    NOTICE

    Although you may use a power screwdriver to initially turn the screws on the mounting tabs, you must use a torque screwdriver to complete the installation. Using power tools to fully tighten the screws could result in permanent damage to the speaker and void the product warranty.

  9. After the speaker has been mounted, place the grille onto the speaker.
