Connecting Your System; Cabinet Maintenance - Pioneer S-FCRW3100-k Operating Instructions Manual

CONNECTING YOUR SYSTEM

Important
Make sure all equipment is turned off before making any
connections.
• Correct wiring of your loudspeakers is essential for achieving
the best sound quality. Be careful to ensure proper polarity of
connection.
• If any of the bare speaker wire touches the back panel it may
cause the power to cut off as a safety measure.
Twist and pull off the protective shields on each wire.
Connect to the speaker terminals on the rear of the
receiver.
To connect, insert the colored wire into the matching positive
(colored) terminal and the other wire into the negative (black)
terminal as shown below.
Note that the color-coded tabs are as follows:
• Red : Front right (R)
• White : Front left (L)
• Green : Center speaker
• Purple : Subwoofer
• Grey : Surround right (R)
• Blue : Surround left (L)
Connect to the speaker terminals on the rear of the
speakers.
Match the colored wire with the color-coded label (above the tabs),
then insert the colored wire into the red (+) tab and the other wire
with the black (–) tab.

CABINET MAINTENANCE

Use a polishing cloth or dry cloth to wipe off dust and dirt.
When the cabinet is very dirty, clean with a soft cloth dipped in some
neutral cleanser diluted five or six times with water, and then wipe
again with a dry cloth. Do not use furniture wax or cleaners.
Never use thinners, benzine, insecticide sprays and other chemicals
on or near the cabinets, since these will corrode the surfaces.
WALL-MOUNTING THE FRONT, CENTER AND
SURROUND SPEAKER SYSTEM
Before mounting
• Remember that the speaker system is heavy and that its weight
could cause the screws to work loose, or the wall material to fail
to support it, resulting in the speaker falling. Make sure that the
wall you intend to mount the speakers on is strong enough to
support them. Do not mount on plywood or soft surface walls.
• Mounting screws are not supplied. Use screws suitable for the
wall material and support the weight of the speaker.
