• use different types of batteries at the same time.
• heat or expose batteries to fl ame.
• take apart or short circuit the batteries.

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.

Placement of speakers
• 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
How you set up your speakers can affect the bass and the sound fi eld. Note the following points:
• Place speakers on fl at secure bases.
• Placing speakers too close to fl oors, walls, and corners can result in excessive bass. Cover walls and windows
with thick curtains.
SPEAKERS SETUP EXAMPLE
Place the front, center, and surround speakers at
approximately the same distance from the seating

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 farther
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.
