Large & Small Trim Rings Lens LightSpeaker® 5 Note: The LightSpeaker® 5 is an add on unit to an existing LightSpeaker® System. You need a LightSpeaker® Transmitter to supply audio and control the lights on this unit. The Transmitter and Remote discussed in the manual are sold separately.
Tech Support: 1-800-KLIPSCH Instruction Manual Step 1: Decide which light will be replaced with LightSpeaker® 5. Your Klipsch® LightSpeaker® 5 has been specifically designed to cover large areas, however if the location of your fixtures allow you to do so, you should think about how you use your room and where you are likely to spend most of your time. Then choose the fixtures that are most evenly spaced to your preferred listening position.
Tech Support: 1-800-KLIPSCH Step 3: Test fit your LightSpeaker® 5. Your LightSpeaker® 5 is designed to fit directly into most 5“ (R30) and 6“ (R40) down light cans by simply removing the existing light and, in the same manner as a light bulb, re-installing your LightSpeaker® 5 in its place. You may simply test fit your LightSpeaker® 5. If your LightSpeaker® 5 fits directly into your recessed lighting fixture without any modifications you can skip forward to Step 6.
Tech Support: 1-800-KLIPSCH B) The thinner one is used when installed into a 5” fixture. As long as the trim ring covers the edges of the lighting fixture and any rough drywall edges you may use either trim ring; it will not affect the performance of your LightSpeaker® 5. Step 5: Adjusting the SimpleTabs™. Your LightSpeaker® 5 is equipped with a unique mounting system.
Tech Support: 1-800-KLIPSCH If you are installing into a 6” recessed lighting fixture, rotate each of the SimpleTabs™ out to position “A” on the top of the LightSpeaker® 5 unit. SimpleTabsTM Step 6: Setting the Zone and L/R Stereo Switches. A) Set the zone switch on the back of the LightSpeaker® 5 to one, unless you are setting up a two zone system. For more on zones see Complete System Manual or go to www.Klipsch.com.
Tech Support: 1-800-KLIPSCH B) Set the left/right stereo switch. “L” if it is the left speaker, “R” if it is the right speaker. For additional information see Selecting LightSpeaker® 5 Locations on page 16. C) Your LightSpeaker® 5 system allows you to install up to 4 pair of (or 8 total ) speakers. If you are installing more than one pair of LightSpeakers® 5 you will probably want to divide your home into zones. See Complete System Manual or go to www.Klipsch.com.
Tech Support: 1-800-KLIPSCH 1) Grasp the Edison Socket with one hand, and with the other hand screw the LightSpeaker® 5 into the socket on the pigtail.

Turning the socket will twist up the pigtail and put unneeded stress on the connection. 2) Grasp the LightSpeaker® 5 by the light bridge (see section titled “Removing the Lens” below) and while holding it level and steady, firmly push it back into the lighting fixture.

Tech Support: 1-800-KLIPSCH B) Removal of the lens AFTER your LightSpeaker® 5 has been installed. 1) There are three small indentations around the lens; with a small tip common screwdriver, nail file, paper clip or similar object, gently slip the tip into the indentation and pry the lens outward until the retaining tabs pull free. 2) To re-install the lens, align the tabs and the hole for the pairing LED, then push gently until the locking tabs snap into place.
Tech Support: 1-800-KLIPSCH Selecting LightSpeaker® 5 Locations Survey your home to determine the location of 5” and 6” recessed lighting fixtures. As long as these are wired to the home’s electricity through a common light switch, they should work perfectly. If you have multiple locations within one room, try to space the speakers as far as part as possible, this will provide the best stereo image and the best sound. In general, the maximum spacing of the speakers is determined by ceiling height.
