Getting Started

About the remote control unit

q Push the lock lever in the

direction of the arrow and lift.

w Set two R6/AA batteries in the

battery compartment in the indicated direction.

e Put the rear cover back on.

Inserting the batteries

• Point the remote control unit at the remote sensor when operating it.

• The remote control unit can be used from a distance of up to about 23 feet / 7 meters, at a horizontal angle of up to 30° with respect to the sensor.

Operating range of the remote control unit

NOTE:

• The set may function improperly or the remote control unit may

not operate if the remote control sensor is exposed to direct sunlight, strong artiﬁcial light from an inverter type ﬂuorescent lamp or infrared light.

Cautions on handling

• Before turning the power switch on

Check once again that all connections are correct and that there are

no problems with the connection cables.

• Power is supplied to some of the circuitry even when the unit is

set to the standby mode. When traveling or leaving home for long periods of time, be sure to unplug the power supply cord from the power outlet.

Notes on batteries:

• Replace the batteries with new ones if the set does not operate

even when the remote control unit is operated close to the unit. (The supplied batteries are only for verifying operation.)

• When inserting the batteries, be sure to do so in the proper

direction, following the “q” and “w” marks in the battery compartment.

• To prevent damage or leakage of battery ﬂuid:

• Do not use a new battery together with an old one.

• Do not use two different types of batteries.

• Do not attempt to charge dry batteries.

• Do not short-circuit, disassemble, heat or dispose of batteries in

ﬂames.

• If the battery ﬂuid should leak, carefully wipe the ﬂuid off the

inside of the battery compartment and insert new batteries.

• Remove the batteries from the remote control unit if it will not be

in use for long periods.

• About condensation

If there is a major difference in temperature between the inside of

the unit and the surroundings, condensation (dew) may form on the operating parts inside the unit, causing the unit not to operate properly.

If this happens, let the unit sit for an hour or two with the power

turned off and wait until there is little difference in temperature before using the unit.

• Cautions on using mobile phones

Using a mobile phone near this unit may result in noise. If so, move

the mobile phone away from this unit when it is in use.

• Moving the unit

Turn off the power and unplug the power cord from the power

outlet.

Next, disconnect the connection cables to other system units before

moving the unit.

• Note that the illustrations in these instructions may differ from the

actual unit for explanation purposes.

Features of the DHT-FS3 Flow of Preparations

Sound ﬁelds created through DENON’s unique X-

SPACE SURROUND algorithm analysis:

The DHT-FS3 is equipped with DENON’s unique X-SPACE

SURROUND algorithm analysis technology making it possible to achieve surround effects with plenty of presence using just two speaker systems, a front speaker unit and a subwoofer. This enables coverage of a wide listening area and makes for great freedom in selecting where to install the units.

Surround sound can be achieved with the minimum number

of speakers, so there is little interference between speakers, resulting in a natural sound. Fine equalization processing to bring out the best of the unit’s performance makes it possible to recreate everything from the most delicate details of music to powerful movie scenes.

An abundance of surround play modes:

The DHT-FS3 is equipped for both Dolby Digital, the standard

DVD audio format and the optional DTS format. A wide range of surround sources, from DVDs and digital broadcasts to movies, music, sports and variety programs, can be enjoyed with a strong sense of being there.

The DHT-FS3 also includes a Dolby Pro Logic g decoder for playing

stereo sources in surround, and it is compatible with Dolby Headphoneb, which is great for playing in the surround mode late at night, so you can enjoy surround playback with a wide variety of sources.

Installation

About front speaker unit installation

Select one of the two ways of installing the speaker unit.

Mount the feet in the screw holes in the unit’s bottom panel.

• Two types of feet (

0.08 ft / 25 mm or 0.11 ft / 35 mm) are included. Select the type best suited for the

place of installation.

Use the included screws to securely fasten the DHT-FS3 to the two included wall mount ﬁttings.

Horizontally

Mounting on a wall

• When using screw type feet, the base of ﬂat TV can be placed in the spaces on the bottom of the DHTFS3.

b Depending on the TV’s

shape, it may not be possible to install as shown in the picture.

b Be careful that the DHT-

FS3 does not obstruct the TV’s remote control sensor.

Vertical installation

NOTE:

• Be sure to mount the same type of feet in all four holes so that the unit remains level.

CAUTION:

• For safety, do not place any objects on top of or lean any objects against the DHT-FS3.

• To ensure safety, have a specialist mount the unit on the wall.

• Be sure to fasten the connection cable to the wall to prevent getting your hands or feet caught, causing the DHT-FS3 to fall.

• Be sure to check for safety directly after mounting the unit on the wall. Afterwards, inspect periodically to be sure there is no possibility the unit will fall. Note that DENON will accept no responsibility whatsoever for accidents caused by improper selection of the place of installation or poor installation.

NOTE:

• If there is a magnet or an object generating magnetism nearby, interaction with the DHTFS3 could cause color blotching on the TV.

ENGLISH

Optimum installation layout

The DHT-FS3 can reproduce a realistic 5.1-channel surround sound for enhanced sense of presence using just the front speaker unit and the subwoofer.

Ideal layout examples

Installation tips

Installing as shown below provides a better surround effect.

• Listen from a distance of at least 1 meter from the front speaker unit.

• Keep the front speaker unit away from the left and right walls.

• When mounting in a TV rack, use with the door opens.

Connecting the front speaker unit and subwoofer

Use the exclusive connection cable to connect.

b To disconnect the

plug, press down on the lock lever and pull.

Lock lever

<Close-up>

Changing the speaker connection cable

The included connection cable can be replaced, for example if you want a longer cable.

q Pressing the release button on the opposite side

from lock lever, pull the cable out of the plug.

w Peel off the sheathing from the tip of the new

cable and twist tightly so that the tip is not frayed.

e Pressing the release button, insert the cores into

the plug, matching the cable’s + and – polarities with the + and – sides on the plug.

r Release the release button and gently pull on

the cable to check that it is secure.

NOTE:

• Do not place any heavy objects (TV, etc.) on top of the DHT-FS3.

• The size of the room, the distance between the DHT-FS3 and the listening position, etc., can be set using the “ROOM” option in the “Detailed settings” (vpage 11).

NOTE:

• Be sure to insert the connection cable’s plug fully to the hilt. Incomplete connections will cause noise or operating problems.
