Notes on speaker use
• Use only supplied speakers
Using other speakers can damage the unit, and sound quality will be
negatively affected.
oYou 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.
• If irregular coloring occurs on your TV
The front and center speakers are 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 demagnetizing function of the TV should correct the problem. If it
persists, move the speakers further away from the TV.
• Caution
Do not touch the front netted area of the speakers. Hold by the sides.
e.g., Center speaker
