CONNECTING YOUR SYSTEM

Important

Make sure all equipment is turned off before making any connections.

Correct wiring of your loudspeakers is essential for achieving the best sound quality. Be careful to ensure proper polarity of connection.

If any of the bare speaker wire touches the back panel it may cause the power to cut off as a safety measure.

Twist and pull off the protective shields on each wire.

Connect to the speaker terminals on the rear of the receiver.

To connect, insert the colored wire into the matching positive (colored) terminal and the other wire into the negative (black) terminal as shown below.

Note that the color-coded tabs are as follows:

Red : Front right (R)

White : Front left (L)

Green : Center speaker

Purple : Subwoofer

Grey : Surround right (R)

Blue : Surround left (L)

Colored marker

Connect to the speaker terminals on the rear of the speakers.

Match the colored wire with the color-coded label (above the tabs), then insert the colored wire into the red (+) tab and the other wire with the black (–) tab.

CABINET MAINTENANCE

Use a polishing cloth or dry cloth to wipe off dust and dirt.

When the cabinet is very dirty, clean with a soft cloth dipped in some neutral cleanser diluted five or six times with water, and then wipe again with a dry cloth. Do not use furniture wax or cleaners.

Never use thinners, benzine, insecticide sprays and other chemicals on or near the cabinets, since these will corrode the surfaces.

WALL-MOUNTING THE FRONT, CENTER AND SURROUND SPEAKER SYSTEM

Before mounting

Remember that the speaker system is heavy and that its weight could cause the screws to work loose, or the wall material to fail to support it, resulting in the speaker falling. Make sure that the wall you intend to mount the speakers on is strong enough to support them. Do not mount on plywood or soft surface walls.

Mounting screws are not supplied. Use screws suitable for the wall material and support the weight of the speaker.
