EXISTING CONSTRUCTION
Remove the grille from the
speaker frame by pulling on the
paper tab. If the tab is missing,
to avoid scratching the grille or
baffle you may unfold a paper
clip, insert the straight end
through one of the holes in the
grille, and gently pull up.
Determine the correct speaker
location.
Note: Remove the inner tem-
plate, which is the paint shield,
at the perforation. Use the outer
template when cutting the dry-
wall. Although the SSLCR may
be oriented either horizontally
or vertically, the installation
procedure is the same.

JBL Performance Specialist
speakers feature unique swivel
mounts for the tweeters that
enable you to aim the very
directional high frequencies
toward the listening position,
at ear-level height. Before
installing the speaker grille,
gently press on the outer edge
of the tweeter mount to adjust
the position of the tweeter
. The
tweeter will not swivel more
than 15 degrees in any direc
-
tion; do not attempt to force it
to move further. You may also
rotate the tweeter to orient the
JBL logo as desired.
