Preparations

 

Surround speaker

Listening position

Front speakers : Place to the front left and right of the listening position. Front speakers are required for all surround modes.

Center speaker : Place front and center. This speaker stabilizes the sound image and helps recreate sound motion. Be sure to connect a center speaker when using the Dolby 3 Stereo mode.

Surround speakers : Place to the direct left and right, or slightly behind, the listening position at even heights, approximately 1 meter above the ears of the listeners. These speakers recreate sound motion and atmosphere. Required for surround playback.

Subwoofer : Reproduces powerful deep bass sounds.

•Although the ideal surround system consists of all the speakers listed above, if you don't have a center speaker or a subwoofer, you can

divide those signals between the available speakers in the speaker settings steps to obtain the best possible surround reproduction from

the speakers you have available.

•Insert four R6/AA-size alkaline batteries as indicated by the polarity markings.

Channel space switching(Except for the USA, Canada, UK, Europe, and Australia)

The space between radio channels has been set to the one that prevails in the area to which the system is shipped. However, if the current channel space setting does not match the setting in the area where the system is to be used, for instance when you move from area 1 or area 2 shown in the following table or vice versa, proper reception of AM/FM broadcasts cannot be expected. In this case, change the channel space setting in accordance with your area by referring to the following table.

Notes

1.The supplied batteries may have shorter lives than ordinary batteries due to use during operation checks.

2.When the remote-controllable distance gets shorter than before, replace all batteries with new ones.

3.Placing the remote sensor in direct sunlight, or in direct light from a high frequency fluorescent lamp may cause a malfunction.

In such a case, change the location of the system installation to prevent malfunction.
