Place the appliance at least 10 cm away from the walls. Do not use the appliance on a bed, sofa, rug or similar surface that may block the ventilation openings. This appliance should not be placed in a built-in installation such as a bookcase or rack unless proper ventilation is provided or the manufacturer’s instructions have been adhered to.
5. Water and moisture – The appliance should not be used near water – for example, near a bathtub, washbowl, kitchen sink, laundry tub, in a wet basement, or near a swimming pool, etc.
6. Temperature – The appliance may not function properly if used at ex­tremely low, or freezing temperatures. The ideal ambient temperature is above +5°C (41°F).
7. Heat – The appliance should be situated away from heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other appliances (including amplifiers) that produce heat.
8. Electric shock – Care should be taken so that objects do not fall and liquid is not spilled into the enclosure through openings. If a metal object, such as a hair-pin or a needle, comes into contact with the inside of this appliance, a dangerous electric shock may result. For families with children. Never permit children to put anything, especially metal, inside this appli­ance.
9. Enclosure removal – Never remove the enclosure. If the internal parts are touched accidentally, a serious electric shock might occur.
10. Cleaning – Unplug this appliance from the wall outlet before cleaning. Do not use volatile solvents such as alcohol, paint thinner, gasoline, or benzine, etc. to clean the cabinet. Use a clean dry cloth.
11. Lightning For added protection for this appliance during a lightning storm, or when it is left unattended and unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the wall outlet and disconnect the antenna or cable system. This will prevent damage to the appliance due to lightning and power-line surges.

Location Precautions
Interference with AM Reception
The subwoofer utilizes digital circuitry to provide efficient signal amplification. Placing the subwoofer too close to your AM receiver (AM tuner) may therefore cause interference with AM reception. If you notice noise in your AM reception, you can correct the problem by moving the subwoofer farther from the receiver.
• The subwoofer will not produce interference if its power is off or if its volume is set
to minimum level. If interference occurs under these conditions, the problem lies elsewhere.
• If you are using a freestanding indoor antenna (such as a loop antenna) with your AM
device, keep the antenna (and antenna wires) as far as possible from the subwoofer (and subwoofer wires).

Subwoofer and Satellite Speaker Magnetic Shielding and TV Color Reception
The speakers (subwoofer and satellite speaker) include magnetic shielding and can therefore be installed close to a TV set. If installing close to a TV, however, be sure to follow the procedure below. This will allow the TV's automatic degaussing feature to correct for any magnetic field generated by the speakers. Neglecting to set the speakers up according to this procedure may result in color distortion on the TV.
1 Switch off all power to the TV. 2 Set up the speakers, and then wait at least 30 minutes before switching the
power to the TV back on.
If color irregularities occur even after you have followed the steps above, move the speakers farther from the TV.
• If using the speakers close to your TV, keep it well separated from other magnetic sources. Interaction of an external magnet with the speakers may produce distortion in TV color.
• Electromagnetism generated by the TV may cause the speakers to produce sound even while the stereo or AM device connected to it is off. You can correct the problem by moving the speakers farther from the TV.
Feedback (Howling)
Installing the subwoofer too close to an analog record player may result in howling, caused by feedback of sound into the player. You can correct the problem by reducing the subwoofer volume or by moving the subwoofer further from the player.
DEUTSCH
NEDERLANDS
CAUTION (SUBWOOFER only)
To ensure adequate ventilation and prevent risk of fire or damage from overheating, please observe the following.
÷ Never place objects that would impair heat release onto the top of the
unit.
÷ Leave adequate open space on all sides. Minimum required open space
at each side (measuring from the greatest protection is as follows.)
Top panel : 50 cm Side panel : 10 cm Back panel : 10 cm
In rare cases, feedback may also occur with cassette decks or with CD, minidisk, and DVD players, producing howling or other types of sound or image distortion. Again, you can correct the problem by reducing the subwoofer volume or moving the subwoofer.
