SYSTEM SETUP 11 SYSTEM SETUP English FrançaisEspañol Connecting your TV to the Interface module After setting up the system speakers and Interface module, connect the audio output of your TV to the TV AUDIO input jacks on the Interface module, using the supplied stereo cable (Figure 12). Figure 12 Connections between your TV and the Interface module Using TV audio output jacks Audio output jacks are not standard on all brands of TVs. Some TVs have more than one set of audio output jacks; others have none. Use the guidelines below to help determine how to connect your TV to the Interface module. • If your TV has two sets of audio output jacks that are labeled FIXED (FIX) and VARIABLE (VAR), use the jacks labeled FIXED (recommended for the highest sound quality). If there is only one audio output jack labelled FIX/VAR (Out To TV, or Monitor Out, etc.), then you may need to find the $XGLR2XWSXWitem in your TV’s on-screen menu and select )L[HG. See “Selecting the FIXED audio output option on your TV” on page 13. • If your TV has only VARIABLE (VAR) audio output jacks, you can connect the Interface module to them. However, if you use the VARIABLE audio output jacks, you must be sure to turn off your TV’s internal speakers and turn up your TV volume. See “Turning off the TV internal speakers” on page 13. • If your TV does not have any audio output jacks, you can connect the CineMate ™ speaker system to the audio output jacks of another source, such as a DVD player or cable/satellite box. However, you will hear sound only from the connected source through your CineMate speakers. Connecting the power cord CAUTION: Do not plug the Acoustimass® module into an AC power (mains) outlet until the speakers and Interface module are connected. CAUTION: For dual-voltage models only, be sure to set the dual-voltage switch on the back of the Acoustimass module to the appropriate voltage for your area (115V or 230V) before connecting to power. If you are not sure about the proper voltage for your area, consult your local electrical authorities. 1.Insert the small connector end of the power cord into the AC input connector on the Acoustimass module (Figure 13). 2.Insert the large end of the cord into an AC power (mains) outlet.
