Precautions

Installation

• Install in a place which is level, dry and neither too hot nor
too cold—between 5°C and 35°C.

• Install the System in a location with adequate ventilation to
prevent internal heat buildup inside the System.

DO NOT install the System in a location near
heat sources, or in a place subject to direct
sunlight, excessive dust or vibration.

• Leave sufficient distance between the System and the TV.

• Keep the speakers away from the TV to avoid interference
with the TV.

Power sources

• When unplugging the System from the wall outlet, always
pull on the plug, not the AC power cord.

DO NOT handle the AC power cord with wet
hands.

Moisture condensation

Moisture may condense on the lenses inside the System in
the following cases:

• After starting to heat the room

• In a damp room

• If the System is brought directly from a cold to a warm
place

Should this occur, the System may malfunction. In this case,
leave the System turned on for a few hours until the moisture
evaporates, unplug the AC power cord, then plug it in again.
