SETTING LOUDSPEAKER SIZES IN HOME THEATRE SYSTEMS
Many digital AV Processors require you to specify the size of speakers in all channels.
These are usually ‘Large’ or ‘Small’.
Always choose 'Small' for the Surround channels and Centre channel whether you are using a subwoofer or not.
If you are not using a subwoofer: Set the Front Speakers to ‘Large’. Set the ‘Subwoofer’ option on the processor to ‘Off ’ or ‘No’. The Front channels will receive all the system bass.
If you are using a subwoofer: When set to ‘Small’ all the system bass will go into the subwoofer. If you choose ‘Large’ the Front channel bass will be sent to the Front speakers. Bookshelf speakers should be set to ‘Small’, large floor standing units may be set to ‘Large’.
Refer to your A/V processor manual for details on setting up your Home Theatre system.

Care and Maintenance
Little maintenance is required. The cabinets can be occasionally wiped with a damp (not wet) cloth. Spray polish, if used, should be applied sparingly - spray the polish onto a cloth and then apply it to the speaker. NEVER spray the grille cloth or the speaker drive units. To clean the grilles, remove them first before gently brushing with a soft brush. Never use solvent cleaners, minor stains are best removed with soap and lukewarm water.

Please read the following notes carefully. They will help you to install your
loudspeaker correctly and safely.
!Switch off the amplifier and all sources before making connections to your sound system. When you switch on the system or change sources, set the volume control to minimum and turn up the level gradually.
!The position of your Volume Control is NOT a reliable guide as to the maximum capabilities of your sound system. Playing the system with extreme settings of volume and/or tone controls may damage the amplifier and loudspeaker and your hearing.
!Do not connect loudspeaker terminals to the mains supply.
!Ensure that your loudspeakers are correctly wired and are in phase.
!Do not subject your loudspeakers to excessive cold, heat or sunlight.
!WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or electrical shock do not expose this product to rain or moisture. The product must not be exposed to dripping and splashing and no object filled with liquids - such as a vase of flowers - should be placed on the product.
!No naked flame sources - such as candles - must be placed on the product.
!Do not place heavy objects on top of loudspeaker cabinets. If you play the loudspeakers with the grilles removed be careful to protect the drive units from children and pets.
!Do not use makeshift stands. Always fit a manufacturer's approved stand using the instructions and the fixings provided. Your dealer will advise you.
!Do not attempt to dismantle the loudspeaker. There are no user serviceable parts inside and you will invalidate the warranty.
!The Centre Channel loudspeaker is screened and may safely be operated close to a TV set.
