Manual de instrucciones

English

Thank you for buying this Pioneer product.

Please read through these operating instructions before using your speaker system so you will know how to make the most of its performance. After you have finished reading the instructions, put them away in a safe place for future reference.

WARNING:

Handling the power cord on this product or cords associated with accessories sold with the product will expose you to lead, a chemical known to the State of California and other governmental entities to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm.

Wash hands after handling.

CAUTION

This product is designed exclusively for use with the Pioneer Plasma Display. For more information on compatibility, please consult with your nearest Pioneer authorized dealer or service center.

BEFORE USE

÷The nominal impedance of this speaker system is 8 ohms.

÷In order to prevent damage to the speaker system resulting from input overload, please observe the following precautions:

÷Do not supply power to the speaker system in excess of the maximum permissable input. This can result in damage or a possible fire hazard.

÷When connecting or disconnecting pin-plugs, be sure that amplifier power is OFF.

÷When using a graphic equalizer to emphasize loud sounds of a high frequency range, do not use excessive amplifier volume.

÷Do not force a low-powered amplifier to produce a loud volume of sound (the amplifier’s harmonic distortion will be increased, and you may damage the speaker).

÷Please handle the speakers with sufficient care, as the grille net and the cabinet can become damaged or broken when they are subjected to strong external impacts.

÷Placing a CRT computer screen or CRT monitor near to the speakers may result in interference or color distortion. If this happens, distance the monitor from the speakers.

Installation

÷Consult your dealer if you encounter any difficulties with this installation.

÷Pioneer is not liable for any damage resulting from improper installation, improper use, modification, or natural disasters.

HOW TO ROURE CABLES

Speed clamps are included with the Plasma Display for tidying your cables and keeping extra cable length out of the way.

Attach speed clamps at the direction of the running cables.

*When the Pioneer stand, sold separately, is not used, use the two holes that are marked with arrows in the diagram ( ) as the holes for attaching speed clamps.

Using Speed Clamps

Wrap the speed clamp around the bundled cables and press B into hole A.

To remove a speed clamp, use pliers to twist it 90° and then pull it out. (This may result in weakening or damaging the clamp.)

CABINET MAINTENANCE

÷Use a polishing cloth or dry cloth to wipe off dust and dirt.

÷When the cabinet is very dirty, wipe with a soft cloth moistened with water-diluted cleanser; then wipe again with a dry cloth. Do not use furniture wax or cleaners. They may damage the surface of the cabinet.

÷Never use thinner, benzine, insecticide sprays and other chemicals on or near the cabinets, since these will corrode the surfaces.

÷When a chemical cloth is used, read the cautions for the chemical cloth carefully.
