UNPaCkINg The sPeakeR
CAUTION: The 4365 weighs 86.4kg (190 lb). To avoid personal injury or damage to floors or the
speaker, we strongly recommend that at least two people unpack and move the speaker.
The speaker has rounded, stainless-steel feet installed on the bottom of its cabinet. To avoid damage to your floor,
we strongly advise that you unpack the speaker on a well-protected surface, such as a thick carpet or a thick piece of
cardboard.
TO UNPACK THE SPEAKER:
Carefully cut the tape on the carton’s front flap. Note: Only three of the flap’s four edges have tape.1.
Open the flaps and remove the side filler sleeves by pulling them straight out of the carton.2.
Stand on the box’s lower flap and gently rock the speaker and its packing back and 3.
forth while pulling it out of the carton. In this way you can “walk” the speaker out of the
carton. It helps to have a second person hold the carton steady from the back side.
Once the speaker is out of the carton, remove the upper and middle pads. The speaker’s accessories are packed 4.
on the top end of the upper pad, so be careful not to discard them.
Remove the cloth bag covering the speaker.5.
With another person’s help, carefully tilt the speaker on its side onto a thickly carpeted or well-padded surface and 6.
remove the bottom pad. Then tilt the speaker back up on its feet.
