Do not connect the power cord until all other connections have been made.
NOTE
• Although the satellite speakers and the subwoofer are magnetically
shielded, the TV screen may appear mottled. In this case, keep
enough distance between the speakers and the TV.
• The speakers 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.
- 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. If this happens, move the speakers away from the TV.
• Place the satellite speakers on a flat and level surface.
• Be sure to place the subwoofer to the TV’s right. If you place the
subwoofer to the TV’s left, keep sufficient distance between them to
prevent the TV screen from appearing mottled.
• Distortion of picture may occur when connecting the TV via a
VCR, or to a TV with a built-in VCR.
• You need to set “MONITOR TYPE” in the PICTURE menu
correctly according to the aspect ratio of your TV. (See page 32.)
