Select an area where sunlight or bright indoor illumination will not fall directly on the picture screen. Also, be sure that the location ...........
selected allows a free flow of air to and from the perforated back cover of the set.
To avoid cabinet warping, cabinet color changes, and increased chance of set failure, do not place the Projection Monitor where
temperatures can become excessively hot, for example, in direct sunlight or near a heating appliance, etc.

The major benefit of the ASPECT Projection Monitor is itslarge viewing screen. To see this large screen at its best, test various locations
in the room to find the optimum spot for viewing.
The best picture is seen by sitting directly in front of the Projection Monitor and about 10 to 18 feet from the screen. Picture brightness
decreases as the viewer moves to the left and right of the receiver. .......
During daylight hours, reflections from outside light may appear on the screen. If so, drapes or screens can be used to reduce the
reflection or the Projection Monitor can be located in a different section of the room.
If the Projection Monitor's audio output will be connected to a Hi-Fi system's external speakers, the best audio performance will be
obtained by placing the speakers equidistant from each side of the receiver cabinet and as close as possible to the height of the picture
screen center. For best stereo separation, place the external speakers at least four feet from the side of the Projection Monitor, place
the surround speakers to the side or behind the viewing area. Differences in room sizes and acoustical environments will require some
experimentation with speaker p_acement for best performance.

CAUTION: Magnetic fields, such as those of external speakers, may cause the picture to distort if they are placed too
close to the Projection Monitor. Move the magnetic field source away from the Projection Monitor until there is
no picture distortion.
