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.

from FM broadcasts, 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

Consult a qualified service person if damage has occurred or if you experience a sudden change in performance.
