All models in the Up range are supplied with support rails designed to fit 

600mm standard ceiling tiles.  The following images clearly show the installation 

procedure step-by-step.

A tile cutout template and a paint shield for each Up model is included.  Be sure 

to cut your holes in the correct tiles before fixing the ceiling speakers!

Fitting Up ceiling loudspeakers

Lay the support rails across the 

ceiling tile mounting system

Ensure the locking tabs are in the open 

position before mounting the loudspeaker

Insert the speaker into the ceiling tile

Carefully tighten the locking tabs using a 

suitable Philips screwdriver until they are 

tight.  Do not overtighten

IMPORTANT! Ensure the correct 

transformer tap is selected

Check the speaker is secure. Once you have 

tested the system and satisfied yourself it is 

working correctly and the loudspeaker tapping 

is correct, fit the supplied loudspeaker grille.

Place the C Ring in between the 

support rails as as shown

Align the C Ring with the hole cut 

in the tile and secure
