GB

Getting Started

You can install your surround and surround

back speakers on the wall.

1 Prepare screws (not supplied)

that are suitable for the hook on

the back of each speaker as

shown in the illustrations

below.

2 Fasten the screws to the wall.

The screws should protrude 5

to 7 mm.

3 Hang the speakers on the

screws.

Notes

• Use screws that are suitable for the wall material

and strength. As a plaster board wall is especially

fragile, attach the screws securely to a beam and

fasten them to the wall. Install the speakers on a

vertical and flat wall where reinforcement is

applied.

• Contact a screw shop or installer regarding the wall

material or screws to be used.

• Sony is not responsible for accident or damage

caused by improper installation, insufficient wall

strength or improper screw installation, natural

calamity, etc.
