TEMPLATE INSTRUCTIONS

1.) Select the desired location for wall mounting after carefully reviewing the

"General Precautions and Recommendations" of the wall mounting

instructions.

2.) Tape the template to the wall, or other surface, in the desired location. Align

the top edge of the template with the pencil mark you made on the wall. Be

sure to allow at least 3" clearance above the main unit, for the CD door to open

fully.

3.) Make sure that the template is level.

4.) Use an awl, ice pick, a nail or similar pointed tool, and push through the template

to make a small starter hole in the wall surface as indicated by the "Drill Hole

Here" marks. Then remove the template from the wall.

5.) Before You Drill: Make sure that there are no water plpes, gas pipes,

electrical wires on other obstructions or hazards behind the wall in your

chosen mounting location. If you are not sure about this. and don't know

how to check, perhaps you should consider having the system mounted

by someone with the necessary experience.

6.) Make sure that you are using the correct type of anchors for your wall. If the

wall material is Sheetrock

®

(sometimes called wall-board, gypsum-board, or

plaster-board) you can use plastic ‘hollow-wall anchors’. If your wall is solid
plaster, concrete, brick, or similar solid material, use the appropriate type of
‘solid-wall anchors’. If your wall is solid wood, you may be able to use round-
head wood screws without anchors.

IMPORTANT: If you have no experience installing wall anchors you should have

this system mounted by someone who does have the proper experience.

Whichever type anchors you use, make sure that the diameter of the screw

heads is at least 1/4”.

Follow the instructions supplied with the wall anchors to determine the proper size

drill bit to use in your electric drill. After installing the proper size bit, drill holes in

the wall surface at the 4 locations where you made the starter holes in Step 4.
