Setup

Connecting to Sonos Amp

These speakers are passive and require a Sonos Amp for power and audio signal. A single Sonos Amp can power up to three pairs of Sonos by Sonance Architectural speakers. Ensure proper wiring using appropriate speaker cables (not included) to connect the speakers to the Sonos Amp.

Mounting

The speakers come with mounting brackets for secure installation. Choose a suitable outdoor location, ideally under an overhang, to provide additional protection from extreme weather conditions. The brackets allow for flexible positioning to optimize sound dispersion.

Initial Configuration (Sonos App)

After physical installation and wiring, download the Sonos app on your smartphone or tablet. Follow the in-app instructions to detect and configure your Sonos Amp and connected Outdoor by Sonance speakers. The app will guide you through optimizing the acoustic settings for your outdoor space, including Trueplay tuning if supported by your Sonos Amp.

Operating Instructions

Controlling Your Speakers

Your Sonos Outdoor by Sonance speakers are controlled primarily through the Sonos app. This allows you to:

• Stream music via Wi-Fi from various services.
• Adjust volume, skip tracks, and manage playback.
• Group speakers with other Sonos devices for multi-room audio.
• Utilize voice control features if your Sonos Amp is integrated with a compatible voice assistant.

For detailed app usage and advanced features, refer to the Sonos app's help section or the official Sonos support website.

Maintenance

The Sonos Outdoor by Sonance speakers feature a weatherproof design, engineered to withstand humidity, water, salt spray, heat, UV rays, and freezing temperatures. To ensure their longevity and optimal performance:

• Cleaning: Periodically wipe down the speaker enclosures with a soft, damp cloth to remove dirt, dust, or salt residue. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
• Inspection: Regularly inspect the speaker grilles and mounting hardware for any signs of wear or damage. Ensure all connections remain secure.
• Environmental Protection: While weatherproof, placing speakers under an overhang or in a sheltered area can further extend their lifespan and maintain aesthetic condition.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your Sonos Outdoor by Sonance speakers, consider the following:

• No Sound: Ensure the Sonos Amp is powered on and properly connected to the speakers. Check all speaker wire connections for tightness and correct polarity. Verify that the correct audio source is selected in the Sonos app.
• Poor Sound Quality: Check speaker placement and ensure they are not obstructed. Use the Trueplay tuning feature in the Sonos app (if available with your Amp) to optimize sound for your environment. Inspect speaker wires for damage.
• Connectivity Issues: Confirm your Sonos Amp is connected to your Wi-Fi network. Restart your router, Sonos Amp, and the Sonos app.
• Distorted Audio: Reduce the volume level. Check for any loose connections or damaged speaker components.

For persistent issues, consult the Sonos support website or contact customer service.
