Preparing the Installation

Using a Safety Cable

Some regional construction codes require the use of a secondary method of securing loudspeakers to support structures to provide additional safety. Choose a mounting position, method, and hardware consistent with local building codes and regulations.

Bose recommends using (1) a safety wire or (2) a safety cable as a secondary securing mechanism. See the diagrams below for safety attachment points.

Follow the manufacturer's instructions for any secondary securing mechanism implemented.

Preparing Acoustic Ceiling Tile

Assembling the Tile Bridge

Note: If you are installing in a hard ceiling, assemble the tile bridge after inserting the rails and ring through the hole cutout (see page 6).

  1. Align the rails and insert the tabs into the slots.
  2. Pull the rails outward to secure them together.
  3. Align the rails parallel to each other and press the tile bridge ring down to secure the ring to the rails.

Note: Installation in close proximity to cooking surfaces where the loudspeaker may be directly exposed to cooking oils, such as in commercial cooking environments, may decrease the performance or functionality of the loudspeaker.

Cutting the Ceiling Tile

  1. Remove the tile and use the template to trace a loudspeaker hole onto the tile. To center the template on the tile, draw an X by connecting the corners diagonally and center the template using the crossing point.
  2. Cut a hole into the tile.
