NOTE
Although the satellite speakers and the powered 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, they 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 powered subwoofer to the TV’s right. If you place
the powered subwoofer to the TV’s left, keep sufficient distance
between them to prevent the TV screen from appearing mottled.
Do not locate the wireless receiver unit too close to the center unit.
Doing so may cause noise over the radio reception.
Distortion of picture may occur when connecting to 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. (A pg. 38)
7 To connect a TV equipped with the component video
input jacks
NOTE
If your TV supports progressive video input, you can enjoy a high
quality picture by setting the progressive scan mode to active.
(A pg. 19)
If the component video input jacks of your TV are of the BNC type,
use a plug adapter (not supplied) to convert the pin plugs to BNC
plugs.
The component video signals can be output only when you select
“DVD” as the source to play. (A pg. 18)
7 To connect a TV with the SCART connector
* Some TV’s SCART connectors output audio signal. In such a
case, you can enjoy the TV sound through this system.
NOTE
No sound signal comes out from “AV” (SCART) connector.
Select the appropriate scan mode according to your TV. See
“Changing the scan mode” (A pg. 19).
