AND

Thank you for purchasing
Klipsch ICAST and IC-6T in-ceiling speakers.

The IC-5T and IC-éT in-ceiling speakers have been designed for
speech and music reinforcement applications. Unobtrusive, these
loudspeakers are engineered for easy, versatile installation.

The IC-5T and IC-6T feature an internal transformer for 70.7V/lOOV
distributed-line systems. The transformer tops are selected using a
rotary switch located conveniently under the grille. For applica-
tions where 16 ohm operation is required, the transformer can be
by-passed by using an optional connection located on the back
input terminal.

Before installing your speakers, take a moment to check the con-
tents of the cartons and make sure nothing has been damaged
in transit.

Installation Guidelines

The IC-5T and IC-éT include a tilebridge for use when installing
the loudspeaker into suspended ceilings or wherever additional
reinforcement of the ceiling material is required. The tilebridge
and loudspeaker are designed such that installation may be
accomplished where access above the ceiling is not possible
or may be difficult.

Installation

1. The tilebridge is composed of three partsia reinforcement
ring and two rails. The two rails should be attached to the rein-
forcement ring using the two included screws as shown below.

Caution: Be sure to comply with any and all building codes
in your area.

2. To install your lC-5T or IC-éT, cut out a hole in the ceiling using
either the cardboard cutout template provided with your speak-
ers or consult the measurements below. Pull wiring through hole.

IC-5T 8.25"

IC-6T 9.75"

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 ensure 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 adaptor (provided). Feed wires through
conduit/wire adapter and strip the insulation back approxi-
mately 3/16". Connect the wires to the appropriate input
terminal. 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.
