CARE AND  
MAINTENANCE  
Your Optimus STS 800 8-Inch Three-  
Way Tower Speaker is an example of  
superior design and craftsmanship.  
The following suggestions will help you  
care for your speaker so you can enjoy  
it for years.  
• Handle the speaker gently and  
carefully. Don’t drop it!  
• Use and store the speaker only in  
normal temperature environments.  
To maintain the speaker cabinet’s  
finish, do not let it come in contact  
with water vapor, alcohol, ben-  
zene, insecticide, or similar liquids.  
Do not place a plastic covering on  
top of the speaker, as the plastic’s  
color could come off and stick to  
the finish.  
4. Press the right speaker’s positive  
(+) terminal tab and insert the  
other bare wire end into the open-  
ing. Then release the tab.  
5. Insert the other end of the wire you  
inserted into the right speaker’s  
negative (–) terminal into your  
amplifier/receiver’s right negative  
(–) speaker terminal.  
• Clean the speaker cabinet with a  
soft, dry cloth.  
Caution: You might permanently  
damage your speaker by cleaning  
it with a vacuum cleaner. Instead,  
use a feather duster or a soft cloth.  
Note: For the maximum bass  
response and the best perfor-  
mance, be sure your speaker  
wires are properly connected  
according to their polarity (+ to +  
and – to –).  
• Never touch the speaker elements  
with your hands or expose them to  
excessive shocks. If they become  
dented or bent, the sound distorts.  
6. Connect the remaining wire to the  
amplifier/receiver’s right positive  
(+) speaker terminal.  
Modifying or tampering with the speak-  
er’s internal components can cause a  
malfunction and might invalidate your  
speaker’s warranty. If your speaker is  
not performing as it should, take it to  
your local RadioShack store for assis-  
tance.  
7. Repeat this process to connect  
another speaker to your amplifier/  
receiver’s left speaker terminals.
