CAUTION

When installing the satellite speakers on the wall (TH-A55 only);

Be sure to have them installed on the wall by a qualified personnel.

DO NOT install the satellite speakers on the wall by yourself to avoid unexpected damage from their falling off the wall due to incorrect installation or weakness in wall structure.

Care must be taken in selecting a location for speaker installation on a wall. Injury to personnel or damage to equipment may result if the speakers installed interfere with daily activities.

Before installing the satellite speakers on the wall, be sure to detach the speaker stands equipped with the satellite speakers by removing the tilt adjustment screws.

NOTE

You can attach the satellite speakers to the separately sold TV stand instead of the stands attached to them at your purchase. For assembling the TV stand and speakers, be sure to use the screws supplied with the TV stand. Using the screws attached to the speakers may damage the speakers. For details, refer to the instructions manual supplied with the TV stand.

You can tilt the satellite speakers and center speaker. Loosen the tilt adjustment screw, adjust the angle, then tighten the screw.
