How you set up your speakers can affect the bass and the sound field. Note the following points:

≥ Place speakers on flat secure bases. ≥ Keep your speakers at least 10 mm away from the system for proper

ventilation.

≥ Placing speakers too close to floors, walls, and corners can result in

excessive bass. Cover walls and windows with thick curtains.

≥ For optional wall mount, refer to page 16.

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 8, Easy setup).

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 on 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

≥ The main 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.

Alternative connection to a TV



Use an FM outdoor antenna if radio reception is poor.

Audio and video connections

≥ To listen to the TV audio on the sound system, connect the audio cable.

Refer to the operating instructions of the respective devices for the settings necessary to output the audio.

Recommended connection to a TV

This connection provides a much purer picture than the VIDEO OUT terminal.



≥ Do not make the video connections through the VCR.

Due to copy guard protection, the picture may not be displayed properly.

To enjoy progressive video

≥ Connect to a progressive output compatible TV.

– Select “Progressive” in “Video Out (I/P)” in Video menu. (B 14)

≥ Panasonic TVs with 576/50i·50p, 480/60i·60p input terminals are

progressive compatible. Consult the manufacturer if you have another brand of TV.



If you have various sound sources (such as Blu-ray Disc player, DVD recorder, VCR, etc.), connect them to the available inputs on the TV and the TV output should then be connected to the AUX/TV terminal of the main unit.

step 3 AC mains lead connection

Conserving power

The main unit consumes a small amount of power, even when it is in standby mode (approx. 0.45 W). To save power when the unit is not to be used for a long time, unplug it from the household mains socket. You will need to reset some memory items when plugging back the main unit.



≥ The supplied AC mains lead is for use with the main unit only.

Do not use it with other equipment. Also, do not use cords for other equipment with the main unit.

≥ Please use the supplied AC mains lead suitable for the household mains

socket.

Power failure resume

This unit will memorize the playback position when there is a power failure.

After the power supply recovers, turn on your TV and the main unit. Playback will resume from the point at which it was stopped.



≥ The resume playback timing may vary a few seconds. ≥ This function may not work for files that do not have resume playback. ≥ The position is cleared if the disc tray is opened or the USB device is

removed.
