We’re confident that the JBL system you have chosen will provide every note of enjoyment that you expected – and that when you think about purchasing additional audio equipment for your home, car or office, you will once again choose JBL.
CONNECTIONS NOTES: For the sake of simplicity, throughout this manual we have used the term “source” when describing connections and operation. This would apply to any device such as an A/V receiver, audio component, computer or portable music player. Step 2. Determine the location of the surround speakers. Subwoofer The JBL On Air Control 2.4G is designed for use in most countries worldwide, depending upon local regulations.
Step 3. Connect the speaker wire (included) to the push terminals on the active speaker 5 and the push terminals on the rear of the passive speaker 9. See Figure 3. Please note that the speaker wire supplied features a polarity stripe to help distinguish its two conductors. Use this polarity stripe to ensure that you are connecting the positive (+) terminal on one speaker to the positive (+) terminal on the other, and the negative (–) to the negative (–).
When connected properly, the top LED on the front of the active speaker should be green. When first plugged in, it will sometimes take several seconds for the Control 2.4G active speaker to initialize and “wake up.” Until then, the top LED will be in red. Once the top LED is green, the bottom LED should flash green until the transmitter and active speaker “lock in.” It will then also light in solid green.
OPERATION Adjusting the Volume Application 1 Adding surround speakers to a home theater system: In this application, the output level of your Control 2.4G active speakers will not only be dependent on the volume setting of your A/V source; it will also need to be properly adjusted after installation and before use in order to be able to work correctly with the other speakers in your multichannel surround system.

It is not to be used for ceiling mounting. Ceiling mounting of the Control 2.4G transmitter and/or speakers is not recommended, regardless of bracket used. A.
