Connections
• Place the satellite speakers on a flat and level surface.
• The front and center 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.
• The surround speakers and the subwoofer are not magnetically
shielded.
If it is located nearby the TV or monitor, it will probably cause
color distortion on the screen. To avoid this, do not place the
speaker nearby the TV or monitor.
• 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.)
* 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 video signal according to your TV. (See page
15.)
Make sure that all other connections have been completed.
CAUTION
• Disconnect the power cord before cleaning or moving the system.
• Do not pull on the power cord to unplug the cord. When unplugging
the cord, always grasp and pull the plug so as not to damage the cord.
NOTE
• Preset settings, such as preset stations and surround mode adjustment,
may be erased in a few days in the following cases;
• If you unplug the power cord of the center unit.
• If a power failure occurs.
