Page 9: Installation
0. Installation Place the amplifier on a hard and flat surface. The ventilation holes should not be covered. There has to be at least 5 cm (2 inches) free air on top of the amplifier. To ensure long and trouble free operation we recommend: - Do not expose the amplifier to direct sunlight. -

3. Zone 2 With zone 2 it is possible to redirect the sound to other audio systems, e.g. placed in kitchen or bedrooms. The zone 2 has separate volume control and input selector. Adjustments for zone 2 are achieved by holding down the same input knob as currently selected. - Page 12 (see section 5). However, at Thule Audio’s experience the delay could be further increased about 0 – 3 milliseconds in the surround speakers from the above calculations, to obtain a more realistic surround sound image.
