Selecting a location for your CineMate
TM
speaker system
Use the following guidelines to choose locations and positions for the speakers and the
Interface module. While these guidelines are offered to ensure the best system performance,
you may find other placement variations that are more convenient and provide the sound you
enjoy.
Note: Keep in mind that the Acoustimass
®
module is the only part of this system that connects
to a power outlet.
Positioning the Interface module
The Interface module receives commands from the universal remote control and provides audio
input connections for the CineMate
TM
speaker system. The remote control commands allow you
to turn the speakers on, change the volume, and mute or turn off the speaker system.
• Position the Interface module on a flat surface near the TV and other home theater equipment
(Figure 2). The remote should have a clear line of sight to the Interface module, the TV, and
any other equipment it will control.
• Keep the Interface module within 15 feet (4.6 meters) of the Acoustimass module, to which it
connects.
• If you position the
Interface
module on a shelf, make sure the front edge of the module is
flush with the front edge of the shelf. If on a high shelf, make sure the front edge of the
module extends slightly past the front of the shelf, so the shelf does not block signals from
the remote control.
• Do not position the
Interface
module in direct sunlight.
• Peel the protective film off the lens on the front of the
Interface
module.
CAUTION: When positioning the Interface module, avoid blocking any ventilation openings on
the TV or other electronic equipment.
