The front speakers and the centre speaker are magnetically shielded. Therefore, they do not affect the display even you use them near the TV. However, some colour variation may occur, depending on the type of TV used.

If colour variation occurs...

Turn off the TV (from the power switch). After 15 - 30 minutes, turn the TV on again.

If the colour variation is still present...

Move the front speakers further away from the TV.

To mount the surround speakers on the wall

The design of the surround speakers allows them to be hung on the wall. Be sure to use the type and size of screw that is shown to the below.



Connecting the AC power lead

After checking all the connections have been made correctly, plug the AC power lead of this unit into the wall socket. If you plug in the unit first, the unit will enter the demonstration mode.

Notes:



The unit will start the tape initialisation when plugged in to the AC socket. During this process, initialising sound will be heard and the unit cannot be turned on. Wait until the process is finished.



Unplug the AC power lead from the wall socket if the unit will not be in use for a prolonged period of time.



Headphones

Make a hole in the wall using a drill.

Drive a wall mount plug into the hole using a hammer. Drive the

wall mount plug in until it is flush with the wall surface.

Drive one screw into the wall mount plug for each speaker.

Drive the screws, so there is about a 5 mm (3/16") space between the wall and the head of the screw.

Mount the surround speaker on the wall so that the screw head is

inserted into the slot on the surround speaker.

Cleaning the tape-handling parts



Dirty heads, capstans or pinch rollers can cause poor sound and tape jams. Clean these parts with a cotton swab moistened with commercial head/pinch roller cleaner or isopropyl alcohol.



When cleaning the heads, pinch rollers, etc., unplug the unit which contains high voltages.



After long use, the deck's heads and capstans may become magnetised, causing poor sound. Demagnetise these parts once every 30 hours of playing/recording time by using a commercial tape head demagnetiser. Read the demagnetiser's instructions carefully before use.
