Precautions
•Remove the protective cover after you have connected the speaker and placed it in its final position.
•When listening at large volumes, we recommend keeping the sound at a level where it does not distort.
•To prevent damage to the speaker unit, be sure to attatch the supplied protective cover when moving the speaker or placing it in storage.
on safety
•Do not attempt to open the enclosure or modify the speaker unit.
•Before operating the speaker, be sure that the operating voltage of your speaker is identical with that of your local power supply.
•Unplug the speaker from the wall outlet if it is not to be used for an extended period of time. To disconnect the cord, pull the cord by grasping the plug. Never pull the cord itself.
•Should any liquid or solid object fall into the speaker, unplug the speaker and have the speaker checked by qualified personnel before operating it any further.
•AC power cord must be changed only at the qualified service shop.
When turning on or off other equipment
Lower the volume of the speaker to minimum.
In case color irregularity is observed on the nearby TV screen
With the magnetically shielded type of the speaker system, the speakers can be installed near a TV set. However, color irregularity may still be observed on the TV screen depending on the type of your TV set.
If color irregularity is observed...
Turn off the TV set once, then turn it on after 15 to 30 minutes.
If color irregularity is observed again...
Place the speakers further apart from the TV set.
If it still persists...
Check that there is no other source of magnetism* near the TV set. Any other source of magnetism can cause color irregularity due to an interaction with the speaker.
*Examples of sources of magnetism: Rack, magnets attached to secure the doors of the TV stand, health tools, magnets used with a toy, etc.
On installation
•Do not install the speaker near heat sources such as radiators or air ducts, or in a place subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust, mechanical vibration or shock.
•Good ventilation is essential to prevent internal heat buildup in the speaker. Place the speaker in a location with adequate air circulation. Do not place the speaker on a soft surface or too close to a wall as this may obstruct the ventilation hole on the back.
On cleaning the cabinet
Clean the cabinet with a soft cloth lightly moistened with water. Do not use any type of abrasive pad, scouring powder or solvent such as alcohol or benzine.
If you have any questions or problems concerning your speaker that is not covered in this manual, please consult your nearest Sony dealer.
