Switch on the TV and set to the correct video in channel
(for example, EXT1, EXT2, AV1, AV2.) Refer to your TV
instruction manual for details.
➜ The default screen appears on the TV.
IMPORTANT!
– If you do not get a proper picture or sound,
please refer to “System Setup (DVD)” in order to
change the pre-settings as necessary to
accommodate your TV system or change to your
preferred settings.
– If you get a completely
distorted or black and white

using a PAL TV or NTSC TV.
Press N/P button on the remote
control to change between PAL
and NTSC in order to match the color system of
your TV. To change the default setting, go to
“System Menu” and change the “TV TYPE”,

Setting up the surround sound
system
You must connect all the speakers and set up the system
properly in order to enjoy the Digital Cinema experience at
home (refer to “Connections - Connecting the speakers
and passive subwoofer
”.) You will have the feeling of being
in the middle of the action because sound is coming from
everywhere around you. The subwoofer can enhance the
bass performance of your system dramatically.
IMPORTANT!
Please sit at your usual listening position in order
to set up the speaker balance correctly.
Placing the speakers
To obtain the best surround effect, place the speakers as
follows.
1 Place the front left and right speakers at equal distances
from the TV and at an angle of approximately 45 degrees
from the listening position.
2 Place the center speaker above or below the TV so the
center channel’s sound is localized.
3 Place the surround speakers at normal listening ear level
facing each other or mounted on the wall.
4 Place the subwoofer on the floor near the TV.
Helpful Hints:
– To avoid magnetic interference, do not position the front
speakers too close to your TV.
– If the rear surround speakers are installed farther away
from the listening position than the front and center speakers,
it will weaken the surround effect.
– All speakers should be securely installed to prevent
accidents and improve sound quality.
