When Installing the Unit

0 Refer all installation work to the dealer from whom the speaker was purchased. Installation for flying requires
extensive technical knowledge and experience. The speaker may fall off if incorrectly installed, resulting in
possible personal injury.

- Flying Precautions

Be sure to follow the instructions below. Otherwise, the suspension wires or belts may be off or snap and

the speaker may fall off, causing personal injury.

- Check to confirm that the suspension wires and belts are strong enough to withstand the speaker load.

- The connectors of the suspension wires and belts must be securely linked with those of the speaker.

- All parts and components (such as enclosures, metal pieces, and screws) must be free from any
deformation, crack, and corrosion.

~ Be sure to use screws supplied with the optional flying hardware when installing the speaker using such
hardware.

0 Install the unit only in a location that can structurally support the weight of the unit and the mounting bracket.
Doing otherwise may result in the unit falling down and causing personal injury and/or property damage.

- (HX-5B-WP and HX-5W-WP only)
When installing the unit in the snowy area, take appropriate measures to prevent snow from lying on the
unit. If the snow lies on the unit, the unit may fall, causing personal injuries.

' (HX-5B and HX-5W only)
Since the unit is designed for indoor 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 unit's size and weight, be sure that at least two persons are available to install the unit. 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.

0 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.

0 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.
