3. To install the tilebridge, fold the rail side of the ring back upon itself using the spring tensioner on the reinforcement ring to allow insertion into the cutout hole. Once it is inserted into the cutout hole, release the reinforcement ring such that it unfolds back to its normal position. Position tilebridge over cutout hole, and insure that the tile rails rest on the t grid struts. 4. The wiring compartment is intended as a termination point for the audio circuit. Access to this compartment is gained by removing the terminal cover located on the back of the speaker. The terminal cover will accept the appropriate conduit/wire adapter (provided). Feed wires through conduit/wire adapter and connect to the input terminal according to the desired operation mode. Be sure to observe proper polarity. Replace the terminal cover and tighten the conduit/wire adapter to secure the wire. Caution: When connecting 70V or 100V distributed line systems, take care to ensure proper terminal connection. Connection to the low impedance termi nal could result in speaker damage, amplifier damage, or both. Thank you for purchasing your Klipsch IC400T, IC525T or IC650T inceiling speakers. The IC 400 T, IC 525 T and IC 650 T in ceiling speakers have been designed for music reinfor cement applications. Unobtrusive, these loudspeakers are engineered for easy, versatile installation. The IC 400 T, IC 525 T and IC 650 T feature an internal transformer for 70V/100V distributed line systems. The transformer taps are selected using a rotary switch located conveniently under the grille. For applications where 8 ohm operation is required, the transformer can be by passed by using an optional connection located on the back input terminal and selectin 8 Ohm on the front switch. Before installing your speakers take a moment to check the contents of the cartons and make sure nothing has been damaged in transit. Contents Description Q UANTITY Speaker Modules 2 Grille \ 2 Reinforcement Ring 2 Rails \ 4 Cardboard Cutout Template and Paint Mask 2 Screws (Attach Rails to Reinforcement Ring) 8 3/ 4" Adapter Fittings 2 Installation Guidelines The IC 400 T, IC 525 T and IC 650 T include a tilebridge for use when installing the loudspeaker into suspended ceilings or wher ever additional r einforcement of the ceiling material is required. The tilebridge and loudspeaker are designed such that installa tion may be accomplished where access above the ceiling is not possible or may be difficult. Installation 1. The tilebridge is composed of three parts a reinforcement ring and two rails. The two rails should be attached to the reinforce ment ring using the four included screws as shown below. Caution: Be sure to comply with any and all building codes in your area. 2. To install your IC 400 T, IC 525 T or IC 650 T cut out a hole in the ceiling using either the cardboard cutout template provided with your speakers or consult the measurements below. Pull wiring through hole. IC400T, IC525T & IC650T IC400T, IC525T 9.125 "Round IC650T 10.125 "Round

5. Insert the speaker into the cutout hole. With a #2 Phillips screw driver, tighten the four dog clamps until they are seated securely against the ceiling surface. Do not overtighten. 6. For installations using 70v/100v input connection, set the switch on the front panel to the desired setting. For applications where 8 Ohm impedance is desired, the switch should be set to 8 Ohms. Note: The speaker comes from the factory set at the lowest output setting (highest impedance). 7. Using the flat of your hand, insert grille into speaker frame making sure it is securely seated and flush. Seismic Tab A seismic tab, located on the back of the speaker, is used as a secondary security point. Some construction codes may requir e its use. To utilize the seismic tab, run a support wire from a secure point in the ceiling and attach it to the tab. Be sure to consult the construction codes in your area. Klipsch recommends the use of this tab in all installations as a secondary means of support. 15W 7.5W 15W 1.875W 3.75W 3.75W 7.5W 70V 100V IC400T tap selectable 30W 7.5W15W 30W 3.75W 7.5W 15W 70V 100V IC525T tap selectable 60W 60W 15W30W 7.5W 15W 30W 70V 100V IC650T tap selectable
