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.
