Installation Prep…
Before you begin the installation of your new TIC outdoor product, please
carefully select the locations of your new TIC outdoor products.
1.
Select a reasonably level surface for the installation of your new TIC
outdoor speakers. For surface speakers this will prevent movement or
excessive vibration during use. This will also ensure more uniform sound
dispersion.
2.
For Wireless Speaker Broadcasts: in normal circumstances we suggest
placing the transmitter at a height of 1 meter above the receiving units
(rock speakers) because land will absorb radio waves produced by the
transmitter. Within the maximum area of coverage, the zero boundary is
100m, unob
structed, or approx. 300ft.
3.
Do not place your TIC outdoor speakers in a depression or area where
water pools or in the direct path of garden sprinklers.
4.
Whenever possible avoid long term exposure of your new TIC outdoor
speakers to excessive high temperatures, chlorinated solvents, acids
such as those often contained in fertilizers and other solvents which
potentially, could wear your speaker components prematurely.
5.
There is no requirement for customers to open this unit far any kind of
o
peration or maintenance. Doing so may void the warranty!
6.
Please ensure the base plate, silicone covered, power switch is in the
“off” position when not in use. The unit consumes power, including
battery power, even in the “stand by” mode.
7. Avoid
any shocks, high vibration, collisions or sudden impacts to the
speaker unit or its electronic components.
