grille, paint them and let them dry before
you connect the speaker wire or mount

1/4"(6mm) of insulation from each wire.
Then twist the ends of each wire.

terminal by pressing the release tab,
inserting the wire into the hole, and
then releasing the Tab. Repeat this
procedure to connect the unmarked-wire
to the balck terminal.

connect the unmarked wire to the left
