top of the terminal down and insert the bare wire into the opening. When the wire is
fully in place with no loose strands exposed, release the terminal. The cable is now
connected. Please refer to figure 8 for correct cable connection.

The enclosed cut-out template (see figure 9) can be used to initially visualize how
your loudspeakers should be mounted and for marking where the cut-out should be
made. Tape the template at the preferred mounting position, so that you can mark
the necessary opening. The minimum mounting depth for the DALI PHANTOM K
models can be found in the Technical Specifications.

Please study and follow the safety guidelines found in chapter 2.0 of this manual! Use
a trained professional to ensure that all safety requirements are met to prevent the
loudspeaker from falling.
The following tools and items are necessary for proper installation:
•
Tape measure
•
Pencil and saw or knife
•
Appropriate bit or screwdriver
•
Tape
•
Cut-out template
When the correct placement has been found, tape the mounting template to the
surface. Outline the cut-out area with a pencil.
Remove the template and drill holes for insertion of saw or knife. Saw/cut carefully
along the line marked with pencil.
When the hole for the loudspeaker is made, make sure that the loudspeaker cable
is not hanging loose inside the ceiling/wall. It must be securely fastened to the inside
of the ceiling/wall to prevent tension on the cable when the cable is connected with
the terminals of the loudspeaker. If left unsupported, cable can gradually come
loose, creating a poor electrical connection between wire and terminals (see figure
8 for correct fastening of the cable).
When the speaker cable is fastened and the hole for the loudspeaker is prepared,
you are ready to connect the speaker cables. Connect cable to the terminals –
being careful to connect the amplifier's red (+) terminal to the loudspeaker's red (+)
terminal and the amplifier's black (-) terminal to the loudspeaker's black (-) terminal.
Please refer to chapter 4.5 of this manual.
When the cables are connected, turn on the system and listen to the loudspeakers
before final mounting to make sure that all connections are correct. Insert the
loudspeaker in the ceiling/wall opening and align the loudspeaker as described in
chapter 4.4.
