CAUTION

wARNING

•  Refer all installation work to the dealer from whom 

the  speaker  was  purchased.  Installation  for  flying 

requires  extensive  technical  knowledge  and 

experience. The speaker may fall off if incorrectly 

installed, resulting in possible personal injury.

•  Flying Precautions 

  Be sure to follow the instructions below. Otherwise, 

the suspension wires or belts may be off or snap 

and  the  speaker  may  fall  off,  causing  personal 

injury.

·  Check to confirm that the suspension wires and 

belts are strong enough to withstand the speaker 

load.

·  The connectors of the suspension wires and belts 

must be securely linked with those of the speaker.

·  All  parts  and  components  (such  as  enclosures, 

metal pieces, and screws) must be free from any 

deformation, crack, and corrosion. 

·  Be sure to use screws supplied with the optional 

flying hardware when installing the speaker using 

such hardware.

•  Install  the  speaker  only  in  a  location  that  can 

structurally support the weight of the speaker and 

the mounting bracket. Doing otherwise may result 

in the speaker falling down and causing personal 

injury and/or property damage.

•  Since the speaker is designed for in-door use, do 

not install it outdoors. If installed outdoors, the aging 

of parts causes the speaker to fall off, resulting in 

personal injury. 

•  Owing  to  the  speaker's  size  and  weight,  be  sure 

that at least two persons are available to install the 

speaker. Failure to do so could result in personal 

injury.

•  Do not use other methods than specified to install 

the speaker. Extreme force is applied to the speaker 

and it could fall off, possibly resulting in personal 

injuries.

•  Use  nuts  and  bolts  that  are  appropriate  for  the 

ceiling's structure and composition. Failure to do so 

may cause the speaker to fall, resulting in material 

damage and possible personal injury. 

•  Tighten  each  nut  and  bolt  securely.  Ensure  that 

the  bracket  has  no  loose  joints  after  installation 

to  prevent  accidents  that  could  result  in  personal 

injury.

•  Do  not  mount  the  speaker  in  locations  exposed 

to constant vibration. The mounting bracket can 

be  damaged  by  excessive  vibration,  potentially 

causing  the  speaker  to  fall,  which  could  result  in 

personal injury.

•  Avoid  installing  the  speaker  in  indoor  swimming 

facilities  that  are  not  well  ventilated.  In  such 

locations, the mounting hardware may be vulnerable 

to corrosion, eventually allowing the speaker to fall 

resulting in personal injury.
