THINGS
TO KNOW
BEFORE CONNECTING
COMPONENTS
Protect Your Components
from Power Surges
•
Connect all components before plugging any power cords into the
wall outtet.
•
Always turn off the TV and other components
before you connect or
disconnect any cables.
Position Cables Correctly to Avoid Audio Hum or
Interference
•
Insert all cable plugs firmly into their
jacks.
•
Place the audioAfideo cables to the sides of the TV's back panel
instead of straight
down the middle
after you connect your
components.

Try not to coil any twin-lead
cables; keep them away from the audio/
video cables as much as possible.
•
Make sure all antennas and cables are properly grounded.

Protect Your Components
from Overheating

Do not block ventilation
holes in any of the components.
Arrange
the components
so that air can circulate freely,
•
Do not stack components,
•
Allow
adequate
ventilation
when placing your components
in a
stand.
•
Place an amplifier
on the top shelf of the stand so that heated air
rising from it will not flow
around other components.
