SONOS USER GUIDE

You can put your speaker just about anywhere. For maximum performance, we have a few guidelines:
• The Play:5 is a substantial and powerful speaker and should be placed on a flat surface that is robust and 
durable enough to properly support it. Make sure the Play:5’s rubber feet sit completely on the flat 
surface.
• Allow at least 2" perimeter all around the Play:5 including its power cord.
Join button Press to connect during setup.
Ethernet port  Use the supplied Ethernet cable if you want to connect 
to a router, computer, or network-attached storage 
(NAS) device (optional).
AC power (mains) input  Use only the supplied power cord (using a third-party 
power cord will void your warranty). 
Note: Insert the power cord firmly until it is flush with 
the bottom of the speaker.
Stereo audio in (3.5mm / 1/8") Use to connect external music players.
