Preparing the remote control

• Do not use rechargeable

type batteries.

R6/LR6, AA

1 Insert so the poles

(+ and –) match those in

the remote control.

Do not:

• mix old and new batteries.

• use different types of batteries at the same time.

• heat or expose batteries to ﬂ ame.

• take apart or short circuit the batteries.

• attempt to recharge alkaline or manganese batteries.

• use batteries if the covering has been peeled off.

Mishandling of batteries can cause electrolyte leakage which can severely damage the remote control.

Remove the batteries if the remote control is not going to be used for a long period of time. Store in a cool,

dark place.

SETUP EXAMPLE

Place the front, center, and surround speakers

at approximately the same distance from the

seating position. The angles in the diagram are

approximate.

Main Unit

• Other speaker setup options (\ page 6).

Use only supplied speakers

• Using other speakers can damage the unit, and

sound quality will be negatively affected.

• Set the speakers up on an even surface to prevent

them from falling. Take proper precautions to

prevent the speakers from falling if you cannot set

them up on an even surface.

Main unit

• Keep your speakers at least 10 mm away from the

system for proper ventilation.

• To allow proper ventilation and to maintain good

airﬂ ow around the main unit, position it with at least

5 cm of space on all sides.

• Do not block the ventilation holes of the main unit.

Center speaker

• Vibration caused by the center speaker can disrupt

the picture if it is placed directly on the television.

Put the center speaker on a rack or shelf.

• To prevent the speakers from falling, do not place

directly on top of the television.

Subwoofer

• Place to the right or left of the television, on the

ﬂ oor or a sturdy shelf so that it will not cause

vibration. Leave a space of 30 cm from the

television.

Caution

• Refrain from holding

the speaker’s net.

Example: Front speaker

Note

• You can damage your speakers and shorten their

useful life if you play sound at high levels over

extended periods.

• Reduce the volume in the following cases to avoid

damage:

– When playing distorted sound.

– When the speakers are reverberating due to

a record player, noise from FM broadcasts, or

continuous signals from an oscillator, test disc, or

electronic instrument.

– When adjusting the sound quality.

– When turning the unit on or off.

If irregular coloring occurs on your television

The front and center speakers are designed to

be used close to a television, but the picture

may be affected with some televisions and setup

combinations.

If this occurs, turn the television off for about 30

minutes.

The television’s demagnetizing function should

correct the problem. If it persists, move the speakers

further away from the television.

Caution

•

Use the speakers only with the recommended

system. Failure to do so can damage the

ampliﬁ er and speakers, and can cause ﬁ re.

Consult a qualiﬁ ed service person if damage

occurs or if a sudden change in performance

is apparent.

• Do not attempt to attach these speakers

to walls using methods other than those

described in this manual.
