Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if mishandled, could

WARNING
When Installing the Unit
• Install the unit only in a location that can structurally support the full weight of the unit and speaker. Doing
otherwise may result in the unit falling down and causing personal injury and/or property damage.
• Since the unit is designed for in-door use, do not install it outdoors. If installed outdoors, the aging of parts
causes the unit to fall off, resulting in personal injury.
• Owing to the speaker's size and weight, be sure that at least two persons are available to install the speaker.
Failure to do so could result in personal injury.
• Do not use other methods than specified to mount the bracket. Extreme force is applied to the unit and the
unit could fall off, possibly resulting in personal injuries.
• Use nuts and bolts that are appropriate for the ceiling's or wall's structure and composition. Failure to do so
may cause the speaker to fall, resulting in material damage and possible personal injury.
• Tighten each nut and bolt securely. Ensure that the bracket has no loose joints after installation to prevent
accidents that could result in personal injury.
• Use the specified speaker in combination. Doing otherwise may cause the speaker to fall off, resulting in
personal injury.
• Do not mount the unit in locations exposed to constant vibration. The mounting bracket can be damaged by
excessive vibration, potentially causing the unit to fall, which could result in personal injury.
• Do not install the unit in indoor swimming pools or such locations where corrosion may occur easily. The
parts deteriorate if corroded, causing the unit to fall, which could result in personal injury.
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if mishandled, could
result in moderate or minor personal injury, and/or property damage.
CAUTION
When Installing the Unit
• Avoid touching the unit's sharp metal edge to prevent injury.
When the Unit is in Use
• Do not stand or sit on, nor hang down from the unit as this may cause it to fall down or drop, resulting in
personal injury and/or property damage.
• Have the unit checked periodically by the shop from where it was purchased. Failure to do so may result in
corrosion or damage to the speaker or the unit that could cause it to fall, possibly causing personal injury.
