SECURING THE FRONT SPEAKERS
• Pass a commercially-available reinforced string
through the plastic catch to securely support the
speaker to the wall. Be sure that the wall to which you
fasten the speaker is strong enough to support the
weight of the speaker. After fastening the speaker,
make sure that it does not fall over.
• The speaker can incur damage in the event of a fall.
• Do not attach the plastic catch directly to the wall. It
should only be used in conjunction with reinforced
string to prevent the speaker from falling.
Pass and tie two reinforced strings through the plastic
catches, and fasten the speaker to the wall as shown
above.
• If you are unsure of the quality and strength of the
walls, consult a professional for advice.
• Pioneer is not responsible for any accidents or
damage that result from improper installation.
