INSTALLATION CONTINUED
Be sure to route the wires to the speakers with the insulated
terminals ending at the speakers. This will insure a good contact
with the speaker. If you need to shorten the speaker lead, do so at
the opposite end of the insulated terminals or the bare end.
Be sure the polarity is correct at all times. The speaker leads are
color coded for negative and positive. Be sure that the leads are
connected to the correct terminal of the speaker.
To insure long-term reliability, all bare wires and wire-to-wire
connections should be soldered and insulated with heat shrink or
electrician's tape. Under no circumstances should you leave any
bare wires uncovered, as this can and will lead to the damage of
your speakers.
When mounting in a door, it is imperative to have the right amount
of slack in the connecting wire so it does not get crimped or torn
when the door is opened and closed. Avoid areas of the door jam
that pinch, this will cause damage to the speaker over long-term use.
Once the speaker wiring is completed you can connect the opposite
end to the source unit or amplifier. Again, be sure to observe the
correct polarity. Solder and wrap all stripped connections.
Once you have tested your system and have confirmed that it is
operating properly, turn off your system and prepare for the final
mounting of the speakers.
Position the speaker into the mounting hole and reconfirm the
correct mounting location and hole placement. Screw clips are
provided to insure a snug fit. Place screw clips over the metal
surface and line up the hole with the hole you have previously
drilled. Place the speaker into the hole, align the mounting holes
and proceed to insert the screws. Be sure to tighten the screws
evenly as to not warp the speaker frame.
Turn your system back on and confirm the speaker's operation, first
at low volume and then you may increase the volume as you desire.
Carefully inspect the speakers surrounding and make sure the
area does not obstruct the mounting of the grill.
