Notes on Operations  
Installation  
Moisture Condensation  
• Install the System in a location with adequate  
ventilation to prevent internal heat buildup in the  
System.  
• DO NOT install the System in a location near  
heat sources, or in a place subjected to direct  
sunlight, excessive dust or vibration.  
• Install the System in a place which is level, dry  
and neither too hot nor too cold—between 5°C  
and 35°C.  
Moisture may condense inside the lens on the  
System in the following cases:  
• After starting to heat the room  
• In a damp room  
• If the System is brought directly from a cold  
place to warm place.  
Should this occur, the System may malfunction. In  
this case, leave the System turned on for a few  
hours before use.  
• Leave sufficient distance between the System  
and the TV.  
• Keep the speakers away from the TV to avoid  
Listener's Etiquette  
interference with the TV.  
• When using the headphones, keep the volume  
at a moderate level to prevent over-stimulating  
your ears.  
• When enjoying sound from the speakers, adjust  
the volume to a suitable level to avoid disturbing  
your neighbors.  
Especially at night, close the windows or use the  
headphones even though you listen to sound at  
a low volume.  
Notes on Handling  
Important cautions  
Power cord  
• Do not handle the power cord with wet hands.  
• A small amount of power is always consumed while  
the power cord is connected to the wall outlet.  
• When unplugging the power cord from the wall  
outlet, always grasp the plug, not the power cord.  
About CDs/CD-Rs/CD-RWs  
To prevent malfunctions of the System  
• There are no user-serviceable parts inside. If  
anything goes wrong, unplug the power cord and  
consult your dealer.

– Do not play back any CD-R/CD-RW  
recorded in a format other than audio CD  
or MP3 format; otherwise, the speakers or  
other parts may be damaged by sudden  
loud volume.  
• The System may not play back some discs  
or files due to their characteristics or  
recording conditions.

CAUTION  
NOTE  
• Improper speaker cord connection spoils the stereo  
effect and sound quality.  
• Do not short-circuit the  
and  
speaker  
terminals. Otherwise it may damage the System.  
• Do not connect other speakers together with the  
supplied speakers. The change in impedance  
may damage the System.  
• The impedance of speakers connected to the  
System must be within the range of 4 to 16 .  
• A cooling fan is built into the main unit. The internal  
cooling fan automatically rotates to dissipate  
generated heat. To ensure sufficient cooling, leave  
a space of at least 1 cm between the main unit and  
the speakers or other objects.  
• The supplied speakers are not magnetically  
shielded. Keep enough distance between the  
speakers and TV so that they do not cause color  
irregularity on the TV.
