Loading batteries in the remote
control
Incorrect use of batteries may cause leakage or rupture.
Always be sure to follow these guidelines:
· Always insert batteries into the battery compartment correctly
matching the positive
ª and negative · polarities, as shown
by the display inside the compartment.
· Never mix new and used batteries.
· Batteries of the same size may have different voltages, depending
on brand. Do not mix different brands of batteries.
· When disposing of used batteries,
please comply with governmental
regulations or environmental
public instruction's rules that
apply in your country or area.
The remote control can be used
within a range of about 7 meters from
the remote sensor of the display unit,
and within a 30 degree angle.
Note
· In order to prevent battery
leakage, remove the batteries
when not using the remote control
for an extended period (one
month or more). If leakage occurs, carefully wipe away any
battery fluid inside the compartment, and replace the batteries with
new ones.
· Do not allow books or other objects to rest on top of the remote
control, since the buttons may be depressed, causing faster
exhaustion of the batteries.
Precautions:
· The remote control may not work if there is an obstacle between
the remote control and the display unit, or if the remote control is
not directed towards the remote sensor of the display unit at the
correct angle.
· The remote control may not work properly if strong light such as
direct sunlight or fluorescent light is shining onto the display
unit's remote sensor.
· The remote control may not work properly when this unit is used
near devices emitting infrared rays, or when remote controls of
other devices which use infrared rays are used.
On the other hand, the use of this remote control may cause other
devices to work improperly.
· When the operating range of this remote control becomes too
short, replace the batteries.
Speakers placement
Place speakers as shown below to achieve the optimum
surround sound effect.
Note
· Install the main front left and right speakers at an equal distance
from the TV.
· For optimum effect, install the rear speakers slightly above ear
level.
· This system's speakers are magnetically shielded (EIAJ), so there's
virtually no picture color distortion when they are placed near a
TV. In the rare event that there is some picture color interference,
switch power to the TV off, and wait 15 to 30 minutes before
switching on again.
· Install the center speaker above or below the TV so that the sound
of the center channel is localized at the TV screen.
· When installing the center speaker on top of the TV, be sure to
secure it with tape or some other suitable means. Otherwise, the
speaker may fall from the TV due to external shocks such as
earthquakes, endangering those nearby or damaging the speaker.
