cover in the direction of the arrow.

Follow these precautions to avoid leaking or cracking batteries:

Place batteries in the remote control so they match the polarity:(+) to (+)and (–)to (–).

•

Use the correct type of batteries. Batteries that look similar may differ in voltage.

•

Always replace both batteries at the same time.

•

Do not expose batteries to heat or flame.

•

Insert two 1.5V AAA

batteries, paying attention to the correct polarities (+ and –).

Replace the battery

cover.

Range of operation of the remote control

The remote control can be used up to approximately 23 feet/7 meters in a straight line. It can also be operated at a horizontal angle of up to 30° from the remote control sensor.

Before moving or installing the product, be sure to turn off the power and disconnect the power cord.

Position of AV Receiver

Place AV Receiver on a dedicated stand or rack.

•

Front Speakers

•

Place these speakers in front of your listening position, facing inwards (about 45°) toward you. Place the speakers so that their tweeters will be at the

• same height as your ears. Align the front face of the front speakers with the front

• face of the center speaker or place them slightly in front of the center speaker.

Center speaker

•

It is best to install it at the same height as the front speakers. You can also install it directly over or under the TV.

•

Surround Back Speakers

•

Subwoofer

•

The position of the subwoofer is not so critical. Place it anywhere you like.

Subwoofer function

Active subwoofer with integrated 150W amplifier provides rich bass sound.

Connect the SW OUT terminal of the amplifier (AV-R720) to the INPUT

terminal of the subwoofer speaker.

Surround Speakers

Place these speakers behind your listening position.

•

If there isn't enough room, place these speakers so they face each other.

•

Place them about 60 to 90cm (2 to 3feet) above your ears, facing slightly downward.

❈ Unlike the front and center speakers, the surround

speakers are used to handle mainly sound effects and sound will not come from them all the time.

If you are using two rear center speakers, place them facing forward from behind the listening position. Place the surround back speaker about 70 cm to 1 m (2.3~3.3feet) above surround speakers, facing slightly downwards.

When you attach the speakers to a wall, make sure to

• fasten them tightly so they do not fall off.

Press the POWER button on the rear side of the subwoofer to turn

the power on.

Using the subwoofer’s VOLUME control, you can set the desired bass level

(See page 30 "Setting Speaker Level" to set the subwoofer level in the menu).
