Introduction
Precautions
Installation
· Install in a place which is level, dry and neither too hot nor
too cold--between 5°C (41°F) and 35°C (95°F).
· Install the System in a location with adequate ventilation to
prevent internal heat buildup in the System.
· Leave sufficient distance between the System and the TV.
· Keep the speakers away from the TV to avoid interference
with TV.
Power sources
· When unplugging the System from the wall outlet, always
pull on the plug, not the AC power cord.
Moisture condensation
Moisture may condense on the lenses inside the System in
the following cases:
· After starting to heat the room
· In a damp room
· If the System is brought directly from a cold to a warm place
Should this occur, the System may malfunction. In this case,
leave the System turned on for a few hours until the
moisture evaporates, unplug the AC power cord, then plug
it in again.
Internal heat
· A cooling fan is mounted on the rear panel to prevent heat
buildup inside the unit.
Others
· Should any metallic object or liquid fall into the System,
unplug the AC power cord and consult your dealer before
operating any further.
· If you are not going to operate the System for an extended
period of time, unplug the AC power cord from the wall
outlet.
If anything goes wrong, unplug the AC power cord and
consult your dealer.

DO NOT install the System in a location
near heat sources, or in a place subject to
direct sunlight, excessive dust or vibration.
DO NOT handle the AC power cord with
wet hands.
For safety, observe the following carefully:
