About compatibility
This product is designed exclusively for use with the Pioneer
Plasma Display. For more information on compatibility, please
consult with your nearest Pioneer authorized dealer or service
center.
About installation and setting
·
If you want to move the Plasma Display unit, make sure
that you remove the speaker first. In addition, do not move
the display holding on to the mounting fittings. This can
result in injury or damage to the unit.
·
The speaker is wide, and may become unstable when
installed by a one person alone. This may result in injury
or product damage. Therefore, at least two people must
assemble and install them.
·
When installing the speaker, do not use any screws other
than those supplied, otherwise the speaker may come
off from the main unit and fall over.
·
When installing the speaker, tighten the screws firmly.
·
Please handle the speaker with sufficient care, as the
grille net and the cabinet can become damaged or broken
when they are subjected to strong external impacts.
·
Placing a CRT computer screen or CRT monitor near to
the speaker may result in interference or color distortion.
If this happens, distance the monitor from the speaker.
About the input
·
In order to prevent damage to the speaker system
resulting from input overload, please observe the
following precautions:
·
Do not use the speaker with anything other than the
specified Pioneer Plasma Display. Doing so may result in
damage or fire.
·
Be sure to turn the connected devices off and remove
the power cord from the wall outlet beforehand when
changing the connection or installation method.
·
When using a tone control function to greatly emphasize
treble sounds, do not use excessive amplifier volume.
