CAUTION:

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with

the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of

the FCC Rules.

These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection

against harmful interference in a residential installation. This

equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency

energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the

instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio

communications. However, there is no guarantee that inter-

ference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equip-

ment does cause harmful interference to radio or television

reception, which can be determined by turning the equip-

ment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the

interference by one or more of the following measures:

•

Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

•

Increase the separation between the equipment and re-

ceiver.

•

Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different

from that to which the receiver is connected.

•

Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician

for help.

Any unauthorized changes or modifications to this equip-

ment would void the user’s authority to operate this device.

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Opera-

tion is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device

may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must

accept any interference received, including interference that

may cause undesired operation.

Listening caution

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 low 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.

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.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Read these operating instructions carefully before using the unit. Follow the safety instructions on the unit and the applicable safety instructions

listed below. Keep these operating instructions handy for future reference.

1) Read these instructions.

2) Keep these instructions.

3) Heed all warnings.

4) Follow all instructions.

5) Do not use this apparatus near water.

6) Clean only with dry cloth.

7) Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in accordance

with the manufacturer’s instructions.

8) Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat

registers, stoves, or other apparatus (including amplifiers) that

produce heat.

9) 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 wide blade or the third prong

are 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 the 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 or objects have fallen into the apparatus, the

apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not

operate normally, or has been dropped.

Locating

Optimum location

Distance: A=B=C=D=E

Front speaker (SB-DK20)

Speakers are designed identically so that no left or right channel

orientation is necessary.

Center speaker

•

(For the Middle East, South Africa and Asia)

The medium-sized speaker is the center speaker (SB-PC90).

•

(For U.S.A., Canada and others)

The small speaker with the short cord is the center speaker

(SB-PC93).

The model numbers are printed on the back of the speakers.

Surround speakers (SB-PS90)

The small speakers with the long cords are surround speakers.

Place on either side of listening position, or slightly to the rear,

about 1 meter higher than ear level with the Panasonic logo fac-

ing towards the listening position.

The effect varies with the type of music and music source.

Subwoofer (SB-W20)

Place near the television, on the floor or a sturdy shelf so that it

won’t cause vibration.

Note

•

Keep your speakers at least 10mm (

/32") away from the sys-

tem for proper ventilation.

•

Do not place the center speaker on the main unit as sound qual-

ity will be affected.

Use only supplied speakers

Using other speakers can damage the unit and sound quality will

be negatively affected.

Attaching to a wall

Surround speakers can be attached to a wall.

Set the speaker onto screws and slide through bracket to lock

into position.

Note

The wall or pillar on which the speakers are to be attached

should be capable of supporting 5 kg (11 Ib.) 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

damage has occurred or if you experi-

ence a sudden change in performance.

•

Do not attempt to attach these speakers

to walls using methods other than those

described in this manual.

Notes on speaker use

■ You can damage your speakers and shorten their useful life if

you play sound at high levels over extended periods.

■ 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 re-

sult in excessive bass. Cover walls and windows with a thick

curtain.

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.
