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 television
The front and center 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 demagnetizing function of the television should correct the problem. If it persists, move the speakers further away from the television.
