Safety precautions
Set the unit up on an even surface away from direct sunlight,
high temperatures, high humidity, and excessive vibration.
These conditions can damage the cabinet and other
components, thereby shortening the unit’s service life. Do not
place heavy items on the unit.
Do not use high voltage power sources. This can overload the
unit and cause a fire. Do not use a DC power source. Check
the source carefully when setting the unit up on a ship or other
place where DC is used.
Ensure the AC mains lead is connected correctly and not
damaged. Poor connection and lead damage can cause fire or
electric shock. Do not pull, bend, or place heavy items on the
lead.
Grasp the plug firmly when unplugging the lead. Pulling the AC
mains lead can cause electric shock. Do not handle the plug
with wet hands. This can cause electric shock.
Do not let metal objects fall inside the unit. This can cause
electric shock or malfunction.
Do not let liquids get into the unit. This can cause electric
shock or malfunction. If this occurs, immediately disconnect
the unit from the power supply and contact your dealer.
Do not spray insecticides onto or into the unit. They contain
flammable gases which can ignite if sprayed into the unit.
Do not attempt to repair this unit by yourself. If sound is
interrupted, indicators fail to light, smoke appears, or any other
problem that is not covered in these instructions occurs,
disconnect the AC mains lead and contact your dealer or an
authorized service centre. Electric shock or damage to the unit
can occur if the unit is repaired, disassembled or reconstructed
by unqualified persons.
Extend operating life by disconnecting the unit from the power
source if it is not to be used for a long time.

≥ Be careful not to cross (short-circuit) or reverse the polarity of the speaker wires as doing so may damage the speakers.
≥ Don’t use a front speaker as a surround speaker or vice versa. Verify the type of speaker with the label on the rear of the speaker before
connecting the appropriate cable.
≥ To avoid injury by falling or dropping the speaker, place the speaker cables with care not to stumble or hook.
≥ Do not hold the speaker in one hand to avoid injury by dropping the speaker when carrying.
[BTT755]
∫ Preventing the speakers from falling
≥Consult a qualified housing contractor concerning the appropriate procedure when attaching to a concrete wall or a surface that
may not have strong enough support. Improper attachment may result in damage to the wall or speakers.
≥Use a string of less than ‰ 2.0 mm, which is capable of supporting over 10 kg.

STEP 2: Positioning
How you set up your speakers can affect the bass and the sound field.
Setup example
Place the front, centre, surround speakers at approximately
the same distance from the seating position.
The angles in the diagram are approximate.
≥ Keep your speakers at least 10 mm away from the system for proper
ventilation.
A Centre speaker
≥
Put on a rack or shelf not to interfere with the TV’s various
sensors (ambient light, etc.). Vibration caused by the speaker
can disrupt the picture if it is placed directly on the TV.
B Front speakers
C Subwoofer
D Surround speakers
≥ Place the speakers at the same height or higher than ear
level.
E [BTT755[for[Australia[and[New[Zealand]
Wireless system
≥ Place the wireless system within approximately 10 m
from the main unit, and in a horizontal position with the
top panel faced upward.
≥ To allow for proper ventilation and to maintain good
airflow around the wireless system, position it with at
least 5 cm of space on all sides.
≥ Do not use the wireless system or the digital transmitter
in a metal cabinet or bookshelf.
∫ If irregular colouring occurs on your TV,
turn the TV off for about 30 minutes.
If it persists, move the speakers further away from the TV.
[BTT755[for[Australia[and[New[Zealand]
∫ Wireless system
To avoid interference, maintain the following distances
between the wireless system and other electronic devices
that use the same radio frequency (2.4 GHz band).
The wireless system will automatically seek a clear channel if
any of these other devices interfere with its communication.
When this happens, the wireless link indicator (“ [W] ”) flashes
on the main unit, and there is a brief interruption in audio
coming from the surround speakers.
This is the normal operation of the product working to assure
the best possible performance of your home theatre system.
If the interference persists, try moving the other devices to
another location outside the range of the wireless system or
move the wireless system nearer to the main unit.
∫
Upgrade your system to 7.1-channel system
The main unit is designed to enjoy the 7.1ch surround sound. By
connecting 2 units of the Panasonic wireless system SH-FX71
with 4 speakers, more theatre-like effect can be available.
Necessary equipment:
[BTT755[for[Australia[and[New[Zealand]
≥ 1 optional wireless system (SH-FX71)
≥ 2 additional speakers
[Impedance: 3 ≠ to 6 ≠, Speaker input power: 100 W (Min)]
[Except[BTT755[for[Australia[and[New[Zealand]
≥ 2 optional wireless systems (SH-FX71)
≥ 2 additional speakers
[Impedance: 3 ≠ to 6 ≠, Speaker input power: 100 W (Min)]
For more details, refer to the operating instructions for the
optional wireless system.

[Except[BTT755[for[Australia[and[New[Zealand]
You can enjoy surround speaker
sound wirelessly when you use the
optional Panasonic wireless
accessory (SH-FX71).
For more details, refer to the operating
instructions for the optional wireless
system.
≥ Use only supplied speakers
Using other speakers can damage the unit, and sound quality will be
negatively affected.
≥ You can damage your speakers and shorten their useful life if you play
sound at high levels over extended periods.
≥ Positioning speakers in front
It is possible to locate all the speakers in front of the listening position.
However, the optimal surround sound effect may not be obtainable.
≥ Place speakers on flat secure bases.
≥ Placing speakers too close to floors, walls, and corners can result in
excessive bass. Cover walls and windows with thick curtains.
≥ For optional wall mount, refer to page 44.
