WHAT IT DOES The Klipsch G-17 Air is designed to play your music:

a. Wirelessly from any device equipped with Apple

b. Connected via the rear-mounted USB input, most 30 pin iPods

c. Connected via the rear-mounted 3.5mm input and to the headphone

output of any MP3 player or phone.

If you have iTunes 10.1 or later on your Mac computer or PC, you can wirelessly

stream any of the music in your library or stream music from the Internet radio

stations accessible to the G-17 Air. You can also wirelessly stream music from

your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch to the G-17 Air (iOS 4.2 or later required in these

devices). The 3.5mm auxiliary input also allows you to play any audio device with a

3.5mm output through the G-17 Air (3.5mm cable not included).

AirPlay requires iTunes 10.1 or later to operate from a MAC or PC. Airplay can

also operate from an iOS device capable of running iOS 4.2 or later (iPhone 3G,

3GS or 4, iPod touch 2nd, 3rd or 4th gen, iPad or iPad 2). However it is recom-

mended that you update your iOS and iTunes to get the most out of your system.

1. G-17 Air Main Unit

2. Glass base for G-17 Air with attached feet and post

3. Rubber input cover for post

4. Four Phillips head screws (to attach post to the G-17 Air)

6. Remote control (with battery)

8. AC power cord (plug into power supply)

10. Quick AirPlay Setup Guide

ATTACHING THE BASE TO THE G-17 AIR For desktop placement you must first attach the supplied base:

1. Gently remove the rubber input cover (A) on rear of the post attached to the

tempered glass base exposing four screw holes on post (B).

2. Align screw holes on rear of the G-17 main unit with those on the post.

3. Using the four screws, attach G-17 Air to the post. Do not over tighten.

4. Replace rubber input cover.

MOUNTING THE G-17 AIR ON WALL

1. Determine a suitable location for the G-17 to wall-mount and complete any

wiring to it before mounting to the wall. DO NOT CEILING-MOUNT.

2. With a pencil, mark on wall two pilot hole locations 12 inches (30.48cm)

3. Pre-drill pilot holes in marked locations. If drilling into a wall stud (ideal)

it is recommended to use #10 mounting screws (not included) to mount

the G-17 Air. If there is no stud, install wall anchors (not included) into

the pilot holes to hold G-17 Air instead. Wall anchors should be rated to

at least 8 lbs. (3.63 kg)

GRILLE INSTALLATION The unique grille for the speaker consists of a piece of sheer rectangular

cloth with metal rods along the top and bottom. It is held in place by magnets

imbedded in slots at the top and bottom of the rear of the cabinet. Carefully pull

the metal rod away from one side, then the other to remove grille. The grille is

designed to be as lightweight and acoustically transparent as possible so there is

no rigid framework behind it. Because of this, it might be necessary to “smooth”

the cloth once the grille is attached to the cabinet by using two thumbs to pull the

cloth taut from top to bottom.

CARE AND CLEANING Your Klipsch G-17 Air speaker system has a durable finish that should only

require dry dusting or cleaning with a dry cloth. Avoid the use of abrasive or

solvent-based cleaners and harsh detergents.
