Note on Connection
Installation of speakers and positioning of TV
1. If a speaker is installed near a TV, color irregularities
may be observed on the TV screen. To avoid this, install the speakers apart from a TV.
2. Color irregularities on the TV screen may also be pro-
duced depending on the method how the speakers are
installed. When color irregularities are observed after
the speaker installation, first turn the TV off, wait for 15
Preparation section
to 30 minutes and turn it on again: The interference
may be improved by the self-demagnetizing function of
the TV. If the color irregularities still remain, install the
speakers more apart from the TV.
3. Due to induction by the electromagnetic waves pro-
duced by a TV, the speakers may produce sound
even when the stereo unit is turned off. In this case
also, install the speakers more apart from the TV.
CAUTION (For the U.S.A. and Canada)
Be sure to adhere followings. Or proper ventilation
will be blocked causing damage or fire hazard.
