–The lens may cloud over when the
player is suddenly moved from cold to
warm surroundings, making it impossible
to play a disc. Leave the player in the
warm environment until the moisture
evaporates.
Do not block the vents
–Do not operate the DVD system/AV
Subwoofer in an enclosed cabinet and allow
about 10 cm (4 inches) of free space all
around the player for adequate ventilation.

For best possible surround sound, all the
speakers (except AV subwoofer) should
be placed at the same distance from the
listening position.
1Place the front left and right speakers at
equal distances from the TV and at an
angle of approximately 45 degrees from
the listening position.
2Place the centre speaker above the TV or
the DVD system so that the centre
channel’s sound is localised.
3Place the rear speakers at normal
listening ear level facing each other or
hang on the wall.
4Place the AV subwoofer on the floor near
the TV.
Helpful Hints:
–To avoid magnetic interference, do not
position the front speakers too close to your
TV.
–Allow adequate ventilation around the
DVD system/AV subwoofer.
1Look for the matching color sticker at
the bottom of the speakers and on top of
the speaker stands before attaching them.
2If you want to disconnect speaker from
the speaker stand, use a sharp end object
(e.g. pen) to slot into the small hole at
the rear of the speaker stand while
pulling up the speaker.
Helpful Hints:
– Red colour stickers for front right and
white colour stickers for front left.
–Grey colour stickers for rear right and blue
colour stickers for rear left.
