JBL continually strives to improve its products. New materials, production methods and design refinements are introduced
into existing models without notice as a routine expression of our design philosophy. For this reason, JBL loudspeakers
may differ in some respect from their published specifications and descriptions, but will always equal or exceed the original
specifications unless otherwise stated.
*The maximum recommended amplifier power rating will ensure proper system headroom to allow for occasional program
peaks. We do not recommend sustained operation at these maximum power levels.
FUSE REPLACEMENT
The CF120 & CF150 have fuses which will
protect the speaker from being overpow-
ered under normal conditions. Unscrew the
cap labeled "fuse" and replace with a
250V, 5 x 20mm, slow-blow TDS-type fuse:
2.5 Amp for CF120; 3.0 Amp for CF150.
Replacement with any other type fuse
will void your JBL warranty.
GENERAL CARE
The grille is held in place by pins near
the edges. To remove the grille, grasp it
by both top and bottom edges and pull
gently. To replace, reposition it carefully
and press gently at the corners. Do not
push on the center area of the grille.
The loudspeaker cabinet may be cleaned
with a slightly damp cloth. To remove dust
from the grille cloth, use a vacuum with a
brush attachment. Spots may be removed
with a commercial spot remover. Do not
use any cleaners or solvents on the
speaker drivers themselves.
SERVICE
Should your loudspeaker ever need service,
return it to the JBL dealer from whom it
was purchased. If for some reason this is
impractical, in the United States, call
800-336-4JBL for your nearest warranty
station.
Military personnel who purchased from
authorized military outlets should return
them to a similar outlet or contact:

Phone: 804-499-8901
FAX: 804-497-6690
If purchased outside the United States,
contact your local distributor to make
arrangements for repair service.
Do not
return products to the JBL factory.
