3.1
Mounting�the�Speakers�/�Wall�and�Ceiling�Installation
Warning
The speakers may only be mounted to wall and ceilings by qualified personnel.
The technicians responsible for assembling the speakers on site are responsible for the safe setup and
use of the speakers and guarantee this.
Never use signal cables or power cords for suspending, aligning or securing the systems.
Before carrying through ceiling and wall installations, it is essential to consider the load capacity of
walls, ceilings and panelling as well as the stability and type of the construction. If there is wall pan-
elling, for example, it is then necessary to examine the solidity of the wall and use the appropriate wall
plugs.
Make sure to comply with the stipulated tightening torques.
If not otherwise stated in this manual, only original KLING & FREITAG parts may be used for mounting
the speakers. The use of other parts - in particular parts by other manufacturers - is not permitted in
this case.
Ensure that all installation connections comply with the applicable safety guidelines and that the size
and strength are sufficient.
Ensure that all connections are secured against coming loose and that only authorized, statically tested
and correctly sized supports, mounting equipment, wire ropes and chains are used.
As a basic principle, you must visually inspect all components of the speaker before every use. If there
are signs of wear, cracks, or deformation, then you must replace the parts immediately. The visual in-
spection also includes checking the screwed connections on supporting elements.
The information described here does not relieve the user of the duty to follow the given safety require-
ments and legal regulations.

Notes�for�Mounting�the�Speakers
Caution
Mount the speakers securely. To avoid injury or damage, always be sure to mount the speakers secure-
ly so that they do not fall.
Please note that speakers can move as a result of vibrations. To prevent them from falling from their
mounted position, they must be secured properly.
When laying out the connecting cables, make sure that nobody can trip.

Preventing�hearing�damage
Caution
Avoid beeing too close to operating speakers. This equipment is capable of delivering sound pressure
levels in excess of 90 dB/SPL, which may cause permanent hearing damage.
