∫Notes on speaker use

≥Use only supplied speakers

Using other speakers can damage the unit, and sound quality will be

negatively affected.

≥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 reverberating due to 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 TV

The front and center speakers are designed to be used close to a TV, but the picture may be affected with some TVs and setup combinations.

If this occurs, turn the TV off for about 30 minutes.

The demagnetizing function of the TV should correct the problem. If it persists, move the speakers further away from the TV.

∫Caution

Do not touch the front netted area of the speakers. Hold by the sides.
