There are 3 mounting options:
Flush-fitted mounting - (fig E)
Allow for custom cutting; insert the tweeter as delivered.
Angled surround mounting - (fig F)
Choose the angle (25 or 45°), fix the surround using the screws
supplied, thread the wires then insert the tweeter with its grille
into the surround.
Free integrated mounting - (fig G)
Detach the grille by pushing the “Focal” ring towards the back of
the tweeter. Insert the mounting spacer around the tweeter. Fit the
whole unit behind the mounting location grille.
Fitting the crossovers - (fig H)
The crossovers must be fitted (using supplied screws or double-
sided screws) in a dry, preferably well-ventilated, place. To open
the enclosure, press following the arrows on the diagram opposite.
If the filters are not easily accessible, proceed with the wiring and
adjustments before fitting permanently.
• Tweeter level adjustment - (fig I)
The switch placed inside the crossover allows you to adjust the
tweeter level according to your taste and the location of speaker
drivers in your cabin, in order to achieve the best possible sound
reproduction.
Too much treble produces an aggressive sound, and too little alters
the definition and dynamics.
If the tweeter is installed very close to the bass-midrange speaker
driver, adjust it to 0.
If the tweeter is installed on the dashboard or above the door, and
the woofer is located in the door, adjust it to -3 or 0dB.
• Coaxial kit PC 165 FE - (fig J)
This coaxial kit is equipped with an integrated tweeter crossover
(6dB/oct); please follow the general installation recommendations.
NB: the tweeter stand cannot be angled or rotated; it has been
designed to be as compact as possible, and therefore compatible
with as many different spaces as possible.
