Selecting the Listening Position
The listening position should be located about 2.5 to 3
times the distance of the TV's screen size away from the
TV. Example: For 32" TVs 2_2.4m (6_8 feet)
For 55" TVs 3.5_4m (11_13 feet)
Rear Speakers _)
Place these speakers behind your listening position.
Ifthere isn't enough room, place these speakers so they face each
other
Place them about 60 to 90cm (2 to 3feet) above your ear, facing
slightly downward.

WIRELESS RECEIVER MODULE
When the wireless receiving module setting is complete, noaudio signal is output from the Rear Speaker OUT ports on the back
of the main unit.
The wireless receiving antenna is built into the wireless receiver module. Keep the unit away from water and moisture.
For optimal listening performance, make sure that the area around the wireless receiver module location is clear of any obstruc-
tions.
Sound will be heard from the wireless rear speakers in DVD 5.!-OH or Dolby Pro Logic I! mode only.
In 2-OH mode, no sound will be heard from the wireless rear speakers.
Place the wireless receiver module at the rear of the listening position. Ifthe wireless receiver module is too close to the main
unit, some sound interruption may be heard due to interference.
If you use a device such as a microwave oven, wireless LAN Card, Bluetooth equipment, or any other device that uses the same
frequency (2.4GHz) near the system, some sound interruption may be heard due to interference.
The transmission distance of radio wave is about 33 feet, but may vary depending on your operating environment.
If a steel-concrete wall or metallic wall is between the main unit and the wireless receiver module, the system may not operate at
al!, because the radio wave cannot penetrate metal.
