INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing the MANHATTAN® 8000 Series 5.1 Multimedia Speaker System,
Model 160988.
These speakers feature internally powered amplifiers, making them compatible with computers
and CD and DVD players, including portable versions of such devices. They are also completely
shielded in terms of magnetization, and so will not interfere with the performance or operation
of your computer or TV monitor. Follow the simple setup steps, and you’ll soon be able to enjoy
these great features:
• Two-way speakers that offer vivid sound reproduction – ideal for games, movies and music
• Front-firing subwoofer that radiates deep bass response
• Separate bass control
• Floor stands that elevate rear speakers to optimum listening height
• Full-function remote control that adjusts settings from anywhere in the room
• Shielding that prevents distortion and maintains clear, crisp sound
• RMS power 80 W + 20 W x 5

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Prior to the installation of your speakers, read the following safety guidelines to help prevent
damage to any electrical components or harm to users.
• Do not place this product or any of its parts near heat or potential heat sources, nor in any
moist or damp environment.
• Do not hit, drop or mishandle electrical components in such a way as to loosen, break or
otherwise render inoperative any interior or exterior parts.
• Do not remove the back panel except as directed by a qualified technician in order to
minimize the possibility of electrical shock. If in need of repair or inspection, bring the
speaker(s) to a professional repair person.
• Should liquids or other materials (including fragments of broken parts) get inside the speaker
cabinet, immediately shut power off to the speaker and have it professionally inspected
and/or repaired before further operation.
• Turn off the power and unplug from power source when the system is not in use.

SETUP
1. Carefully unpack the speakers and cables. Do not lift or remove the speakers from the box
by the function knobs or other attachments as this may damage the speaker unit.
2. Place the satellite speakers and subwoofer in the desired listening location.
3. Attach the satellite speakers to the
subwoofer unit using the included RCA-to stereo cables as shown at right. Match
each color-coded cable connector to the
proper color-coded speaker and subwoofer
input jacks. If speaker wire is included
instead of RCA-to-stereo cables, attach
one of the bare wire ends to the positive
terminal of the speaker; attach the other
end of the same wire to the positive terminal
of the subwoofer. Repeat the steps with the
remaining wires to connect the negative
terminals (gently twist each bare end to
prevent stray strands from touching the
other terminal).

4. Verify that batteries are properly inserted in the
remote control unit.
5. Connect the RCA-to-stereo cables as shown to the
computer sound card or other audio source.
6. If connecting to a computer, conduct a sound card
test. With the speakers properly connected and
turned on, find the computer’s sound card in the
device manager and begin the test. Each channel
should be able to be tested for sound and link. Refer
to the remote control diagram for button operation.
7. With the “test” window still open, use the remote
control to turn up the volume on each channel
(speaker). Test sound should be heard. It may be
necessary to hold the volume button for several
minutes before sound is heard and to complete the
test.
NOTE: If the test sound is not heard, check and
deactivate the mute feature (press mute button once)
and do the test again.
