If necessary, remove the vinyl covering from the ends of
the speaker wire and twist the wire core.
Press down and hold the lever on the speaker terminal.
Insert the wire core into the hole. Be sure to connect the
(+) to (+) and (-) to (-).
Release the lever. Pull gently on the wire to see that it's
connected securely.
Important: When connecting the speaker wire, make sure
you connect the positive (+) terminal on the TV 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.
