Planning for Installation Please allow a minimum of 11/2" of clearance all around the cutout behind the wallboard for your speakers. There must be at least 37/8" depth from the front of the drywall to the back of the cavity. Required Tools for Installation • Saber or keyhole saw or utility knife capable of cutting drywall • Medium Phillips screwdriver • Level (optional) Installation Procedure The RLS III is designed to be installed inside the walls of your home quickly and easily. Because of its superb sonic performance, installation location within your room is very flexible. Your room is not like anyone else's room, and because of its unique size and shape will have its own requirements for optimal sonic performance. We recommend that you consult with the Custom Installation Specialist at your Definitive Technology dealer regarding your special needs or if you are at all uncertain about the best and safest way to install your RLS III. • It is highly recommended that you take advantage of the expertise of a professional installation specialist. • Before starting construction or modification of your walls, you should familiarize yourself with any applicable local fire and building codes. • Make sure the locations you select do not conceal studs, electrical wiring or plumbing. Prior to installation, hold the speaker in your chosen location to make sure it safely clears obstacles such as studs, corners, beams, lighting fixtures and door/window frames. Your cutout must be at least 1" (25 mm) from adjoining walls or ceiling, and 11/2" (38 mm) internal studs or plumbing. Note that the frame around the inset loudspeaker extends 1" beyond your cutout. 4
