Q Acoustics E120 is an installed DAB, FM, Bluetooth and AUX input Hi-Fi system easily installed into 
your room. It is particularly suited to kitchens, bathrooms* and bedrooms but could equally be used in 
any other room in the house. 

The following instructions assume that you are competent in general electrical installation skills. You 
will need to mount a touch panel into a double gang back box and route cables from this box to the 

speakers and mains. If you are not confident in doing this you should seek professional assistance from 
a qualified electrician. 

It is possible to connect TV sound or another device into the rear auxiliary line input using an additional 
cable. 

*The main E120 wall unit is IP54 rated. It should be located outside zone 2 of the electrical safety zones, 

if in doubt you are advised to seek assistance from a qualified electrician.
