to set this unit in standby

FOR NS-WSW40

• To assure the nest performance, please read this manual
carefully. Keep it in a safe place for future reference.

• Install this unit in a cool, dry, clean place - away from
windows, heat sources, sources of excessive vibration, dust,
moisture and cold. Avoid sources of humming (transformers,
motors). To prevent re or electrical shock, do not expose this
unit to rain or water.

• The voltage to be used must be the same as that specied
on the rear panel. Using this unit with a higher voltage than
specied is dangerous and may cause a re and/or electric
shock.

• Do not use force on switches, controls or connection wires.
When moving the unit, rst disconnect the power plug and
the wires connected to other equipment. Never pull the wires
themselves.

• When not planning to use this unit for a long period (ie.,
vacation, etc.), disconnect the AC power plug from the wall
outlet.

• To prevent lightning damage, disconnect the AC power plug
when there is an electric storm.

• Since this unit has a built-in power amplier, heat will radiate
from the rear panel. Place the unit apart from the walls,
allowing at least 20 cm of space above, behind and on both
sides of the unit to prevent re or damage.

Furthermore, do not position with the rear panel facing down

on the oor or other surfaces.

• Do not cover the rear panel of this unit with a newspaper,
a tablecloth, a curtain, etc., in order not to obstruct heat
radiation. If the temperature inside the unit rises, it may cause
re, damage to the unit and/or personal injury.

• Do not place the following objects on this unit:
– Glass, china, small metallic, etc.
If glass, etc., falls as a result of vibrations and breaks, it may

cause bodily injury.
– A burning candle etc.
If the candle falls as a result of vibration, it may cause re

and bodily injury.
– A vessel containing water
If the vessel falls as a result of vibration and water spills,

it may cause damage to the speaker, and/or you may get an

electric shock.

• Do not place this unit where foreign material, such as dripping
water. It might cause re, damage to this unit, and/or personal
injury.

• Never put a hand or a foreign object into the YST port located
on the right side of this unit. When moving this unit, do not
hold the port, as it might cause personal injury and/or damage
to this unit.

• Never place a fragile object near the YST port of this unit. If
the object falls or drops as a result of the air pressure, it may
cause damage to the unit and/or personal injury.

• Never open the cabinet. It might cause an electric shock, since
this unit uses a high voltage. It might also cause personal
injury and/or damage to this unit. If something drops into the
set, contact your dealer.

• When using a humidier, be sure to avoid condensation inside
this unit by allowing enough space around this unit or avoiding
excess humidication. Condensation might cause re, damage
to this unit, and/or electric shock.

• Super-bass frequencies reproduced by this unit may cause a
turntable to generate a howling sound. In such a case, move
this unit away from the turntable.

• This unit may be damaged if certain sounds are continuously
output at high volume level. For example, if 20 Hz-50 Hz
sine waves from a test disc, bass sounds from electronic
instruments, etc., are continuously output, or when the stylus
of a turntable touches the surface of a disc, reduce the volume
level to prevent this unit from being damaged.

• If you hear distortion (i.e., unnatural, intermittent “rapping”
or “hammering” sounds) coming from this unit, reduce the
volume level. Extremely loud playing of a movie soundtrack’s
low frequency, bass-heavy sounds or similarly loud popular
music passages can damage this speaker system.

• Vibration generated by super-bass frequencies may distort
images on a TV. In such a case, move this unit away from the
TV set.

• Do not attempt to clean this unit with chemical solvents as this
might damage the nish. Use a clean, dry cloth.

• Be sure to read the “TROUBLESHOOTING” section
regarding common operating errors before concluding that the
unit is faulty.

• Install this unit near the wall outlet and where the AC power
plug can be reached easily.

Notes on remote controls and batteries

• Do not spill water or other liquids on the remote control.

• Do not drop the remote control.

• Do not leave or store the remote control in the following
places:

– places of high humidity, such as near a bath
– places of high temperatures, such as near a heater or a stove
– places of extremely low temperatures
– dusty places

• Do not expose the remote control sensor of this unit to direct
sunlight or lighting such as inverted uorescent lamps.

• If the batteries grow old, the effective operation range of the
remote control decreases considerably. If this happens, replace
the batteries with two new ones as soon as possible.

• Do not use old batteries together with new ones.

• Do not use different types of batteries (such as alkaline and
manganese batteries) together. Read the packaging carefully as
these different types of batteries may have the same shape and
color.

Installations

Place the sound bar on a at surface such as on top of a TV
cabinet.
Place the subwoofer to the outside of the sound bar. To reduce
echoes from the wall, face the front side of the subwoofer slightly
inward.

Removing the stands

When the sound bar blocks the view of the lower part of the TV
screen or the remote control sensor of the TV, remove the stands
(18 mm [3/4”]) of the sound bar to adjust its height.

HINT

• Use the TV Remote Repeater function (p.9) to transmit TV remote control
signals via the sound bar.

NOTE

• Keep the stands and screws in a safe place for future use.

1 Attach the mounting template on a wall and mark for the

screw holes.

Cautions

• Do not place the sound bar on/under any other devices such as BD player
in a pile. Doing so may cause a malfunction due to vibrations.

• Do not touch the grille on the front and bottom of the sound bar.

• Place the sound bar away from your TV more than 50 mm (2”) so as not to
damage your TV with rear panel of the sound bar.

• Depending on your installation environment, it may be better to connect
the sound bar and external devices (such as a TV) before installing the
sound bar.

Attaching the sound bar to a wall

Cautions

• When installing the sound bar on a wall, all installation work must
be performed by a qualied contractor or dealer. The customer must
never attempt to perform this installation work. Improper or inadequate
installation could cause the sound bar to fall, resulting in personal injury.

• Do not attach the sound bar to a wall that is made of weak materials such
as plaster or veneered woods. Doing so may cause the sound bar to fall.

• Make sure you use commercially available screws that can support the
weight of the installation (specied in Step 2). Using clamps other than
specied screws, such as short screws, nails, and two-sided tape, may
cause the sound bar to fall.
