[. . . ] When using the standard surround speaker setup as shown in step 3, please observe the following guidelines: · Install the main front left and right speakers at an equal distance from the TV. · For optimum effect, place the rear speakers slightly above ear level. [. . . ] This can cause batteries to leak, overheat, explode or catch fire. It can also reduce the life or performance of batteries. TV CONTROL SLEEP Precautions: · When installing the center speaker on top of the TV, be sure to secure it with tape or some other suitable means. Otherwise, the speaker may fall from the TV due to external shocks such as earthquakes, endangering those nearby or damaging the speaker. · Do not connect the supplied speakers with any other amplifier. · Make sure that all the bare speaker wire is twisted together and inserted fully into the speaker terminal. If any of the bare speaker wire touches the back panel it may cause the power to cut off as a safety measure. · The front, center and surround speakers supplied with this system are magnetically shielded. However, depending on the installation location, color distortion may occur if the speaker is installed extremely close to the screen of a television set. If this happens case, turn the power switch of the television set OFF, and turn it ON after 15 min to 30 min. If the problem persists, place the speaker system away from the television set. · The subwoofer is not magnetically shielded and so should not be placed near a TV or monitor. Magnetic storage media (such as floppy discs and tape or video cassettes) should also not be kept close to the subwoofer. · Do not attach the subwoofer to the wall or ceiling. They may fall off and cause injury. INPUT CHANNEL VOLUME MUTE VOLUME 1 3 2 AM loop antenna 1 2 3 5 Place the AM antenna on a flat surface and point in the direction giving the best reception.
