    ∫Tapes
    ≥You can use tapes with the VHS and S-VHS marks, but this unit is 
    unable to make full use of the characteristics of S-VHS tapes.
    ≥Break out the tape’s tab to prevent accidental 
    erasure. Cover the hole with a double layer of 
    adhesive tape when you want to use the tape 
    for recording again.
    ∫S-VHS Quasi Playback (SQPB)

    and malfunction. Store your tapes carefully and discard when they 
    become dirty or damaged.
    Never use tapes on which juice has been spilt or those that are 
    extremely damaged since this will not only cause the heads to become 
    dirty, but will also make the unit malfunction.

    Simple setup
    Preparation
    ≥To prevent damage or scratches, lay down a soft cloth and perform assembly on it.
    ≥For assembly, use a Phillips-head screwdriver.
    ≥Make sure you have all the indicated components before starting assembly, setup, and connection.
    ≥There is no difference between the right and left speakers and pipes.
    1Attach pipes B to the bases.
    AInsert pipe B.
    BSecure pipe B to the base.
    Ensure the screws are securely fastened.
    2Assemble the pipes.
    AThread the speaker cable from Pipe A through Pipe B 
    and the base.
    For quicker threading, loosely fold the cable in half (do not 
    crease), pass the folded portion through the pipe, and then 
    pull the rest of the cable through the base.
    BJoin Pipe A to Pipe B.
    CSecure the pipes.
    Ensure the screw is securely fastened.
    3Attach pipes A to the speakers.
    Slot the screw head in between the 2 stoppers of the speaker 
    groove.
    Align the screw head with the speaker groove.
    Ensure the pipe is fastened on straight by gradually tightening the right 
    and left screws alternately until fully tightened.
    To prevent short-circuit, do not cover the connection terminals 
    with the pipe.
    4Connect the speaker cables.
    5Secure the speaker cable to the base.
    [Note]
    You can use the front speakers without assembling with the stands. In this case, attach the included 
    rubber pads to the base of the speakers. This prevents vibration from causing the speakers to move or 
    fall over. Use 4 pads per speaker.
    STEP1Front speaker assembly
    The supplied stands are specially designed for 
    attachment to Panasonic SB-FS730 front speakers. 
    Use only as indicated in this setup.

    ≥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.

    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

    ∫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.
