9. Caring for your Speaker
Outdoor speakers are designed to withstand outdoor environments, including
incidental exposure to water. They are also designed to allow use of pressure
washing or hose nozzle cleaning. Cleaning can also be done with use of a damp
sponge or cloth.
10. Troubleshooting
Should your speaker not work properly, check the following:
No sound from speaker or quiet/strange sound:
• Make certain you observed proper polarity. Check the connections at the
back of the amplifier, and then at the speaker.
• Most stereo receivers have an A/B speaker selector switch. Make certain
that this switch is in the proper position, and that the proper audio source is
selected.
• Mute feature or protection mode is activated. Check for short circuits in
speaker wiring.
Receiver cuts on and off:
• This could be caused by a short circuit between the positive and negative
leads. Check the connections at the back of the receiver, and then at the
speaker; make sure that no strands of wire from one connector are touching
the other connector.
