This device complies with Part 15 of FCC Rules and RSSGen of IC Rules.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) This device may not cause interference, and (2) this
device must accept any interference, including
interference that may cause undesired operation of this
device.
This transmitter must not be co-located or operated in
conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
This product is restricted to indoor use due to its operation
in the 5.150 GHz to 5.250 GHz and 5.725 GHz to
5.850 GHz frequency range.
FCC and IC require this product to be used indoors for the
frequency range 5.150 GHz to 5.250 GHz and 5.725 GHz
to 5.850 GHz to reduce the potential for harmful
interference to co-channel Mobile Satellite systems. High

5.25 GHz to 5.35 GHz and 5.65 GHz to 5.85 GHz bands.
These radar stations can cause interference with and/or
damage this product.
This equipment complies with FCC/IC radiation exposure
limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment and meets
the FCC radio frequency (RF) Exposure Guidelines in
Supplement C to OET65 and RSS-102 of the IC radio
frequency (RF) Exposure rules. This equipment has very
low levels of RF energy that is deemed to comply without
maximum permissive exposure evaluation (MPE). But it is
desirable that it should be installed and operated keeping
the radiator at least 20 cm (7 7/ 8q) or more away from
person’s body (excluding extremities: hands, wrists, feet
and ankles).

This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio
frequency energy and, if not installed and used in
accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful
interference to radio communications.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not
occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does
cause harmful interference to radio or television reception,
which can be determined by turning the equipment off and
on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference
by one or more of the following measures:
≥ Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
≥ Increase the separation between the equipment and
receiver.
≥ Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit
different from that to which the receiver is connected.
≥ Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV
technician for help.
Any unauthorized changes or modifications to this
equipment would void the user’s authority to operate this
device.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules.

Caution
≥ This system is to be used only as indicated in these instructions. Failure to do so may lead to damage to the
amplifier and/or the speakers, and may result in the risk of fire. Consult a qualified service person if damage
has occurred or if you experience a sudden change in performance.
≥ Do not attempt to attach these speakers to a wall using methods other than those described in this manual.
Speaker system
≥Use a screwdriver (i) for assembling the speakers.
≥Do not hold the speakers in one hand to avoid injury, you may drop the speakers when carrying them.
∍ When attaching the speakers to a wall
The wall or pillar on which the speakers are to be attached should be capable of supporting 33 kg (72.8 lbs) per screw.
Consultation with a qualified building contractor is recommended when attaching the speakers to a wall. Improper attachment
may result in damage to the wall and speakers, and personal injury.
∍ When placing the speakers in front of the TV
The speakers may block or interfere with the TV’s various sensors (C.A.T.S. (Contrast Automatic Tracking System) sensor,
remote control sensor, etc.) and the 3D Eyewear transmitters on a 3D compatible TV.
≥ If the stands are being used
Move the speakers further away from the TV. If the TV still does not function properly, try removing the stands.
≥ If the stands are not used
Move the speakers further away from the TV. If the TV still does not function properly, try placing them beside the TV (> 8).
Active subwoofer
 Do not hold the active subwoofer from this
opening.
The parts inside (speaker unit) may be damaged.
 Always hold the bottom of the active subwoofer when
moving it.
Wireless interference
To avoid interference, maintain the following distances between the main unit/active subwoofer
and other electronic devices that use the same radio frequency (2.4 GHz and 5 GHz band).
 Main unit/active subwoofer
 Wireless LAN: approx. 2 m (6 1/2 ft)
 Cordless phone and other electronic devices:
approx. 2 m (6 1/2 ft)
≥ Place the active subwoofer within a few meters of the main unit and in a horizontal position with the top panel faced upward.
≥ Do not use the main unit or active subwoofer in a metal cabinet.
≥ Placing the active subwoofer and the speakers too close to the walls and corners can result in excessive bass. Cover walls
and windows with thick curtains.
≥ If irregular coloring occurs on your TV, turn the TV off for about 30 minutes. If it persists, move the speakers further away from
the TV.
≥ Keep magnetized items away. Magnetized cards, watches, etc., can be damaged if placed too close to the active subwoofer
and the speakers.
