CAUTION: To prevent electric shock,
do not use this (polarized) plug with
an extension cord, receptacle or other outlet
unless the blades can be fully inserted to
prevent blade exposure.
T
he lightning flash with arrowhead symbol,

alert the user to the presence of uninsulated
“dangerous voltage” within the product’s
e
nclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute
a
risk of electric shock to persons.
13. Unplug this apparatus during
l
ightning storms or when unused for
long periods of time.
14. Refer all servicing to qualified
service personnel. Servicing is
required when the apparatus has
b
een damaged in any way, such
as power-supply cord or plug is
damaged, liquid has been spilled
or objects have fallen into the
apparatus, the apparatus has been
exposed to rain or moisture, does
not operate normally, or has been

7. Do not block any ventilation
openings. Install in accordance with
the manufacturer’s instructions.
8. Do not install near any heat
sources such as radiators, heat
registers, stoves or other apparatus
(including amplifiers) that produce
heat.
9. Do not defeat the safety purpose
of the polarized or grounding-type
plug. A polarized plug has two
blades with one wider than the
other. A grounding-type plug has
two blades and a third grounding
prong. The wide blade or the third
prong are provided for your safety.
If the provided plug does not fit into
your outlet, consult an electrician

sources, refer to the operating
instructions.
17. If an outside antenna or cable
system is connected to the product,
be sure the antenna or cable system is grounded so as to provide
some protection against voltage
surges and built-up static charges.
Article 810 of the National
Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70,
provides information with regard to
proper grounding of the mast and
supporting structure, grounding of
the lead-in wire to an antenna
discharge unit, size of grounding
conductors, location of antennadischarge unit, connection to
grounding electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode.
See Figure A.

Example of Antenna Grounding as per
National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA 70
18. An outside antenna system
s
hould not be located in the vicinity
of overhead power lines or other
electric light or power circuits, or
where it can fall into such power
lines or circuits. When installing an
o
utside antenna system, extreme
care should be taken to keep from
touching such power lines or circuits,
as contact with them might be fatal.
19. Do not overload wall outlets,
extension cords, or integral
convenience receptacles, as this
can result in a risk of fire or
electric shock.
20. Never push objects of any kind
into this product through openings,
as they may touch dangerous voltage points or short-out parts, which
could result in a fire or electric
shock. Never spill liquid of any kind
on the product.

or repairs to this product, ask the
service technician to perform safety
checks to determine that the product is in proper operating condition.
25. The product should be mounted
to a wall or ceiling only as recommended by the manufacturer.

SPEAKER PLACEMENT

FRONT
SPEAKERS
SURROUND SPEAKERS
Alternate placement for surround speakers when only 5.1 channels are used; required placement for surround back
speakers in 7.1-channel systems.
The front speakers should be
placed the same distance
from each other as they are
from the listening position.
The CSB5 speakers should
be placed at about the same
height from the floor as the
listeners’ ears will be, or
they may be angled toward
the listeners.
The center channel speaker
should be placed slightly
behind the front left and right
speakers, and no more than
2 feet (0.6m) above or below
the tweeters of the left and
right speakers. It is often
convenient to set the center
speaker on top of the television set, as shown in the
drawing.
The JBL Cinema Sound
speaker system may be used
in 5.1-,
6.1- or 7.1-channel
applications. In 5.1-channel
applications, two

possible, they may be placed

tions, two of the surround
speakers should be placed in
the side positions, and a single surround back speaker
should be placed against the
wall behind the listening
position. In 7.1-channel
applications, place
surround speakers

surround back speakers
against the rear wall.

In Dolby
Digital and DTS
systems, it is best to aim all
of the speakers (except the
subwoofer) toward the lis-

above about ear-level height.
In systems where only analog surround processing
(such as Dolby Pro Logic
is available, it may be preferable to aim the speakers
straight out from the wall to
obtain a more diffuse sound.
The low-frequency material
reproduced by the subwoofer
is mostly omnidirectional,
and this speaker may be
placed in a convenient location in the room. However,
bass reproduction will be
maximized when the subwoofer is placed in a corner
along the same wall as the
front speakers. Experiment
with subwoofer placement
by temporarily placing the
subwoofer in the listening
position and moving around
the room until the bass
reproduction is best. Place the
subwoofer in that location.
