S-LX -LR

Thank you for buying this Pioneer product. Please read through

these operating instructions so you will know how to operate your model properly. After you have finished reading the instructions, put them away in a safe place for future reference.

Before you start

• The nominal impedance of this speaker system is 6 Ω. Connect the speaker system to an amplifier with a load impedance of 6

Ω

(a model with “6 Ω” displayed on the speaker output

terminals).

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 permissible input.

• When using a graphic equalizer to emphasize loud sounds in the high-frequency range, do not use excessive amplifier volume.

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

Care of the speaker cabinets

• With normal use, wiping with a soft cloth should be sufficient to keep the cabinet clean. If necessary, clean with a cloth dipped in a neutral cleanser diluted five or six times with water, and wrung out well. Do not use furniture wax or cleansers. Never use alcohol, thinners, benzine, insecticide sprays or other chemicals on or near this unit since these will corrode the surfaces. When using chemically-treated cloths, be sure to carefully read their accompanying instruction manual.

Caution

Installation

• Do not place the speaker on an unstable surface, as doing so may cause the speaker to fall and cause damage or bodily injury.

• Switch off and unplug your AV equipment and consult the instructions when connecting up components. Make sure you use the correct connecting cables.

• When placing this unit, avoid areas where it may be likely to fall and cause injury in the event of a natural disaster (such as an earthquake). For more information, see page 6.

• Pioneer is not responsible for any accidents or damage that result from improper installation, misuse or modification of the product, or natural disasters.

Using the speakers

• Do not use the speaker to output distorted sound for long periods of time. This can result in damages to the speaker and poses a potential fire hazard.

• Do not sit or stand on the speaker, or let children play on the speaker. Doing so could provoke the speaker to fall, causing damages or bodily injury.

CAUTION

hese speaker terminals carry HAZARDOUS LIVE voltage. To prevent the risk of electric shock when connecting or disconnecting the speaker cables, disconnect the power cord before touching any uninsulated parts.

Cleaning the glossy finish of the speaker system

• When cleaning the finish of the speaker system, gently wipe it with a dry soft cloth; the supplied cleaning cloth.

• If you use a dusty or hard cloth or if you rub the screen hard, the finish of the product will be scratched.

Surround left

So far as possible, place the front left and front right speakers on the same plane as the TV screen.

Place the left and right speakers equal distances from your listening position for good stereo sound. Use speaker cords of the same length for each speaker.

The front right speaker and the surround left speaker are interchangeable. The front left speaker and the surround right speaker are also interchangeable.

When using this speaker system as surround speakers, place the front right speaker as the surround left speaker, and the front left speaker as the surround right speaker.

• S-LX70C is recommended for the center speaker.

• S-LX70W is recommended for the subwoofer.

Surround right

Speaker system grill

The speaker system grill cannot be removed. Do not try to forcibly remove it since doing so may damage the grille.

Installing the speakers

This speaker system cannot be placed directly on the surface of floors or shelves. Always attach to a wall using the supplied brackets, or use speaker stand CP-LX70 (floor stand) (sold separately) or CP-LX70TS (tabletop stand) (sold separately) when placing on the surface of floors or shelves.

• This speaker system is magnetically shielded. However, depending on the installation location, color distortion may occur if the speaker system is installed extremely close to the screen of a television set. If this happens, turn the power switch of the television set OFF, and turn it ON after 15 to 30 minutes. If the problem persists, place the speaker system away from the television set.

Mounting on walls

• Make sure that the wall you intend to mount the speakers on is strong enough to support them.

• Remember that the speaker system is heavy. Improper installation of the speakers could cause them to fall and cause damage or injuries to persons nearby.

• Mounting screws are not supplied. Use screws suitable for the wall material and support the weight of the speaker.

If you are unsure of the qualities and strength of the walls, consult a professional for advice.

1 Connect speaker cables.

• Speaker cables are not included with this speaker system.

This speaker does not include speaker cables used for connecting to an amplifier. Take the following factors into consideration when choosing speaker cables so that you can get the most from your speaker system:

• Use heavy-gauge speaker cable if possible, and keep the cables to the minimum necessary length.

• If the length of cable required for left and right speakers differs, use cables of the same length, matched to the longer distance.

• Cables have differing characteristics. Keep this in mind when using any cable.

• Connections at speaker and amplifier terminals should be made as tight and secure as possible to help reduce contact resistance.

When mounting the speakers onto walls using the brackets, connect the speaker cables before attaching speakers onto the brackets.

Once decided on the location of installation (such as the wall space to the left and right of the TV), attach the speakers following the next procedures.

Two types of brackets (for speakers) are supplied. When using alongside with a Pioneer plasma television, use the L-type brackets. When attaching flush against the wall, use the S-type brackets.

The left and right wall brackets are shaped differently. Be sure to install the correct bracket on each side.

Bracket (for wall/Left) Bracket (for wall/Right)

• If the cables’ wires happen to be pushed out of the terminals, allowing the wires to come into contact with each other, it places an excessive additional load on the amp. This may cause the amp to stop functioning, and may even damage the amp.

• After connecting the plugs, pull lightly on the cables to make sure that the ends of the cables are securely connected to the terminals. Poor connections can create noise and interruptions in the sound.

• When using a set of speakers connected to an amplifier, you won’t be able to obtain the normal stereo effect if the polarity (

, –) of one of the speakers (left or right) is reversed.

2 Paste the supplied wall mounting template on the area of installation.

• The left and right wall mounting templates are shaped differently.

Attach the template level to the ground using an adhesive such as tape. Make sure the template is straight to avoid mounting the speaker crookedly. Pasting the template too close to the TV may cause the TV to get in the way of the speaker when installing. Make sure the template and TV do not overlap.

Template (Left) Template (Right)

3 Temporarily attach the bracket (for wall) to the specified location on the template.

Align the bracket (for wall) to the specified location on the template, and temporarily attach with a screw (6 mm diameter screw recommended) at location [A].

Adjust the attachment position of the bracket so that it is aligned with the template.

• The following illustration is an example of attaching the right bracket (for wall).
