Selecting fine audio equipment such as the unit you've just pur
chased is only the start of your musical enjoyment. Now it’s time to
consider how you can maximize the fun and excitement your equip
ment offers. This manufacturer and the Electronic Industries
Association’s Consumer Electronics Group want you to get the
most out of your equipment by playing it at a safe level. One that
lets the sound come through loud and clear without annoying blar
ing or distortion—and, most importantly, without affecting your sen
sitive hearing.
We recommend you to avoid prolonged exposure to excessive
noise.
Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing “comfort level”
adapts to higher volumes of sound. So what sounds “normal” can
actually be loud and harmful to your hearing.
Guard against this by setting your equipment at a safe level
BEFORE your hearing adapts.
To establish a safe level:
• Start your volume control at a tow setting.
• Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and
clearly, and without distortion.
Once you have established a comfortable sound level:
• Set the dial and leave it there.
RQT5824
Taking a minute to do this now will help to prevent hearing damage
or loss in the future. After all, we want you listening for a lifetime.

Attaching to a wall
Surround speakers can be attached to a wail.
Set the speaker onto screws and slide through bracket to lock into
position.
The wall or pillar on which the speakers are to be attached should
be capable of supporting 5 kg (11 lb.) per screw.
Caution
• Use the speakers only with the recom
mended system. Failure to do so may lead
to damage to the amplifier and/or the
speakers, and may result in the risk of fire.
Consult a qualified service person if dam
age has occurred or if you experience a
sudden change In performance.
• Do not attempt to attach these speakers to
walls using methods other than those de
scribed in this manual.
Notes on speaker use
D You can damage your speakers and shorten their useful life if
you play sound at high levels over extended periods.
D Reduce the volume in the following cases to avoid damage.
•When playing distorted sound.
•When the speakers are receiving howling from a microphone
or record player, noise from FM broadcasts, or continuous
signals from an oscillator, test disc, or electronic instrument.
•When adjusting the sound quality.
•When turning the unit on or off.
Positioning for best effect
How you set up your speakers can affect the bass and the sound
field. Note the following points.
• 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 curtain.
• Place tweeters and other treble effect units at ear height.
• Place the front speakers at least 5 cm from walls as they have
bass reflex ports in the rear.
If irregular coloring occurs on your television
These speakers are designed to be used close to a television, but
the picture may be affected with some televisions and set-up
combinations.
If this occurs, turn the television off for about 30 minutes.
The television’s demagnetizing function should correct the
problem. If it persists, move the speakers further away from the
television.
