Installation

• Install the System in a location with adequate ventilation to

prevent internal heat build-up in the System.

DO NOT install the System in a location near

heat sources, or in a place subject to direct

sunlight, excessive dust or vibration.

• Install in a place which is level, dry and neither too hot nor

too cold—between 5°C and 35°C.

• Leave sufficient distance between the System and the TV.

• Keep the speakers away from the TV to avoid interference

with the TV.

Power sources

• When unplugging the System from the wall outlet, always

pull on the plug, not the AC power cord.

DO NOT handle the AC power cord with

wet hands.

Moisture condensation

Moisture may condense in the lenses 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 to a warm

place.

Should this occur, the System may malfunction. In this case,

leave the System turned on for a few hours until the moisture

evaporates, unplug the AC power cord, then plug it in again.

Internal heat

• Make sure there is good ventilation around the System.

Poor ventilation could overheat and damage the System.

–A cooling fan is inside the System to prevent heat build-

up.

DO NOT block the ventilation openings or

holes. If they are blocked by a newspaper or

cloth, etc., the heat may not be able to get out.

Others

• Should any metallic object or liquid fall into the System,

unplug the AC power cord and consult your dealer before

operating any further.

DO NOT disassemble the System since there

are no user serviceable parts inside.

• If you are not going to operate the System for an extended

period of time, unplug the AC power cord from the wall

outlet.

If anything goes wrong, unplug the AC power cord and

consult your dealer.

Connections

Do not connect the AC power cord until all other

connections have been made.

Supplied accessories

• FM antenna (x1)

• AM loop antenna (x1)

• Composite video cord (x1)

• Remote control (x1)

• Batteries (x2)

• AC plug adapter (x1)

(not supplied for Australia and the Middle East.)

If any item is missing, consult your dealer immediately.

• Connect VIDEO OUT directly to the video input of your

TV. Connecting VIDEO OUT to a TV via a VCR may

interfere with your viewing when playing back a copy-

protected source. Connecting VIDEO OUT to an integrated

TV/VCR system may interfere with your viewing.

! Auxiliary equipment

• Disconnect the supplied FM antenna, and connect an

outdoor FM antenna using a 75 Ω wire with coaxial type

connector (IEC or DIN45325).

• Make sure the antenna conductors do not touch any other

terminals, connecting cords or the power cord. Also, keep

the antennas away from metallic parts of the System,

connecting cords, and the AC power cord. This could cause

poor reception.

• The front and center speakers and subwoofer(s) are

magnetically shielded to avoid color distortions on TVs.

However, if not installed properly, it may cause color

distortions. So, pay attention to the following when

installing the speakers.

@ Speakers

To connect the speaker cords

– When placing the speakers near a TV set, 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.

Some TVs may still be affected even though you have

followed the above instruction. If this happens, move the

speakers away from the TV.
