PRECAUTIONS

Read this before using the speakers.
To assure the finest performance, please read this manual carefully. Keep it in a safe place for future reference.
Install the speakers 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 fire or electrical shock, do not expose the speakers to rain or water.
To prevent the enclosure from warping or discoloring, do not place the speakers where they will be exposed to direct sunlight or excessive humidity.
Do not place the following objects on the speakers: Glass, china, etc.
If glass etc. falls by vibrations and breaks, it may cause personal injury.
A burning candle etc.
If the candle falls by vibrations, it may cause fire and personal injury.
A vessel with water in it
If the vessel falls by vibrations and water spills, it may cause damage to the speakers, and/or you may get an electric shock.
Do not place the speakers where foreign objects such as water drips might fall. It might cause a fire, damage to the speakers, and/or personal injury.
Speaker System
Do not place the speakers where they are liable to be knocked over or struck by falling objects. Stable placement will also ensure better sound performance.
Placing the speakers on the same shelf or rack as the turntable can result in feedback.
Any time you note distortion, reduce the volume control on your amplifier to a lower setting. Never allow your amplifier to be driven into “clipping”. Otherwise the speakers may be damaged.
When using an amplifier with a rated output power higher than the nominal input power of the speakers, care should be taken never to exceed the speakers’ maximum input.
Do not attempt to clean the speakers with chemical solvents as this might damage the finish. Use a clean, dry cloth.
Do not attempt to modify or fix the speakers. Contact qualified YAMAHA service personnel when any service is needed. The cabinet should never be opened for any reasons.
Secure placement or installation is the owner’s responsibility. YAMAHA shall not be liable for any accident caused by improper placement or installation of speakers.

PLACING THE SPEAKER

Place the center speaker on the floor under the TV or inside the TV rack so that it is stabilized. The center speaker should be set in alignment with the center of the TV screen. The positioning of the center speaker is important, because it controls the whole sound quality of a multi channel system. Set up the center speaker on the basis of your listening position by following the owner’s manual supplied with your amplifier.
IMPORTANT Do not place the center speaker on top of the TV. If placed, the speaker may fall and possibly cause damage or personal injury.
Note This speaker features a magnetically shielded design, but there is still a chance that placing it too close to a TV set might impair picture color. Should this happen, move the speaker away from the TV set.

and the speaker using one side of the cable. Connect the (–) terminals on both components using the other side of the cable.
• Connect the speaker to the center terminals of your
amplifier, making sure not to reverse the polarity (+, –). If the speaker is connected with reversed polarity, the sound will be unnatural and lack bass.
