Important Safety Information

READ these instructions.

KEEP these instructions.

HEED all warnings.

FOLLOW all instructions.

DO NOT use this apparatus near water.

CLEAN ONLY with dry cloth.

DO NOT block any ventilation openings. Install in accordance with the

manufacturer’s instructions.

DO NOT install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus (including ampliﬁers) that produce heat.

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 wider blade or the third prong is provided for your safety. If the provided plug does not ﬁt into your outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet.

10.

PROTECT the power cord from being walked on or pinched, particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the apparatus.

11.

ONLY USE attachments/accessories speciﬁed by the manufacturer.

12.

USE only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table speciﬁed by the manufacturer, or sold with the apparatus. When a cart is used, use caution when moving the cart/apparatus combination to avoid injury from tip-over.

13.

UNPLUG this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time.

14.

REFER all servicing to qualiﬁed service personnel. Servicing is required when the apparatus has been damaged in any way, such as power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled, objects have fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.

INDE X pag e i/ii

WARNING:

rain or moisture.

WARNING: Batteries (battery pack or batteries installed) shall not be exposed to

excessive heat such as sunshine, ﬁre or the like.

WARNING: No naked ﬂame sources – such as candles – should be placed on

the product.

To reduce the risk of fire or electrical shock, do not expose this apparatus to

W A R N I N G

RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK.

DO NOT OPEN.

WARNING: Do Not Open! Risk of Electrical Shock. Voltages in this equipment are hazardous to life. No user-serviceable parts inside. Refer all servicing to qualified ser vice personnel.

WARNING: This product is intended to be operated ONLY from the AC Voltages listed on the

back panel or included power supply of the product. Operation from voltages other than those

indicated may cause irreversible damage to the product and void the product's warranty. The

use of AC Plug Adapters is cautioned because it can allow the product to be plugged into

voltages in which the product was not designed to operate. If the product is equipped with a

detachable power cord, use only the type provided with your product or by your local distributor

and/or retailer. If you are unsure of the correct operational voltage, please contact your local

distributor and/or retailer.

CAUTION : Place the equipment near a main power supply outlet and make sure that you can

easily access the power breaker switch.

NOTE: If the AC mains connection provides a third prong for ground (Class 1 devices), the

device shall be connected to a main socket outlet with a protective earthing connection.

NOTE: If a DVD is present, the following laser safety statement applies:

For Your Safety: The AC power plug is polarized (one blade is wider than the other) and only fits into an AC power outlet one way. If the plug won’t go into the outlet completely, turn the plug over and try to insert it the other way. If it still won’t fit, contact a qualified electrician to change the outlet, or use a different one. Do not attempt to bypass this safety feature.

DO NOT expose this apparatus to dripping or splashing and ensure

15.

that no objects ﬁlled with liquids, such as vases, are placed on the apparatus.

To completely disconnect this apparatus from the AC Mains, disconnect

16.

the power supply cord plug from the AC receptacle.

The mains plug of the power supply cord shall remain readily operable.

17.

The exclamation point, within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of important operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the product.

The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol within an equilateral triangle, is intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated “dangerous voltage” within the product’s enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electrical shock to persons.

LASER SAFET Y: This unit employs a laser. Due to possible eye injury, only a qualified

service person should remove the cover or attempt to service this device.

CAUTION : Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those

specified herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure.

STEP 3B: TV Audio Connection

Use this connection if you receive your TV signal via regular cable (no cable box) or with an off-air antenna.

CONNE CTIONS p age 3/4

If you don't have a set-top box connected to your TV (you either have cable coming out of the wall or an off-air antenna, such as HD), simply connect the Audio OUTPUT jacks on the TV to the AUDIO INPUT jacks on the Klipsch system. If you want the TV sound to come through the Klipsch system, you need to make this audio connection.

Choose the best TV AUDIO connection available (1A, 1B, or 1C).

If your TV doesn’t have DI

switch on the back of your Klipsch system to the

position. If you put the P.SCAN switch in the ON position and your T V doesn’t support progressive scan, you won’t see a picture on the TV screen.

Note: Until recently, TVs only had VIDEO INPUT jacks. Therefore, your TV might not carry the "IN" or "Input" label even though it is an input.

Note: If an HDMI (digital) input is used to connect a source (such as a

able or satellite box) to the CS-700, the TV must also be connected with

c an HDMI cable to preserve the digital signal. Also, if an analog signal is c

onnected to the CS-700, the TV must also be connected with an analog

signal. The CS-700 will not up-convert an analog signal to a digital signal.

Rubber pads have been included in the Accessory box. These self adhesive pads can be applied to the bottom of the speakers.

The CS-700 wirelessly transmits the subwoofer signal from the A/V Center to the subwoofer. (If you wish to connect the subwoofer with a standard RCA cable, simply connect one end of the cable to the black “LFE” OUTPUT on the rear of the A /V Center and the other end to the “LFE” INPUT on the rear of the subwoofer. Cable not included.)

Plug the power cord into the subwoofer and an AC outlet and turn the

subwoofer ON.

For best results, the antenna on the rear of the CS-700 A/ V Center should be pointed up.

Speaker Setup Considerations

Front speakers typically sound best

•

when their tweeters are at approximately ear height for seated listeners. If this isn’t possible, it is sometimes beneﬁcial to tilt the speaker down or up slightly so that it is aimed into the listening area.

If possible, position the speakers the same distance apart as they are

•

from the listening position.

Speakers should be pointed straight forward. Do not place the

•

speakers at an angle.

If you are putting speakers in a cabinet, on a rack or a table, try to

•

bring them out far enough so that they are at least ﬂush with the cabinet’s front edge.

When practical, arrange each speaker so that it is at somewhat

•

different distances from the ﬂoor, the wall behind it, and the wall beside it. It can also help to have the left and right front speakers at different distances from their nearest side walls. This staggering helps smooth the bass range. Each speaker can be set on its bottom or side. If you set them on the side and want to turn the Klipsch logo, carefully pull the logo forward, turn and release it.

The subwoofer’s output will increase as it is moved closer to walls,

•

with maximum output when it is placed in a corner. If practical,

always place the subwoofer near a wall. Additionally, a subwoofer will deliver the smoothest bass response when placed near a wall away from openings, such as doors.

Naturally, there are exceptions to the rules, since no two rooms or

•

systems are exactly alike. Experiment with positioning to get the best sound.
