Setting up your DVD/CD Receiver
When connecting this system or changing connections, be sure to switch the power off with the STANDBY/ON button, and disconnect the power cord from the AC outlet. Do not use these speakers with any other system or amplifier as this may result in damage or fire.
1Check that you have all the accessories, then put the batteries in the remote control.
2Connect the AM and FM antennas to the rear panel of the DVD/CD receiver.
Using the remote control
The remote control can be used within a range of about 7 meters from the remote sensor on the front panel, and within a 30 degree angle.
Precautions:
Additional notes on connecting antennas
• Keep antenna cables away from the main unit and other cables. | |
• | To assure optimum reception, pull the FM antenna so that it is |
fully extended and not coiled or hanging at the rear of the unit. | |
• | If reception with the supplied antenna is poor, see the Other |

•The remote control may not work if there is an obstacle between the remote control and the display unit, or if the remote control is not directed towards the remote sensor of the display unit at the correct angle.
•The remote control may not work properly if strong light such as direct sunlight or fluorescent light is shining onto the unit’s remote sensor.
•The remote control may not work properly when this unit is used near devices emitting infrared rays, or when remote controls of other devices which use infrared rays are used. Also, the use of this remote control may cause other devices to work improperly.
•When the operating range of the remote becomes too short, replace the batteries.
Remote control battery caution
Incorrect use of batteries may cause leakage or rupture.
Always be sure to follow these guidelines:
• Always insert batteries into the battery compartment |
correctly matching the positive ª and negative · |
polarities, as shown by the display inside the |
compartment. |
• Never mix new and used batteries. |
• Batteries of the same size may have different voltages, |
depending on brand. Do not mix different brands of |
batteries. |
• When disposing of used batteries, please comply with |
connections section in the main operating instructions for details |
on connecting outdoor antennas. |
Additional notes on speaker placement
If your listening room is of adequate size, place the speakers as shown in step 3 to achieve the optimum surround sound effect. If you are listening in a fairly small room and a typical surround speaker setup is not possible, see Home theater sound setup in the instruction manual and the Speaker Setup guide for information on the Front surround
When using the standard surround speaker setup as shown in step 3, please observe the following guidelines:
•Install the main front left and right speakers at an equal distance from the TV.
•For optimum effect, install the rear speakers slightly above ear level.
•Install the center speaker above or below the TV so that the sound of the center channel is localized at the TV screen.
Precautions:
• When installing the center speaker on top of the TV, be sure to |
secure it with tape or some other suitable means. Otherwise, the |
speaker may fall from the TV due to external shocks such as |
earthquakes, endangering those nearby or damaging the speaker. |
• Do not connect the supplied speakers with any other amplifier. |
This may result in malfunction or fire. |
• The front, center and surround speakers supplied with this |
system are magnetically shielded. However, depending on the |
installation location, color distortion may occur if the speaker is |

instruction's rules that apply in your country or area. |
• In order to prevent battery leakage, remove the |
batteries when not using the remote control for an |
extended period (one month or more). If leakage occurs, |
carefully wipe away any battery fluid inside the |
compartment, and replace the batteries with new ones. |
• Do not allow books or other objects to rest on top of |

causing faster exhaustion of the batteries. |
installed extremely close to the screen of a television set. If this |
happens case, turn the power switch of the television set OFF, |
and turn it ON after 15 to 30 minutes. If the problem persists, |
place the speaker system away from the television set. |
• The subwoofer is not magnetically shielded and so should not |
be placed near a TV or monitor. Since it is not magnetically |
shielded, do not place any magnetic storage media (such as floppy |
disks and tape or video cassettes) close to the subwoofer. |
• Do not fix the subwoofer and center speaker to the wall or |
ceiling; they could cause injury if they fell. |

2 Connect the speaker system.
Refer to Setting up your DVD/CD Receiver (the other part of this setup guide) to connect the speakers properly. Place them as shown in the diagram at far left for optimal surround sound.
The base of each surround speaker fits into the circular groove on the top of the front speakers as shown.
3 Secure the speaker wire.
After testing for the slack necessary to turn the speaker (see the following step), use the groove provided to secure the speaker wire as shown.
Leave 5 cm of slack from the speaker terminals so the upper (surround) speaker can turn freely.
4 Turn the surround speakers towards the closest wall, lining the arrows up for optimal Front Surround.
Turn each surround speaker so that the arrow at the base is lined up with the FRONT
SURROUND arrow on the front speaker. This is only necessary with the FrtMovie or FrtMusic modes. With ExtPower (Extra Power), line up the arrow with the EXTRA POWER arrow (the surround speakers should be in the same direction as the front speakers). See the operating instructions for more on the Front Surround modes.
Caution
• To prevent accidents, make sure the surround speaker is placed securely on top of the front speaker.
• Please don't attach the speakers to the wall or speaker stands for Front surround
