4) Installing the InstaMount

Figure 8.1: Lower ZipClip (1)

Figure 8.3: Remove ZipClip

5) Connecting the Wires

Insert the wires into the con-

nectors, making sure that the 

positive wire is being attached 

to the red connection and the 

negative wire is being attached 

to the black connection. If the 

negative and positive wires are 

switched, speaker performance 

will be drastically impacted. 

6) Installing the Speaker

Fit the speaker into the Insta-

Mount, and twist it clockwise 

into place. When the arrow on 

the speaker lines up with one of 

the arrows on the InstaMount, 

that means the speaker is tight-

ly in place. 

Be sure that the ar-

rows line up

, otherwise there’s 

a risk that the speaker will fall 

out of the ceiling.

Figure 9.4: Secure Speaker

Figure 9.1: Connecting the Wires

Figure 9.2: Locking the Speaker

Adjust the ZipClips so that 

they’re positioned at the top 

of the rail. This is done by in-

serting your finger under the 

locking tab and gently lifting 

it outward, away from the rail, 

while at the same time pulling 

the ZipClips to the top of the 

ZipClip rail.

Insert the InstaMount into the 

hole in the ceiling by gently 

bending the ZipClips inward. 

Reach inside the InstaMount 

and push the ZipClips down so 

that the InstaMount is firmly in 

place, but not too tight. 

If for some reason the Insta-

Mount needs to be removed, 

reach inside and lift the locking 

tabs to fully remove the Zip-

Clips. After the ZipClips have 

been removed, the InstaMount 

can be taken out.

stall the InstaMount and speak-
