Keep your speakers at least 10 mm C%a") away from the system for proper ventilation.

Center speaker (@) 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 tele­ vision. Put the center speaker on a rack or shelf.

Surround speakers Left 0 Right) SB-AFC301

Place either side of the seating position, or slightly to the rear, about 1 meter (3 feet) higher than ear level.

•The left and right speakers are the same.

•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.

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.

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 com­ binations.

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.
