Installations

TVs that can be placed on the unit:
– TVs weighing 30 kg (66.1 lbs) or less – TVs with a base width 545 mm (21-1/2")
or less
– TVs with a base depth 280 mm (11") or
less
– Flat-screen TV’s with a screen size 42
inches or less
The base of a TV should be centered on the top of the unit.
Place the unit on a flat surface such as on top of a TV cabinet, and then place a TV on top of the unit.
Cautions
• CRT TVs cannot be placed on the unit.
• If the TV base is too large to fit on top of the unit, place the unit in another location such as on an open shelf. In that case, make sure that the shelf is well-ventilated with enough clearance around the unit to prevent the heat from accumulating inside the unit.
• Place the unit so that it does not protrude from the TV cabinet’s edges.
• Do not place any device other than a TV on the unit. If a device such as a BD player is placed on the unit, a malfunction due to vibrations may occur, or the TV installation may become unstable. Furthermore, if a hard object is placed on the unit, it may cause scratches on the unit.
• Never fix the unit to a wall or other surface using a fall prevention device, such as wire or bracket, supplied with the TV. Doing so may cause the unit fall together with the TV if an accident such as an earthquake occurs. Read the instruction manual of your TV carefully and fix the TV to a wall or sturdy object following the instruction.
• The unit contains non-magnetic shielding speakers. Do not place magnetically sensitive items (hard disk drive, etc.) near the unit.
• Determine the installation location considering the connection with external devices (such as a TV).
Obtaining better surround sound effect
For better surround sound effect, refer to the following points when installing the unit.
Keep a distance of more than 2 meters (6.6 ft) between the unit and
listener.
Install the unit in front of the listening position.
