Caution

Optional surround speaker connections

•Do not connect this speaker to any amplifier other than the one supplied with this system. Connection to any other amplifier may result in a malfunction or fire.

•Make sure that the bare speaker wires cannot touch each other, or come into contact with other metal parts once the unit is switched on.

•Do not attach these speakers to the wall or ceiling. They may fall off and cause injury.

Using RCA speaker cables, you can connect surround speakers to the left and right SURROUND speaker jacks on the rear panel for multichannel sound from this system.

For the best surround effect, place the surround speakers slightly above ear level and at the same distance from the listening position as the front speakers.

Important

•Use speakers with a nominal impedance of at least 16Ω.

Note

1The speakers supplied with this system are magnetically shielded. However, placing them extremely close to a television may result in color distortion on the screen. If this happens, move the speakers a little further away and switch off the television for 15–30 minutes.
