Satellite speakers (S-11A-P) • Labels located on the rear of each speaker indicate whether they are designed for front or surround use. • Speakers installed to the right and left should be separated by about 1.8 m to 2.7 m (6 ft. to 8.9 ft.) distance. They should be installed at equal distances from the television, and at equal heights from the floor. • Optional speaker stands can be purchased to facilitate optimal mounting of the surround speakers at or slightly above the listener's ear height. • The surround effect will be diminished if the surround speakers are mounted at extreme distances from the listener's position. • Install the center speaker below the TV so that the sound of the center channel is localized at the TV screen. • Do not place the center speaker on top of the TV, the speaker may fall from the TV due to external shocks such as earthquakes, endangering those nearby or damaging the speaker. 4 En Installation precautions • Do not place heavy or large objects on top of the speaker. Doing so could provoke the speaker to fall, causing damages or bodily injury. • Do not place the speaker on an unstable surface, as doing so may cause the speaker to fall and cause damage or bodily injury. • Switch off and unplug your AV equipment and consult the instructions when connecting up components. Make sure you use the correct connecting cables. • Do not sit or stand on the speaker, or let children play on the speaker. Doing so could provoke the speaker to fall, causing damages or bodily injury. • Be careful to make sure children not to put their hands or any objects into the speaker duct*. *Speaker duct: A hole for plentiful bass sound on speaker cabinet (enclosure). • Place the center speaker at a safe distance from the child's reach. Otherwise it may result in the speaker falling down and causing personal injury and/or property damage. • Install the subwoofer in a well-ventilated location where it will not be exposed to high temperatures and high humidity. • Do not place the subwoofer near stoves or other heating equipment or at locations exposed to direct sunlight, as these can have an adverse effect on the cabinet and internal components. Also, do not install the unit where there is too much dust or high humidity, as these can cause malfunctioning or breakdowns. (Avoid cooking tables and other locations where the unit would be exposed to heat, steam and soot.) • Keep the subwoofer away from devices such as cassette decks which are sensitive to magnetic fields. • Do not place cups, glasses, or other containers with fluids on top of the units, since the units may be damaged if the liquid spills. • The installation location selected should have a sturdy floor surface. Mounting the subwoofer on a long-pile carpet should be avoided, since the carpet may touch the driver's diaphram, causing distorted sound. • Please install the subwoofer away from the antenna cable of the receiver, as noise can be caused with installation close to the antenna cable. In such a case, use the
