Rear Speakers
•
Place these speakers behind your listening position.
•
If there isn't enough room, place these speakers to 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.
•
Usually, it is placed by a corner near the front speakers.
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
speakers.
•
You can also install it directly over or under the TV.
Position of the DVD Player
•
Place it on a stand or 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 (6~8feet)
For 55" TVs 3.5~4m (11~13feet)

(L) and (R), to the
wireless rear amplifier.
1Insert the power plug into an outlet,
and then press the POWER button
on the front panel.
•
The Power Standby indicator will light up.
•
To turn off the wireless rear amplifier,
press the POWER button in Standby mode.
2
•
Do not connect the wireless rear speakers
to the speaker outputs on the back of the
main unit. Malfunction may result.
•
The wireless receiving antenna is built into
the wireless rear amplifier.
Keep the unit away from water and
moisture.
•
For optimal listening performance, make
sure that the area around the proposed
wireless rear amplifier location is clear of
any obstructions.
Connect the wireless
transmission antenna to
the back of the main unit
and tighten the nut by
hand.
1Raise the wireless
transmission antenna a
full 90 degrees.
2
Connecting the Wireless Transmission Antenna to the Main Unit
•
Do not apply a strong shock to the
wireless transmission antenna.
Breakage may result.
•
Do not touch the wireless
transmission antenna during
operation. Noise or interference to
communications may result.
•
Sound will be heard from the wireless rear speakers in
DVD 5.1-CH or Dolby Pro Logic II mode only.
•
In 2-CH mode, no sound will be heard from the wireless
rear speakers.
•
Place the wireless rear amplifier at the rear of the listening position. If the wireless rear
amplifier is too close to the main unit, some sound interruption may be heard due to
interference.
•
If you use a device such as a microwave oven, wireless LAN Card, Bluetooth equipment,
or any other device that uses the same frequency (2.4GHz) near the system, some sound
interruption may be heard due to interference.
•
The transmission distance of radio wave is about 33 feet but may vary depending on your
operating environment. If a steel-concrete wall or metallic wall is between the main unit
and the wireless rear amplifier, the system may not operate at all because the radio wave
cannot penetrate metal.
Reset the system if a communication failure occurs or if the synchronizing signal indicator does not light up
and the "REAR CHK" message blinks on the main unit's display because the wireless rear amplifier is not
recognized. Reset the system while the main unit and the wireless rear amplifier (SWA-1000) are in Power
Standby mode.
Resetting Wireless Communication
With the main unit turned off, press and
hold the remote control's WIRELESS for
4 seconds.
•
Press the button until the volume control indicator
lights up blue. (The indicator will turn off in 1 second.)
