6 RQT7921 How you set up your speakers can affect the bass and the sound field. Note the following points. ≥Attach the included rubber pads to the base of the center and surround speakers. This prevents vibration from causing the speakers to move or fall over. Use 4 pads per speaker. ≥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. ≥Use only supplied speakers Using other speakers can damage the unit and sound quality will be negatively affected. ≥Set the speakers up on an even surface to prevent them from falling. Take proper precautions to prevent the speakers from falling if you cannot set them up on an even surface. Main unitNote Keep your speakers at least 10mm (13/32q) away from the system for proper ventilation. Center speaker≥Vibration caused by the center speaker can disrupt the picture if it is placed directly on the television. Put the center speaker on a rack or shelf. ≥To prevent the speakers from falling do not place the speakers directly on top of the television. Surround speaker∫Preventing the speakers from falling over Preparation Attach screw eyes (not included) to secure the speakers to the wall ≥You will need to obtain the appropriate screw eyes to match the walls or pillars to which they are going to be fastened. ≥Consult a qualified housing contractor concerning the appropriate procedure when attaching to a concrete wall or a surface that may not have strong enough support. Improper attachment may result in damage to the wall or speakers. 1 Thread the string (not included) through the slot on the rear of the speaker to prevent it from falling over. 2 Loop the string through the screw eye and tie tightly. Subwoofer Place to the right or left of the television, on the floor or a sturdy shelf so that it won’t cause vibration. Leave 10 cm (4q) at the rear for ventilation. Notes on speaker use≥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 receiving howling from 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. Caution Do not stand on the base and shake the speaker. Be cautious when children are near.

8 RQT7921 75 ≠ coaxial cable This cable carries broadcast signals to the television whether the unit is on or off so you do not need to connect the antenna directly to the television. But the picture and sound signal from this unit does not go through the 75 ≠ coaxial cable to the TV. Make sure you connect one of the following terminals on this unit to the TV; the VIDEO OUT terminal, the S-VIDEO OUT terminal or the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT terminal. If the TV has none of these terminals, consult your local dealer.To enjoy cable and satellite television Connection l44 Subscribe to a cable or satellite company. ∫Connecting a television with COMPONENT VIDEO IN terminals COMPONENT VIDEO OUT terminals These terminals can be used for either interlace or progressive output and provide a purer picture than the S-VIDEO OUT terminal. Connection using these terminals outputs the color difference signals (P B/CB, PR/CR) and luminance signal (Y) separately in order to achieve high fidelity in reproducing colors. ≥The description of the component video input terminals depends on the television or monitor (e.g. Y/P B/PR, Y/B-Y/R-Y, Y/CB/CR). Connect to terminals of the same color.≥After making this connection, change the black level for a better picture (l27, “Video ”— “Black Level Control”). To enjoy progressive video ≥Connect to the component video input terminals on a 480p compatible television. (Video will not be displayed correctly if connected to an incompatible television.) ≥All televisions manufactured by Panasonic and that have 480p input connectors are compatible. Consult the manufacturer if you have another brand of television. ∫Connecting a television with an S-VIDEO IN terminal S-VIDEO OUT terminal The S-video terminal achieves a more vivid picture than the VIDEO OUT terminal by separating the chrominance (C) and luminance (Y) signals. (Actual results depend on the television.)[Note] Connect to a different terminal group than that you used for the video cable (e.g., “VIDEO 2”). Picture from this unit’s VHS will not appear when you use the same group input terminal connections because the S-video terminal input takes precedence. If irregular coloring occurs on your television The supplied 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 television’s demagnetizing function should correct the problem. If it persists, move the speakers further away from the television. For better video from DVD The following connections are for video from the DVD section only. Make sure you have connected the VIDEO OUT terminal with the television to view video from the VHS section. You may need to change the video-input mode on the television to view video from the VHS and DVD sections. Read your television’s operating instructions for details.
