Step 1 Selecting the placement method

≥Choose a placement method that suits you best.

Before use

RQT9849

Caution

≥ This system is to be used only as indicated in these instructions. 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 the speakers to a wall using methods other than those described in this manual.

The speaker system

≥Use a screwdriver (i) for assembling the speakers. ≥Do not hold the speakers in one hand to avoid injury, you may drop the speakers when carrying them.

∫ When attaching the speakers to a wall

The wall or pillar on which the speakers are to be attached should be capable of supporting 33 kg per screw. Consultation with a qualified installation specialist is recommended when attaching the speakers to a wall. Improper attachment may result in damage to the wall and speakers, and personal injury.

∫ When placing the speakers in front of the TV

The speakers may block or interfere with the TV’s various sensors (C.A.T.S. (Contrast Automatic Tracking System) sensor, remote control sensor, etc.) and the 3D Eyewear transmitters on a 3D compatible TV.

≥ If the leg stands are being used

Change the height of the leg stands and/or move the speakers further away from the TV. If the TV still does not function correctly, try removing the leg stands.

≥ If the leg stands are not used

Move the speakers further away from the TV. If the TV still does not function properly, try placing them beside the TV (> 9).

The active subwoofer

When carrying the active subwoofer

A Do not hold the active subwoofer from this

opening.

The parts inside may get damaged.

B Always hold the bottom of the active subwoofer when

moving it.

Wireless interference

To avoid interference, maintain the following distances between the main unit/active subwoofer and other electronic devices that use the same radio frequency (2.4 GHz band).

C Main unit/active subwoofer D Wireless router, cordless phone and other



≥ Place the active subwoofer within a few meters of the main unit and in a horizontal position with the top panel facing upward. ≥ Do not use the main unit or the active subwoofer in a metal cabinet. ≥

Placing the active subwoofer too close to the walls and corners can result in excessive bass. Cover walls and windows with thick curtains.

≥

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.

≥

Keep magnetised items away. Magnetised cards, watches, etc., can be damaged if placed too close to the active subwoofer and the speakers.

Step 2 Assembling the speakers

When attaching the speakers to a wall

Place the speakers horizontally

The speakers can be wall mounted by drilling screws into the wall, etc. Make sure that the screw used and the wall are strong enough to support the weight of at least 33 kg. The screws and other items are not supplied as the type and size will vary with each installation.

For details about the required screws, refer to the diagram below the step “Drive a screw into the wall.”(>
