Getting Started
How you set up your speakers can affect the bass and the
sound field. Note the following points:
≥
Place speakers on flat secure bases.
≥
Placing speakers too close to floors, walls, and
corners can result in excessive bass. Cover walls and
windows with thick curtains.
[Note]
Keep your speakers at least 10 mm away from the system
for proper ventilation.
Setup example
Place the front, center, and surround speakers at
approximately the same distance from the seating position.
Using “Auto speaker setup” (
B
11) is a convenient way to
get the ideal surround sound from your speakers when you
are unable to place them. The angles in the diagram are
approximate.
Caution
Do not touch the front netted area of the speakers. Hold
by the sides.
e.g. Center speaker
≥
Remove the digital transmitter cover before installing
any optional Panasonic wireless accessory.
≥
Replace the cover when the digital transmitter is not in use.
If irregular colouring occurs on your TV
The center speaker is designed to be used close to a
TV, but the picture may be affected with some TVs and
setup combinations.
If this occurs, turn the TV off for about 30 minutes.
The demagnetising function of the TV should correct the
problem. If it persists, move the speakers further away
from the TV.
Notes on speaker use
≥
Use only supplied speakers
Using other speakers can damage the unit, and sound quality will
be negatively affected.
≥
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.

To allow for proper ventilation and
to maintain good airflow around
this unit, position it with at least

floor or a sturdy shelf
so that it will not
cause vibration.
Leave about 30 cm
from the TV.
