Caution for AC Mains Lead

For your safety, please read the following text carefully.

This appliance is supplied with a moulded three pin mains plug for your safety and convenience.

A 5-ampere fuse is fitted in this plug.

Should the fuse need to be replaced please ensure that the replacement fuse has a rating of 5-ampere and that it is approved by ASTA or BSI to BS1362.

Check for the ASTA mark Ï or the BSI mark Ì on the body of the fuse.

If the plug contains a removable fuse cover you must ensure that it is refitted when the fuse is replaced.

If you lose the fuse cover the plug must not be used until a replacement cover is obtained.

A replacement fuse cover can be purchased from your local dealer.

CAUTION!

IF THE FITTED MOULDED PLUG IS UNSUITABLE FOR THE SOCKET OUTLET IN YOUR HOME THEN THE FUSE SHOULD BE REMOVED AND THE PLUG CUT OFF AND DISPOSED OF SAFELY.

THERE IS A DANGER OF SEVERE ELECTRICAL SHOCK IF THE CUT OFF PLUG IS INSERTED INTO ANY 13-AMPERE SOCKET.

If a new plug is to be fitted please observe the wiring code as stated below.

If in any doubt please consult a qualified electrician.

IMPORTANT

The wires in this mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:

Blue: Neutral, Brown: Live.

As these colours may not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:

The wire which is coloured Blue must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter N or coloured Black or Blue.

The wire which is coloured Brown must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter L or coloured Brown or Red.

WARNING: DO NOT CONNECT EITHER WIRE TO THE EARTH TERMINAL WHICH IS MARKED WITH THE LETTER E, BY THE EARTH SYMBOL Ó OR

COLOURED GREEN OR GREEN/YELLOW. THIS PLUG IS NOT WATERPROOF—KEEP DRY.

Before use

Remove the connector cover.

Preventing the speakers from falling

≥You will need to obtain the appropriate screw eyes to match the walls or pillars to which they are going to be fastened.

≥Consult a qualified housing contractor concerning the appropriate procedure when attaching to a concrete wall or a surface that may not have strong enough support. Improper attachment may result in damage to the wall or speakers.

step 2 Installation

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 curtains.

[Note]

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

Setup example (“Surround layout (Recommended)”: Standard surround placement)

Place the front, center, and surround speakers at approximately the same distance from the seating position. The angles in the diagram are approximate.

§1 Position with at least 5 cm of space on all sides for proper ventilation.

§2 Put on a rack or shelf. Vibration caused by the speaker can disrupt the picture if it is placed directly on the TV.

§3 Place to the right or left of the TV, on the floor or a sturdy shelf so that it will not cause vibration. Leave about 30 cm from the TV.

Depending on the room layout, you may like to use all the speakers at the front (“Front layout (Alternative)”) (B 10, EASY SETUP settings).

Notes on speaker use

Use only supplied speakers

Using other speakers can damage the unit, and sound quality will be negatively affected.

≥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 reverberating due to a 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.

If irregular colouring occurs on your TV

The center speaker is designed to be used close to a TV, but the picture may be affected with some TVs and setup combinations.

If this occurs, turn the TV off for about 30 minutes.

The demagnetising function of the TV should correct the problem. If it persists, move the speakers further away from the TV.

Caution

This unit and supplied speakers are to be used only as indicated in this setup. 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.

Caution

Do not touch the front netted area of the speakers. Hold by the sides.

step 3 Connections

Turn off all equipment before connection and read the appropriate operating instructions.

Do not connect the AC mains lead until all other connections are completed.

1 Speaker connections

Pay attention to the type of speaker and the connector colour when you place the speakers.

This unit (rear)

Connect to the terminals of the same colour.

Use of the speaker cable stickers is convenient when making cable connections.

Speakers (rear)

Insert the wire fully, taking care not to insert beyond the wire insulation.
