SERVICE PERSONNEL.  
7.Ventilation - The appliance should be situated so that its location or position  
does not interfere with its proper ventilation. For example, the appliance  
should not be situated on a bed, sofa, rug, or similar surface that may block  
the ventilation openings; or, placed in a built-in installation, such as a  
bookcase or cabinet that may impede the flow of air through the ventilation  
openings.  
The lighting flash with arrowhead symbol, within an  
equilateral triangle, is intended to alert the user to the  
presence of uninsulated dangerous voltage within the  
product's enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude  
to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons.  
8. Heat - The appliance should be situated away from heat sources such as  
radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other appliances (including amplifiers)  
that produce heat.  
9. Cleaning - The appliance should be cleaned only as recommended by  
the manufacturer.  
10. Object and Liquid Entry - Care should be taken so that objects do not fall  
and liquids are not spilled into the enclosure through openings.  
The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is  
intended to alert the user to the presence of important  
operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the  
literature accompanying the appliance.  
11. Damage Requiring Service - The appliance should be serviced by qualified  
service personnel when:  
A. Objects have fallen or liquid has been spilled into the appliance; or  
B. The appliance has been exposed to rain; or

referred to qualified service personnel.  
 
Note: With the SS6VC (not shown), you can add up to 2 more rooms.  
B. Speaker Connection:  
PLACEMENT  
Because the SS4VC and SS6VC both contain resistors which  
consume power and dissipate current in the form of heat, the unit  
should be placed in a location that won’t heat other source  
equipment and where there is good ventilation. If placing it in an  
enclosed cabinet or between shelving, make sure there is adequate  
space (at least two inches) on all sides and between the top of the  
switcher and any shelving, cabinetry, or components placed above  
it. A fan may be needed to draw air through the cabinet or shelving  
unit if components get too warm. We recommend that you do not  
place the unit on top of your receiver or amplifier.  
1. With appropriate speaker wire, connect the first pair of speakers  
to the left SPEAKER 1 connections on the back of the  
SS4VC/SS6VC. Make sure the speaker positive (+) is connected to  
the SS4VC/SS6VC positive (+), the speaker negative (-) to the  
SS4VC/SS6VC negative (-).  
2. Repeat step 1 for the remaining speaker pairs.  
FRONT PANEL OPERATION  
Since your SS4VC and SS6VC will be used as a central switcher for  
multiple speaker pairs, it should be easily accessible. When placing  
it with other electronics, the SS4VC and SS6VC should be placed in  
a location that will accommodate the mass of speaker wires that will  
be connected between it, the speakers, and receiver or amplifier.  
Operation of the SPEAKER Buttons:  
To e ng a ge a ny p a i r of speakers, push in the button which  
corresponds to the pair of speakers you want to turn on. The “in”  
position means the speakers are on.Any combination of the speaker  
pairs may be played at once. To disengage any pair of speakers, push  
in the button which corresponds to the pair of speakers you want to  
turn off. The “out” position means the speakers are off.  
WIRING  
Note: A slight decrease in volume may occur when additional  
speakers are engaged.  
IMPORTANT: Always use high grade speaker wire such as Sonance  
MediaLinQ™.We recommend 18 GA wire for runs of 50 feet or less,  
16 GA for runs of 50-100 feet, or 14 GA for runs over 100 feet.  
A. Source Connection:  
1. Connect the left speaker output of the receiver or amplifier to the  
left INPUT connector of the SS4VC/SS6VC (see diagram above).  
Make sure that the positive (+) terminal of the receiver or amplifier  
connects to the positive (+) terminal of the input connector of the  
SS4VC/SS6VC. The negative (-) connection should be connected to  
the negative (-) terminal of the input connector of the  
SS4VC/SS6VC.  
2. Repeat step 1 for the right side, connecting the right speaker  
output of the receiver or amplifier to the right INPUT connector of  
the SS4VC/SS6VC (see diagram above).
