1. General Advice for Using Loudspeakers
Erection of the Loudspeakers
To ensure that the loudspeakers do not topple or fall and cause damage or injury, please alway s take care to mount the loudspeakers securely.
At all times hang up the speakers on at least 2 of the 6 threads av ailable. The same goes for the lifting and setting up of the speakers.
Do not hang more than three loudspeakers on top of each other without using special Kling & Freitag installation fittings.
Please check whethe r the installation connections c omply with a pplicable safe ty guidelines and if they are of a n adequate size or strength. You w ill find information about t his in our Installa tion Fittings User Ma nua l.
For both mobile and fixed installations, please use only assembly fittings provided by Kling & Freitag. Make sure to observe the installation instructions and safety notes shown in the Installa­tion Fittings User Ma nua l.
Assembly fittings and loudspeakers should undergo regular visual checks. At any sign of wear, fittings should be replaced immedia tely . F urther more , all sc rew ed c onnect ions should be che cke d regularly.
Do not Install Loudspeakers in any of the Following Places:
-
Where the speakers are permanently subjected to direct sunlight (with the exception of the ‘All Weathe r ’ versions, w hich have been specially deve lope d f or out door usa ge ).
-
Where the loudspeakers are subjected to dampness (with the exception of the ‘All Weather’ and ‘Outdoor’ versions, provide d t he la t t e r a r e not subjected to dir e ct weather conditions).
-
Where the loudspeakers are subjected to strong vibrations and dust.

Damage Caused by Magnetic Fields of the Loudspeakers
Loudspeakers are surrounded by a permanent magnetic field even when they are not connec ted up. Therefore, please take care especially during transport and installation that a distance of 1m away from magnetic data carriers and computer/video monitors is kept.
Protection of the Loudspeakers
For the selec tion of P ower Amplifie rs, it should be made sure tha t the ir dimensions a re suffic ient. Power Amplifiers which have a too low power output can cause damages to the loudspeakers through their ove r loa d (clipping).
Power Amplifiers should never be overloaded. Especially for Power Amplifiers with a nominal power higher than that of the loudspeaker, overload may cause damages to the loudspeakers.
The following Signals may damage the Loudspeakers
-
Permanent high- pit ched signals with high fre que ncy and continuous tone through feedback .
-
Permanently distorted signals wit h high power.
-
Noises that occ ur when an appliance is disconnected or sw it ched on while the am plif ie r is on.
Advice on Protection Circuits
The CS 5 is equipped with protection c urcuits for t he 1“ tweet er as we ll as the crossov er, w hich interrupt the signal flow in the case of extreme overload. If the loudspeaker switches off, de­crease the volume and after a few seconds the loudspeaker will automatically switch itself on again.
Avoid Ear Damage
Please do not risk damaging your ears, by staying too close to operating speakers even if you feel that the volume is low enough.

2. Wiring and Pinning
Wiring:
If you use two or more speakers, please observe the correc t +/- polarity of the loudspeakers at the amplifiers in or de r t o gua r a nt e e an even-phased a nd t he r e f or e ba la nced sound.
Speaker System CS 5
We recommend you use the supplied K ling & Freit ag connec tion cables. In order to av oid loss of performanc e, wire gauges should be of at le ast 2.5mm greater diam e t e r . An accept a ble wire gauge can be calculated using the following formula:
Length of C able Necessar y (m)__
Recommended Wire Gauge (mm ²) =

Pinning:
