several feet off the ground.
Connecting Speakers to the TV
1. If necessary, remove the vinyl covering from the ends of the speaker
wire and twist the wire core.
2. Press down and hold the lever on the speaker terminal.
3. Insert the wire core into the hole. Be sure to connect the (+) to (+)
and (-) to (-).
4. Release the lever. Pull gently on the wire to see that it's connected
securely.
Connecting a Subwoofer
To connect a subwoofer to the TV:
• Connect the subwoofer's audio input to the left (I_/MONO)
HI-FI OUT jack.
IMPORTANT
When connecting the speaker wire,
make sure you connect the positive
(+) terminal on theTV to the positive
(+) terminal on the speaker. One side
of the speaker wire is usually marked
with a white stripe to help you match
up the terminals correctly. If the (+)
and (-) terminals are not matched
properly, the speakers will not be "in
phase," causing reduction in bass
frequencies.
Do not allow the wire core to touch
other wires or terminals. Damage to
components could result if the cores
of two wires touch each other.
