• Use only speakers with the same speaker impedance as
indicated by the speaker terminals on the rear of the System.
• The supplied speakers and subwoofer are magnetically
shielded to avoid color distortions on TVs. However, if not
installed properly, it may cause color distortions. So, pay
attention to the following when installing the speakers.
– When placing the speakers near a TV set, turn off the
TV’s main power switch or unplug it before installing the
speakers.
Then wait at least 30 minutes before turning on the TV’s
main power switch again.
Some TVs may still be affected even though you have
followed the above instruction. If this happens, move the
speakers away from the TV.
• DO NOT connect more than one speaker to
each terminal.
• DO NOT push or pull the speakers as this
will damage the foot spacers at the bottom
of the speakers.
