Before using this System  
Precautions  
Notes on installing and using the speakers  
• Place the speakers and subwoofer on a flat and level  
surface.  
• The speakers are magnetically shielded to avoid color  
distortions on TVs. If the color on a TV is distorted,  
perform the following procedure:  
– Turn off the TV’s main power switch or unplug it  
before installing the speakers. Then wait at least  
30 minutes before turning on the TV’s main power  
switch again.  
There are no user-serviceable parts inside. If anything  
goes wrong, unplug the power cord and consult your  
dealer.  
Notes on installing the System  
• Select a location which is level, dry and neither too hot nor  
too cold between 5°C and 35°C.  
• Do not install the System in a location subject to  
vibrations.  
• Do not put heavy objects on the System.  
Some TVs may still be affected even though you have  
followed the above procedure. If this happens, move the  
speakers away from the TV.  
Avoid moisture, water, dust, and high  
temperatures  
• Do not install the System in moist or dusty locations.  
• If water gets inside the System, turn off the power and  
remove the plug from the wall outlet, then consult your  
dealer. Using the System in this state may cause a fire or  
electrical shock.  
• The subwoofer is not magnetically shielded. To avoid  
color distortion, do not place it near the TV or monitor.  
• When moving the speakers and subwoofer, do not pull the  
speaker cords. Doing so may cause the speakers and/or  
subwoofer to fall over, causing damage or injury.  
• When installing the speakers on a wall, be sure to have  
them installed by qualified personnel. DO NOT install the  
speakers on a wall by yourself.  
• Do not expose the System to direct sunlight or place it near  
a heating device.  
To prevent malfunctions or damage to the System  
• Do not insert any metallic objects, such as wires, hairpins,  
coins, etc. into the System.  
• Do not lean against the speakers, as they could fall down  
or break, possibly causing an injury. Be especially careful  
that children do not lean against them.  
• Do not block the vents.  
About the adjustment of volume  
Notes on the power cord  
Always set the volume to the minimum level before starting  
any source. If the volume is set at a high level, the sudden  
blast of sound could permanently damage your hearing and/  
or blow out the speakers.  
• When you are away on travel or otherwise for an extended  
period of time, remove the plug from the wall outlet. A  
small amount of power is always consumed while the  
power cord is connected to the wall outlet.  
• When unplugging the System from the wall outlet, always  
pull the plug, not the power cord.  
• Disconnect the power cord before cleaning or moving the  
System.  
• Do not modify, twist or pull the power cord, or put  
anything heavy on it. Doing so may cause fire, electric  
shock, or other accidents.  
To clean the System  
• Use a soft cloth. Follow the relevant instructions on the  
use of chemically-coated cloths.  
• If the System is heavily stained, apply a small amount of  
water or neutral detergent to the cloth and wipe clean, then  
wipe with a dry cloth.  
• Do not use benzene, thinner or other organic solvents and  
disinfectants. These may cause deformation or  
discoloring.  
About copyright laws  
Observe the copyright laws in your country before recording  
from original sources. Recording of copyrighted material  
may infringe copyright laws.  
About the copyguard system  
The discs are protected by the copyguard system. When  
connecting the System to a TV via a VCR, or to a TV with a  
built-in VCR, the copyguard system activates and distortion  
of the picture may occur.
