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. We recommend a minimum of 18 gauge for runs up to 25 feet, and thicker for longer runs.
Most loudspeaker cable is coded to ease this task. Typically the ribbed or striped side is connected to the positive (red) terminal. Make sure that the amplifier positive (red) terminal is connected to the loudspeaker positive (red) terminal. Strip off ½” of the insulation from the ends of the cable, twist the bare strands and insert into the binding posts. Take care that no stray strands of wire short across between the terminals.

INSTALLATION PRECAUTIONS
•Do not install this speaker system near a stove or other heating appliance, or put it in a place exposed to the sun. Such locations may cause the cabinet to change color and the speaker system to break down.
•Remember that the
Pioneer will not be responsible for any accidents or damage that may result from improper installation.
If the speaker system is installed too close to the screen of a television set, color distortion may occur.
If this happens, turn off the power switch of the television set, and turn it on after 15 to 30 minutes. If the problem persists, place the speaker system away from the television set.
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 fi ve or six times with water, and then wipe again with a dry cloth. Do not use furniture wax or cleaners.
•Never use thinner, benzine, insecticide sprays and other chemicals on or near the cabinets, since these will corrode the surfaces.
