When inserting the batteries, make sure not to damage
the springs on the battery’s (–) terminals. This can cause
batteries to leak or overheat.

Automatically setting up for surround sound (MCACC)
The Auto Multi-Channel Acoustic Calibration (MCACC) setup
uses the supplied setup microphone to measure and analyze
the test tone that is outputted by the speakers. This setup
enables automatic high precision measuring and settings;
utilizing it will create an optimum user listening environment.
Important
Measure in a quiet environment.
If you have a tripod, use it to place the microphone so
that it’s about ear level at your normal listening position.
Otherwise, place the microphone at ear level using a table
or a chair.
Accurate measurements may not be possible if there are
obstacles between the speakers and the listening position
(microphone).
When measuring, step away from the listening position,
and operate using the remote control from the external
side of all the speakers.
