• If you place a speaker near your TV set, screen color may be distorted because of the magnetic field generated
by the speaker. If this occurs, place the speaker away from your TV set.
1 Press down the terminal tab on the back of the speaker.
2 Insert the black wire into the black terminal (–) and the red wire
into the red (+) terminal, and then release the tab.
3 Connect the connecting plugs to the back of the Home Theater.
• Make sure the colors of the speaker terminals match the colors of
the connecting plugs.
• Do not let children play with or near the speakers. They could get hurt if a speaker falls.
• When connecting the speaker wires to the speakers, make sure that the polarity (+/–) is correct.
• Keep the subwoofer speaker out of reach of children so as to prevent children from inserting their hands or alien
substances into the duct (hole) of the subwoofer speaker.
• Do not hang the subwoofer on the wall through the duct (hole).

Connecting the Speakers
Rear Speakers
• Place these speakers behind your listening position.
• If there isn't enough room, place these speakers so they
face each other.
• Place them about 60 to 90cm (2 to 3feet) above your ear,
facing slightly downward.
* Unlike the front and center speakers, the rear speakers
are used to handle mainly sound effects and sound will
not come from them all the time.
Subwoofer
• The position of the subwoofer is not so critical.
Place it anywhere you like.
Front Speakers
• Place these speakers in front of your listening position,
facing inwards (about 45°) toward you.
• Place the speakers so that their tweeters will be at the
same height as your ear.
• Align the front face of the front speakers with the front face
of the center speaker or place them slightly in front of the
center speakers.
Center Speaker
• It is best to install it at the same height as the front speak-
ers.
• You can also install it directly over or under the TV.
Position of the Home Theater
• Place it on a stand, cabinet shelf, or under the TV stand.
Selecting the Listening Position
The listening position should be located about 2.5 to 3 times
the distance of the TV's screen size away from the TV.
Example : For 32" TVs 2~2.4m (6~8 feet)
For 55" TVs 3.5~4m (11~13 feet)
Before moving or installing the product, be sure to turn off the power and disconnect the power cord.
