DVD/Video CD/CD changer
Stereo cassette deck
Note
Do not put the DVD/Video CD/CD changer on the top of the tuner/ampli-
fier. Heat can damage your discs.
Caution
Use the speakers only with the recommended system.
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 meth-
ods other than those described in this manual.
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 receiving howling from a microphone (for
Australia and N.Z.) or record player, noise from FM broadcasts, or
continuous signals from an oscillator, test disc, or electronic in-
strument.
When adjusting the sound quality.
When turning the unit on or off.
If irregular colouring occurs on your television
These speakers are designed to be used close to a television, but the
picture may be affected with some televisions and set-up combinations.
If this occurs, turn the television off for about 30 minutes.
The television's demagnetizing function should correct the problem.
If it persists, move the speakers further away from the television.
