Important notes for users in the
U.K.

Mains plug

This apparatus is fitted with an approved 13
Amp plug. To change a fuse in this type of plug
proceed as follows:

1 Remove fuse cover and fuse.

2 Fix new fuse which should be a BS1362 5

Amp, A.S.T.A. or BSI approved type.

3 Refit the fuse cover.

If the fitted plug is not suitable for your socket
outlets, it should be cut off and an appropriate
plug fitted in its place.
If the mains plug contains a fuse, this should
have a value of 5 Amp. If a plug without a fuse
is used, the fuse at the distribution board
should not be greater than 5 Amp.

Note: The severed plug must be disposed of to
avoid a possible shock hazard should it be
inserted into a 13 Amp socket elsewhere.

How to connect a plug

The wires in the mains lead are coloured with
the following code: blue = neutral (N),
brown = live (L).

¶ As these colours may not correspond with the

colour markings identifying the terminals in
your plug, proceed as follows:
– Connect the blue wire to the terminal
marked N or coloured black.
– Connect the brown wire to the terminal
marked L or coloured red.
– Do not connect either wire to the earth
terminal in the plug, marked E (or e) or
coloured green (or green and yellow).

Before replacing the plug cover, make certain
that the cord grip is clamped over the sheath
of the lead - not simply over the two wires.

You can choose to hang the speakers on
the wall. Attach the supplied bracket
firmly to the rear of speakers using the
supplied screws. Then mount a screw
(not supplied) on the wall where the
speaker is to be hung and hook the
speaker securely onto the mounted
screw.

CAUTION!
You should get a qualified person to
attach the brackets to the wall. DO
NOT do it by yourself to avoid
unexpected damage to the
equipment or injury to personnel.

Helpful Hints:
– The rear speakers are labelled as REAR L
(left) or REAR R (right).
– The front speakers are labelled as
FRONT L (left) or FRONT R (right).

Step 1: Set up the speakers

For best possible surround sound, all the
speakers (except subwoofer) should be
placed at the same distance from the
listening position.

1 Place the front left and right speakers at

equal distances from the TV and at an
angle of approximately 45 degrees from
the listening position.

2 Place the centre speaker above the TV or

the AV receiver so that the centre
channel’s sound is localised.

3 Place the rear speakers at normal

listening ear level facing each other or
mounted on the wall.

4 Place the subwoofer on the floor near

the TV.

Helpful Hints:
–To avoid magnetic interference, do not
position the front speakers too close to your
TV.
– Allow adequate ventilation around the AV
receiver.
