Wall mounting the speakers

The front, center and surrond speakers has a mounting hole which can be used to mount the speaker on the wall

Mounting screw

(not supplied)

5 mm (3/16 in.)

10 mm (3/8 in.)

5 mm to 7 mm (3/16 in. to 1/4 in.)

Before mounting (see above), keep in mind the following points:

• Remember that the speaker system is heavy and that its weight could cause the screws to work loose, or the wall material to fail to support it, resulting in the speaker falling. Make sure that the wall you intend to mount the speakers on is strong enough to support them. Do not mount on plywood or soft surface walls.

• Mounting screws are not supplied. Use screws that are suitable for the wall material and can support the weight of the speaker.

Caution

• If you are unsure of the qualities and strength of the walls, consult a professional for advice.

• Pioneer is not responsible for any accidents or damage that result from improper installation.

• Do not hang the subwoofer on the wall or from the ceiling as they might fall and cause injury.

• When placing this unit, ensure that it is firmly secured and avoid areas where it may be likely to fall and cause injuly in the event of a natural disaster (such as an earthquake).

For more information about speaker installation, please see the instructions that come with the speakers.
