INSTALLATION

Before installation

The following is the recommended procedure for
installing the speaker in a ceiling. Please read it
carefully before installation.
• Before you begin installation, read this owner's
manual completely and consult your local building
codes. If you have any doubt, contact your dealer or a
qualified audio/video installer.
• Before installing the speaker, run the speaker cables
to the installation location.
CAUTION
• When installing the speaker, do not touch the woofer
or tweeter units with your hands or expose them to
excessive physical shock. If they are dented or bent,
the sound will be distorted.
• Be aware of any concealed studs, electrical wiring or
plumbing in the ceiling into which you are installing
the speaker. If you are not sure of a safe way to install
this speaker, consult a professional installer or a
building contractor.
• When installing your NS-ICS600 in-ceiling speaker,
be aware of the product weight (See specification
page) and the sturdiness of the material into which
you are installing the speaker.
• Placing the speaker too close to a CRT-type TV may
impair the picture color or cause a buzzing noise. In
this case, move the speaker away from the TV. This is
not an issue with LCD and plasma TVs.
NOTE
• If you wish to paint the speaker grille, refer to page 6
"PAINTING THE SPEAKER GRILLE" before proceeding.
