Notes on speaker use
You can damage your speakers and shorten their
useful life if you play sound at high levels over
extended periods.
Reduce the volume in the following cases to avoid
damage:
– When playing distorted sound.
– When the speakers are reverberating due to a
record player, noise from FM broadcasts, or
continuous signals from an oscillator, test disc, or
electronic instrument.
– When adjusting the sound quality.
– When turning the unit on or off.
If irregular coloring occurs on your television
The front and center speakers are designed to be used
close to a television, but the picture may be affected with
some televisions and setup combinations.
If this occurs, turn the television off for about
30 minutes.
The demagnetizing function of the television should
correct the problem. If it persists, move the speakers
further away from the television.
Caution
The main unit and supplied speakers are to be
used only as indicated in this setup. Failure to
do so may lead to damage to the amplifier and/or
the speakers, and may result in the risk of fire.
Consult a qualified service person if damage has
occurred or if you experience a sudden change
in performance.
Do not attempt to attach these speakers to walls
using methods other than those described in
this manual.
