Caution
• With other audio-video components, connect the subwoofer’s
LINE INPUT to the subwoofer pre out jack of your equipment.
Never plug any kind of musical instrument to the subwoofer.
Note
• The Auto Standby function turns the subwoofer on when the
input signal exceeds a certain level. If the Auto Standby
function does not work reliably, try slightly increasing or
decreasing the subwoofer output level on your receiver.
When there’s no input signal for a while, the SKW-980/SKW-
938 automatically enters Standby mode.
• If the Standby/On indicator lights (both red and blue LEDs)
several seconds or minutes after the sound output stopped,
this means that the amp protection circuit has been activated.
In this case, set the OUTPUT LEVEL control to the center
position, and disconnect the power cord from the AC outlet.
Wait at least 10 minutes, and then reconnect the power cord.
If that doesn’t solve the issue, contact your Onkyo dealer.
Using the Cork Stoppers for a More Stable
Platform
We recommend using the supplied cork stoppers to achieve
the best possible sound from your speakers. The cork
stoppers prevent the speakers from moving, providing a
more stable platform.

Attaching and detaching the speaker grilles
The front, center, surround and surround back speakers
have detachable grilles.

Setting the Subwoofer Level
Make sure the SKW-980/SKW-938

the “THX POSITION”.
You can then adjust the level as needed.
