1. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
• Before installation or use, be sure to carefully read all the instructions in this section for correct and safe
operation.
• Be sure to follow all the precautionary instructions in this section, which contain important warnings and/or
cautions regarding safety.
• After reading, keep this manual handy for future reference.
Safety Symbol and Message Conventions
Safety symbols and messages described below are used in this manual to prevent bodily injury and property
damage which could result from mishandling. Before operating your product, read this manual first and
understand the safety symbols and messages so you are thoroughly aware of the potential safety hazards.
• Do not use anti-rust lubricant. If it contacts resin or
rubber parts, they could deteriorate and cause the
unit to fall, possibly resulting in personal injury.
WARNING
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which,
• Avoid installing the speaker in locations close to
if mishandled, could result in death or serious

are not well ventilated. In such locations the
bracket may be vulnerable to corrosion, eventually
When Installing the Unit
allowing the speaker to fall resulting in personal
injury.
• Install the unit only in a location that can
structurally support the weight of the unit and the
mounting bracket. Doing otherwise may result in
the unit falling down and causing personal injury
and/or property damage.
CAUTION
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which,
if mishandled, could result in moderate or minor
personal injury, and/or property damage.
• Do not use other methods than specified to mount
the bracket. Extreme force is applied to the unit
and the unit could fall off, possibly resulting in
personal injuries.
When Installing the Unit
• Use nuts and bolts that are appropriate for the
ceiling's or wall's structure and composition. Failure
to do so may cause the speaker to fall, resulting in
material damage and possible personal injury.
• Avoid touching the unit's sharp metal edge to
prevent injury.
• To avoid electric shocks, be sure to switch off the
unit's power when connecting speakers.
• Tighten each nut and bolt securely. Ensure that the
bracket has no loose joints after installation to
prevent accidents that could result in personal
injury.
When the Unit is in Use
• Do not place heavy objects on the unit as this may
cause it to fall or break which may result in
personal injury and/or property damage. In
addition, the object itself may fall off and cause
injury and/or damage.
• Do not mount the unit in locations exposed to
constant vibration. The mounting bracket can be
damaged by excessive vibration, potentially
causing the unit to fall, which could result in
personal injury.
• Do not operate the unit for an extended period of
time with the sound distorting. This is an indication
of a malfunction, which in turn can cause heat to
generate and result in a fire.
• (F-1000B, F-1000BT, F-1000W, F-1000WT only)
Since the unit is designed for in-door use, do not
install it outdoors. If installed outdoors, the aging of
parts causes the unit to fall off, resulting in personal
injury. Also, when it gets wet with rain, there is a
danger of electric shock.
• Do not stand or sit on, nor hang down from the unit
as this may cause it to fall down or drop, resulting
in personal injury and/or property damage.
• (F-1000BTWP, F-1000WTWP only)
• Have the unit checked periodically by the shop
from where it was purchased. Failure to do so may
result in corrosion or damage to the unit or its
mounting bracket that could cause the unit to fall,
possibly causing personal injury.
When installing the unit in the snowy area, take
appropriate measures to prevent snow from lying
on the unit. If the snow lies on the unit, the unit may
fall, causing personal injuries.

2. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
TOA's F-1000 Series Speakers are compact two-way speaker systems designed for high efficiency, wide
range, and high power input handling capability. These speaker systems can be installed in a manner ideal for
the location and intended application.
3. FEATURES
• 90º horizontal x 90º vertical wide directivity high-frequency horn.
• Supplied bracket permits mounting to a wall, ceiling, or an optional speaker stand.
• Combined use of the supplied bracket and optional mounting bracket allows the speakers to be mounted in
many different applications, including pole mounting,*1 clusters, horizontal ceiling mounting*2, and partition
board mounting*2.
• Both the F-1000BTWP and F-1000WTWP feature a waterproof design (IPX4 standard) for protection from
any adverse effects of outdoor installations.
*1 Applies to the F-1000BTWP and F-1000WTWP.
*2 Applies to the F-1000B, F-1000BT, F-1000W, and F-1000WT.

5. IMPEDANCE CHANGE (F-1000BT, F-1000BTWP, F-1000WT, and F-1000WTWP only)
To change the impedance, use a standard screwdriver to rotate the rotary switch on the speaker's rear to
select the desired input power.
Note: The switch is factory-preset to 670 Ÿ.
Important
Never set this switch to the "330 Ÿ" position when operating the speaker on 100 V line.
Failure to follow this instruction could result in damage to the speaker or amplifier.
6. ABOUT THE INPUT OVERLOAD PROTECTION CIRCUITRY
(F-1000B and F-1000W only)
The speaker system features internal input overload protection circuitry for both high and low frequencies.
If an excessive input level is fed to the unit, the protection circuitry automatically cuts off the signal to the
speaker driver.
A drastic reduction in sound volume for the high or low frequency range indicates that the protection circuitry
has been enabled.
In such cases, simply reduce the amplifier volume. The protection circuitry will automatically reset in
approximately 10 seconds. After reset, maintain the volume at a level slightly lower than before.
Note
This protection circuitry does not completely protect the unit against input overload. Depending on the type or
duration of excessive power input, the protection circuitry might not be enabled, resulting in damage to the
speaker driver. Also, if the excessive power input continues for a long period of time, the circuitry may not be
capable of resetting to its original condition.
Take care so that the speakers are not exposed to excessive power input.
