[. . . ] An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other electric light or power circuits, or where it can fall Figure A. Example of Antenna Grounding as per National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA 70 1. Install in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions. Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves or other apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat. [. . . ] Experiment with subwoofer placement by temporarily placing the subwoofer in the listening position and moving around the room until the bass reproduction is best. Place the subwoofer in that location. MOUNTING OPTIONS SATELLITES AND SURROUNDS On shelves. On the wall. Wall brackets are included. On optional stands (FS1000). WALL-MOUNTING Attach plate to wall. The brackets should be placed, if possible, so that the screws will fasten into a wooden wall stud. If that is not possible, use properly selected wall anchors. Slide speaker onto support.

Place speaker and support on wall plate. Make sure that at least 1/4" (6mm) of the wall plate metal shaft is inserted into the support cavity. Continue to firmly press the support onto the wall plate metal shaft until it is fully secured in place. MOUNTING THE SATELLITES ON OPTIONAL FS1000 FLOOR STANDS 3. 2. 1. 1. Attach the stand adaptor to the top of the stand upright with the pins toward the rear of the stand. Fasten the adaptor to the upright with the supplied screw. Place the loudspeaker securely on the stand by inserting the adaptor pin into the grommet on the bottom of the speaker. Connect the wire to the loudspeaker, remembering to preserve the polarity ("+" and "­") (see page 6). 5 SPEAKER CONNECTIONS CONNECTION TIPS Separate and strip the ends of the speaker wire as shown. The wires supplied with the system may already be stripped and tinned for easy insertion into the speaker terminals. Speakers and electronics terminals have corresponding (+) and (­) terminals. Most manufacturers of speakers and electronics, including JBL, use red to denote the (+) terminal and black for the (­) terminal. The (+) lead of the speaker wire is noted with a stripe. It is important to connect both speakers identically: (+) on the speaker to (+) on the amplifier and (­) on the speaker to (­) on the amplifier. Wiring "out of phase" results in thin sound, weak bass and a poor stereo image. With the advent of multichannel surround sound systems, connecting all of the speakers in your system with the correct polarity remains equally important in order to preserve the proper ambience and directionality of the program material. To connect the supplied speaker wires to the satellite and center speaker terminals, press the red or black plastic tab for the desired terminal, insert the bare end of the wire into the hole and release the tab. Gently tug on the wire to make sure that it is fully inserted. [. . . ] · Review proper operation of your receiver/amplifier and its surround sound features. · Make sure the movie or TV show you are watching is recorded in a surround sound mode. If it is not, check to see whether your receiver/amplifier has other surround modes you may use. · In Dolby Digital or DTS modes, make sure your receiver/processor is configured so that the surround speakers are enabled.
