Sony HT-7000DH Operating Instructions Manual page 74

On placement
• Place tile receiver ill :t location with adequate
ventilation to prevent heat buildup and
prolong the life of the receiver.
• Do not place the receiver near heat sources,
or in a place subject to direct sunlight,
excessive dust, or mechanical shock.
• Do not place anything on top of the cabinet
that might block the ventilation holes and
cause malfunctions.
• Do not place the receiver near equipment
such as a television, VCR, or tape deck. (If
the receiver is being used in combination
with a television, VCR, or tape deck, and is
placed too close to that equipment, noise
may result, and picture quality may suffer.
This is especially likely when using an
indoor antenna. Therefore, we recommend
using an outdoor antenna.)
• Use caution when placing the receiver or
speakers on surfaces that have been specially
treated (with wax, oil, polish, etc.) as
staining or discoloration of the surface may
result.
On operation
Before connecting other components, be sure
to turn off and unplug the receiver.
If you encounter color
irregularity on a nearby TV
screen
Tile front and center speakers and the sub
woofer are magnetically shieMed to allow it to
be installed near a TV set. However, color
irregularities may still be observed on certain
types of TV sets. As the surround speakers are
not magnetically shieMed, we recommend that
you place the surround speakers slightly
further away from the TV set (page 14).
If color irregularity is
observed...
Turn off the TV set, then turn it on again after
15 to 30 minutes.
If color irregularity is observed
again...
Place tile speaker further away from the TV
set.
If howling occurs
Reposition the speakers or turn down the
volume on the receiver.
On cleaning
Clean the cabinet, panel, and controls with a
soft cloth slightly moistened with a miM
detergent solution. Do not use any type of
abrasive pad, scouring powder, or solvent,
such as alcohol or benzine.
If you have any questions or problems
concerning your receiver, please consult your
nearest Sony dealer.
