CAUTION
Note to CATV system installer :
This reminder is provided to call the CATV system
installer’s attention to Section 820~40 of the NEC
which provides guidelines for proper grounding and,
in particular, specifies that the cable ground shall be
connected to the grounding system of the building,
as close to the point of cable entry as practical
Precautions
Ensure that the AC power supply in your house complies with the identification sticker located on the back of your player. Install your player
horizontally, on a suitable base (furniture), with enough space around it for ventilation (3~4inches). Make sure the ventilation slots are not
covered. Do not stack anything on top of the player. Do not place the player on amplifiers or other equipment which may become hot.
Before moving the player, ensure the disc tray is empty. This player is designed for continuous use. Switching off the DVD player to the stand-by
mode does not disconnect the electrical supply. In order to disconnect the player completely from the power supply, remove the main plug from
the wall outlet, especially when left unused for a long period of time.
Protect the player from moisture(i.e. vases) , and excess heat(e.g.fireplace) or
equipment creating strong magnetic or electric fields (i.e.speakers...).
Disconnect the power cable from the AC supply if the player malfunctions.
Your player is not intended for industrial use.
Use of this product is for personal use only.
Condensation may occur if your player or disc have been stored in cold
temperatures.
If transporting the player during the winter, wait approximately 2 hours until
the unit has reached room temperature before using.
During thunderstorms, disconnect AC main plug from the wall
outlet.
Voltage peaks due to lightning could damage the unit.
Do not expose the unit to direct sun radiation or other heat
sources.
This could lead to overheating and malfunction of the unit.
The battery used with this product contain chemicals that are
harmful to the environment.
Do not dispose of batteries in the general household trash.

Range of Operation of the Remote Control
1
Insert two 1.5V AAA batteries, paying attention to the correct polarities (+
and –).
2
Replace the battery cover.

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.
Follow these precautions to avoid leaking or cracking cells:
• 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.
CAUTION
To open the remote control cover,
push the top of the cover, then slide
downward.

Ideal Speaker Placement
Front Speakers
Center Speaker
Rear Speakers
Subwoofer Speaker
Set the front speakers so that their tweeters (high-range) are
aligned at about ear level and at a horizontal angle of 45° to the
prime listening position.
Ideally the center speaker should be positioned with its top
surface flush with the front speakers. However, you may place
the speaker either on top or near the bottom of your TV set.
Vibration caused by the center speaker can disrupt the picture
if it is placed directly on the television. Put the center speaker
on a rack or shelf.
Place the subwoofer on the floor near the TV or mount it
on a rack, free from vibration and instability.
Set the rear speakers further back, parallel to the walls,
at 60 to 90 centimeters (2 to 3 feet) above prime listening
position ear level.
If the space behind the listening position is insufficient
(i.e., too close to the wall), place the rear speakers facing
each other on either side.
•
After installation is complete, tie up or taping down long, loose electrical cords.
•
Please refer to the KLIPSCH Operation Manual for details on using the speakers.

CONNECTIONS
FM antenna connection
1. Connect the FM antenna supplied to the FM 75
COAXIAL terminal as temporary measure.
2. Slowly move the antenna wire around until you
find a location where reception is good, then
fasten it to a wall or other rigid surface.
•
If reception is poor, connect an outdoor antenna.
Before attaching a 75 coaxial cable (with a standard
type connector), disconnect the supplied FM antenna.
AM(MW/LW)
antenna connection
1. Connect the AM loop antenna supplied
to the AM and terminals.
2. If reception is poor, connect an outdoor
single vinyl-covered wire to the AM
terminal. (Keep the AM loop antenna
connected).

A cooling fan is mounted on the rear panel of the center unit to
prevent abnormal temperature inside the center unit, thus assuring
normal operation. The cooling fan automatically starts rotating to
supply external cool air to the inside of the center unit when the
internal temperature exceeds the specified limit.
For safety, observe the following carefully.
• Make sure there is good ventilation around the center unit. Poor
ventilation could overheat and cause damage.
• DO NOT block the cooling fan and the ventilation openings or
holes. (If they are blocked by a newspaper or cloth, etc., the heat
may not be able to escape.)
Snap the tabs on the loop into the
slots of the base to assemble the
AM loop antenna.
