It may not be able to play some CD-R or CD-RW due to the condition
of the recording.

∫ DVD-R discs

Panasonic DVD-R recorded and finalized on a Panasonic DVD video
recorder are played as DVD-Video on this unit.
It may not be possible to play these discs in all cases due to the type
of disc or condition of the recording.

≥Do not write on the label side with a ball-point pen or other writing

instrument.

≥Do not use record cleaning sprays, benzine, thinner, static electric-

ity prevention liquids or any other solvent.

≥Do not attach labels or stickers to discs. (Do not use discs with

exposed adhesive from tape or left over peeled-off stickers.)

≥Do not use scratch-proof protectors or covers.
≥Do not use discs printed with label printers available on the market.

∫ Do not place or store discs in the following

places

≥Locations exposed to direct sunlight

Simple setup

STEP

Use only supplied speakers

Using other speakers can damage the unit and sound quality will be negatively affected.
Set the speakers up on an even surface to prevent them from falling. Take proper precautions to prevent the speakers from falling if you
cannot set them up on an even surface.
Place the front, center, and surround speakers at approximately the same distance from the seating position. The angles in the diagram are
approximate.

Front speakers (1 Left 2 Right)

[DT300] SB-DT300 [DT100] SB-DT100

Simple setup

≥Place it at least 15 cm away from wall surfaces to avoid

distortion and unwanted acoustical effects.

≥The left and right speakers are the same.

Main unit

Keep your speakers
at least 10 mm away
from the system for
proper ventilation.

Locating [DT300] ]DT100]

Center speaker (5) SB-AFC301

≥You can also put this speaker directly under the

television.

≥Do not place the center speaker on the main unit

as sound quality will be affected.

≥Vibration caused by the center speaker can dis-

rupt the picture if it is placed directly on the tele­vision. Put the center speaker on a rack or shelf.

Subwoofer (6) SB-W300

Place near the television, on the floor or a sturdy shelf so
that it won’t cause vibration.

Stacking

AV control receiver

DVD/CD Player

≥After you have completed setup and connection, wind the ex-

cess cord and keep together with string.

≥The front speaker nets can be removed.

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 sig-

nals from an oscillator, test disc, or electronic instrument.
–When adjusting the sound quality.
–When turning the unit on or off.

Surround speakers (3 Left 4 Right) SB-AFC301

Place either side of the seating position, or slightly to the
rear, about 1 meter higher than ear level.
≥The left and right speakers are the same.

Caution
≥Use the speakers only with the recommended 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 experience a sudden change in per­formance.

≥Do not attempt to attach these speakers to walls using

methods other than those described in this manual.

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 setup 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.
