For connections, keep the speaker cables as short as possible. Do not bundle or roll up the excess part of the cables. If the
connections are faulty, no sound will be heard from the speakers.

Remove approximately 10 mm of insulation
from the end of each speaker cable and twist
the exposed wires of the cable together to
eliminate the risk of a short-circuit.
2
Press and hold the tab of the terminal, as
shown in the figure of step 3.

Insert the bare wire.
4
Release your finger from the tab to allow it to
lock securely on the wire end of the cable.

Test the firmness of the connection by
pulling lightly on the cable at the terminal.
Do not let the bare speaker wires touch each other as this could
damage the speaker and/or the amplifier.
