( F i g u re 1)
• Fold the top carton flaps right back and
i n v e rt the carton and contents.
• Lift the carton clear of the contents.
• Remove the inner packing
f rom the pro d u c t .
Check the contents for:
• 2 x Baffle with drive units and on-board
a m p l i f i e r s
• 2 x Speaker grille scrims
• 8 x Machine screws (for fixing baffles to
wall frame)
We suggest you retain the packaging for future
use. Remove the grilles from the frames and, to
avoid damage, keep them in their plastic bags
(and preferably in the carton) away from the
work area until you are ready to fit them.
DAMPING THE CAV I T Y
A foam pad is supplied to damp the area behind
the drive units. In addition, loosely fill the whole
section of the wall cavity with wadding.
F i b reglass and mineral wool matting supplied for
heat insulation are suitable, but not closed cell
foam or expanded polystyrene. Check that there
is no debris that may fall into the speaker.
I M P O RTA N T: YOU SHOULD CHECK THAT THE
I N S TA L L ATION ITSELF AND THE MATERIALS YOU
USE MEET THE LOCAL FIRE AND BUILDING
R E G U L AT I O N S .
FITTING THE SPEAKER
( F i g u re 2 & 3)
Note: The assembly should be installed with the
tweeter at the bottom.
O ffer up the baffle assembly to the frame and
attach the cables as described in the CASA
installation manual. To avoid rattles, tie down
loose cable near the speaker with clips, mastic
or tape.
Feed the baffle assembly into the frame and
using the screws provided (4 – one in each
c o rner) secure it to the wall frame. Before fitting
the grille, check the operation of all the
loudspeakers in the installation. Remove the
p rotective covers from the tweeters domes. When
you are satisfied that the installation is perf o rm i n g
c o rre c t l y, lay a scrim into each grille and push all
the grilles into the wall frames.
CUSTOMI SIN G
The frame and grille have paintable white semimatte finish, ready if necessary to be re - f i n i s h e d
to match you own decor. Decorate before the
b a ffle is fitted.
If the grille is to be re-finished remove the infaRed “eye” by removing the rubber retaining ring refit before fitting the grille.
Do not paint the baffle or drive unit area it
should be removed if the frame/grille is to be re decorated at a later date.
