Precautions On safety • Before operating the system, be sure that the operating voltage of the system is identical with that of your local power supply. • The unit is not disconnected from the AC power source (mains) as long as it is connected to the wall outlet, even if the unit itself has been turned off. • Unplug the system from the wall outlet if it is not to be used for an extended period of time. To disconnect the cord, pull the cord by grasping the plug. Never pull the cord itself. • Should any liquid or solid object fall into the system, unplug the system's power cord and have the system checked by qualified personnel before operating it any further. • AC power cord must be changed only at the qualified service shop. On operation • Do not drive the speaker system with a continuous wattage exceeding the maximum input power of the system. • If the polarity of the speaker connections are not correct, the bass tones will be weak and the position of the various instruments obscure. • Contact between bare speaker wires at the speaker terminals may result in a short-circuit. • Before connecting, turn off the amplifier to avoid damaging the speaker system. • The speaker grille cannot be removed. Do not attempt to remove the grille on the speaker system. If you try to remove it, you may damage the speaker. If you encounter color irregularity on a nearby TV screen This speaker system is magnetically shielded to allow it to be installed near a TV set. However, color irregularities may still be observed on certain types of TV sets. If color irregularity is observed... c Turn off the TV set once, then turn it on again after 15 to 30 minutes. If color irregularity is observed again... c Place the speakers further away from the TV set. If howling occurs Reposition the speakers or turn down the volume on the amplifier. 8
