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
[Note]
Keep your speakers at least 10 mm away from the system for proper ventilation.
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 floor or a sturdy shelf so that it won’t cause vibration. Leave 10 cm at the rear for ventilation.
Caution
Hold the speakers by the sides. Applying pressure to the front net can damage the speaker.
Notes on speaker use
≥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 receiving howling from 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 supplied 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
≥The main unit and supplied speakers are to be used only as indicated in this setup. Failure to do so may lead to damage to the amplifier and/or the speakers, and may result in the risk of fire. Consult a qualified service person if damage has occurred or if you experience a sudden change in performance.
≥Do not attempt to attach these speakers to walls using methods other than those described in this manual.
