Simple Setup
Positioning
This unit comes equipped with a Dolby Virtual Speaker circuit installed. Using just the supplied speakers and the subwoofer, and by reproducing 
acoustic effects very similar to 5.1ch surround, you can enjoy  a true “home theater” experience even within a limited space.
How you set up your speakers can affect the bass and the sound field. Note the following points:
≥ Place speakers on flat secure bases.
≥ Placing speakers too close to floors, walls, and corners can result  in excessive bass. Cover walls and windows with thick curtains.
]Note]Keep your speakers at least 10 mm (13/32q) away from the system for proper ventilation.
Notes on speaker use
≥ Use only supplied speakers
Using other speakers can damage the unit, and sound quality will be 
negatively affected.
≥ You can damage your speakers and shorten their useful life if you play 
sound at high levels over extended periods.
≥ Reduce the volume in the following cases to avoid damage:
– When playing distorted sound.
– When the speakers are reverberating due to a record player, noise 
from FM broadcasts, or  continuous signals from an oscillator, test 
disc, or electronic instrument.
– When adjusting the sound quality.
– When turning the unit on or off.
CautionDo not touch the front netted area of the speakers. Hold by the sides.
If irregular coloring occurs on your televisionThe front speakers are designed to be used close to a television, but the 
picture may be affected with some televisions and setup combinations.
If this occurs, turn the television off for about 30 minutes.
The demagnetizing function of the television should correct the problem. 
If it persists, move the speakers further away from the television.

Conserving power
The main unit consumes a small amount of power, even when it is in 
standby mode (approx. 0.3 W). To save power when the unit is not to be 
used for a long time, unplug it from the household AC outlet. You will 
need to reset some memory items after plugging in the main unit.[Note]The included AC power supply cord is for use with the main unit only. Do 
not use it with other equipment. Also, do not use cords for other 
equipment with the main unit.
∫BatteriesDo not:≥mix old and new batteries.
≥ use different types at the same time.
≥ heat or expose to flame.
≥ take apart or short circuit.
≥ attempt to recharge alkaline or manganese batteries.
≥ use batteries if the covering has been peeled off.
Mishandling of batteries can cause electrolyte leakage which can 
severely damage the remote control.
Remove the batteries if the remote control is not going to be used for a 
long period of time. Store in a cool, dark place.
