time.
•Do not keep together with metallic objects such as

Correct method of use

Operation notes

•Do not place obstacles between the remote control signal
sensor and remote control unit.
•Do not expose the remote control signal sensor to direct
sunlight or to the bright light of a fluorescent light.
•Take care to keep the remote control signal sensor and the
end of the remote control unit free from dust.
•If this system is installed in a rack with glass doors, the
glass doors’ thickness or color might make it necessary to
use the remote control unit a shorter distance from the
system.

To prevent damage

•Never place heavy items on top of the unit.
•Do not disassemble or reconstruct the unit.
•Do not spill water or other liquids into the unit.

Placement of speakers

Place the speakers so that the super woofer is on the
outside.
Notes
•Keep your speakers at least 10
mm (13/32˝) away from the
system for proper ventilation.
•The super woofers are located on the sides of the
speakers. Leave 10-cm clearance for them to be effective.
•These speakers do not have magnetic shielding. Do not
place them near televisions, personal computers or other
devices easily influenced by magnetism.
•To avoid damage to the speakers, do not touch the
speaker cones if you have taken the nets off.

Listening caution

Selecting fine audio equipment such as the unit you’ve just
purchased is only the start of your musical enjoyment. Now
it’s time to consider how you can maximize the fun and ex-
citement your equipment offers. This manufacturer and the
Electronic Industries Association’s Consumer Electronics
Group want you to get the most out of your equipment by
playing it at a safe level. One that lets the sound come
through loud and clear without annoying blaring or distor-
tion—and, most importantly, without affecting your sensi-
tive hearing.
We recommend you to avoid prolonged exposure to exces-
sive noise.
Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing “comfort
level” adapts to higher volumes of sound. So what sounds
“normal” can actually be loud and harmful to your hearing.
Guard against this by setting your equipment at a safe
level BEFORE your hearing adapts.
To establish a safe level:
•Start your volume control at a low setting.
•Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it
comfortably and clearly, and without distortion.
Once you have established a comfortable sound level:
•Set the dial and leave it there.
Taking a minute to do this now will help to prevent hearing
damage or loss in the future. After all, we want you listen-
ing for a lifetime.
