean, damp cloth. Make sure that no moisture can penetrate the device.
2. Air inlets and outlets must be regularly cleaned of dust and dirt. If compressed air is used, make sure that damage to the device is prevented (e.g. fans must be blocked in this case).
3. Cables and connectors must be cleaned regularly and dust and dirt must be removed.
4. In general, no cleaning or disinfection agents or abrasive agents may be used, as they may damage the surface finish. Solvents in particular, such as alcohol, can impair the function of housing seals.
5. Devices must generally be stored in a dry environment and protected from dust and dirt.

MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR (BY QUALIFIED PERSONNEL ONLY)

• DANGER! There are live components in the device. Even after disconnecting the mains connection, there may still be residual voltage in the device, e.g. due to charged capacitors.
• PLEASE NOTE! There are no user-serviceable assemblies in the device.
• NOTE! Maintenance and repair work may only be carried out by specialist personnel authorised by the manufacturer. If in doubt, consult the manufacturer.
• PLEASE NOTE! Improperly performed maintenance work may affect warranty claims.
