English Ⅵ How to connect speaker cables to the input and output terminals of the speakers For connections, keep the speaker cables as short as possible. Do not bundle or roll up the excess part of the cables. If the connections are faulty, no sound will be heard from the speakers. Main/center/rear speakers Rear center speaker (for NS-P236) One side of the provided speaker cable has a white broken line and the other side has no line. Connect the (+) terminals on both the speaker and the amplifier using the side with a white broken line. Connect the (-) terminals on both components using the side with no line. Before connecting Remove the insulation coating at the extremity of each speaker cable by twisting the coating off. Red: positive (+) Black: negative (-) White broken line How to Connect: 1 Press and hold the terminal's tab, as shown in the figure. 2 Insert the bare wire. 3 Release your finger from the tab to allow it to lock securely on the cable's wire end. 4 Test the firmness of the connection by pulling lightly on the cable at the terminal. Subwoofer (INPUT1/OUTPUT terminals) Connect the (+) terminals on both the subwoofer and the amplifier using one side of the cable. Connect the (-) terminals on both components using the other side of the cable.
