Separating the cover-stand

1 Locate the Cover-Stand's handle. See the diagram

on the right.

2 Push the Cover-Stand's handle while applying

force to the Cover-Stand in the direction of the arrow. Important : Push the Cover-Stand straight ahead, parallel to the surface of the M7. You may need to use some force.

3 The tabs release and the Cover-Stand separates

as shown in the figure.

NOTES

9Do not lift up the M7 by the stand. It may separate from the stand and cause damage or personal injury. 9When installing the M7 vertically, please make sure to use the stand.

If you do not, vibrations from the M7's speakers may cause the M7 to tip over or fall, damaging it.

➡

Installing on a wall

Warning

9Please have a qualified installer install the Wall Mount Bracket. 9Check the strength of the wall before you install the Wall Mount Bracket. If the strength is insufficient,

make sure to reinforce the wall before installing the Wall Mount Bracket and the M7 on the wall.

9Samsung Electronics is not liable for any damage to the product due to the product being installed

inappropriately.

9After the installation is complete, do not hang on the M7 and avoid striking it or subjecting it to severe

impact. When reinstalling the Wall Mount Bracket and M7 in another location, use the same screws as those supplied with the Wall Mount Bracket. (You can buy the screws from your product provider.)

1 Finish pairing the M7, and then make sure the App plays music properly through the

M7.

2 Close the back cover of the M7.

3 Install the Wall Mount Bracket (sold separately). You can mount it vertically or

horizontally. Follow the directions that come with the Bracket.

4 Fit the M7 into the corresponding slots of the Wall Mount Bracket.

The installation is complete.

NOTE

9For more information, please refer to the Wall Mount's Quick Setup Guide.

Connecting the M7(s) to Your Network with a HUB (Not Included)

1 Connect a LAN cable to the router and the ETHERNET SWITCH on the back of the

HUB.

NOTE

9You can connect the LAN cable to any ETHERNET SWITCH Port on the HUB.

2 Attach the HUB's power cord to the power port on the rear of the HUB, and then plug

the power cord into an electrical outlet.

The power ( ) and the HUB ( ) indicators on the HUB's front turn on. When the pairing indicator (
