RQT9670 3PrecautionsTHE FOLLOWING APPLIES ONLY IN THE U.S.A.This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules.Operation is subject to the following two conditions:(1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and(2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.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 require this product to be used indoors for the frequency range 5.150 GHz to 5.250 GHz to reduce the potential for harmful interference to co-channel Mobile Satellite systems. High power radars are allocated as primary users of the 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 radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment and meets the FCC radio frequency (RF) Exposure Guidelines in Supplement C to OET65. 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).The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol, within an equilateral triangle, is intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated “dangerous voltage” within the product’s enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons.The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of important operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the appliance.CAUTION: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT REMOVE SCREWS.NO USER-SERVICEABLE PARTS INSIDE.REFER SERVICING TO QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSONNEL.CAUTIONRISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCKDO NOT OPENTHE FOLLOWING APPLIES ONLY IN THE U.S.A.FCC Note:This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules.These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. 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.Operation is subject to the following two conditions:(1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and(2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.Responsible Party:Panasonic Corporation of North AmericaOne Panasonic Way,Secaucus, NJ 07094Support Contact:Panasonic Consumer Marketing Company of North AmericaTelephone No.: 1-800-211-PANA (7262)SC-HTB351_RQT9670_mst.book Page 3 Thursday, December 29, 2011 1:39 PM

Getting startedRQT9670 9≥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 carrying the active subwooferTo 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).≥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.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∫When attaching the speakers to a wallThe 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 TVThe speakers may block or interfere with the TV’s various sensors (C.A.T.S.
