Connecting up

•The front, center and surround speakers supplied with this system are magnetically shielded. However, placing them extremely close to a television may result in color distortion on the screen. If this happens, move the speakers a little further away and switch off the television for 15–30 minutes.

•The subwoofer is not magnetically shielded and so should not be placed near a TV or monitor.

Wall-mounting the surround speaker system

Before mounting

•Remember that the speaker system is heavy and that its weight could cause the wood 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 that are suitable for the wall material and that will support the weight of the speaker.

3–5 mm

10 mm

Wood screw

Protrusion: 5-7mm

•If you are unsure of the qualities and strength of the walls, consult a professional for advice.

•Pioneer is not responsible for any accidents or damage that result from improper installation.

Connecting to your TV

This system has three different kinds of video output that you can use to connect up your TV. Check the available inputs on your TV to see which you can use.

•Do not connect a VCR between this system and your TV as DVD playback will be affected.
