Thank you for selecting our speakers as part of your
high-fidelity system. We at KENWOOD are confident that
your choice will bring you years of rich listening pleas-
ure.
Please take the time to read through this booklet carefully. It
will help you to obtain the peak performance for which the
speakers were designed.
Introduction
Information on Disposal of Old Electri-
cal and Electronic Equipment (applica-
ble for EU countries that have adopted
separate waste collection systems)
Products with the symbol (crossed-out wheeled bin) can-
not be disposed as household waste.
Old electrical and electronic equipment
should be recycled at a facility capable of
handling these items and their waste by-
products.
Contact your local authority for details in locating a recy-
cle facility nearest to you.
Proper recycling and waste disposal will help conserve
resources whilst preventing detrimental effects on our
health and the environment.

Caution : Read this item carefully to keep your safety.
Important safeguards
1. Suffocation - After taking the unit out of the polyethylene
bag, be sure to dispose of the polyethylene bag out of the
reach of children. Otherwise, they may play with the bag,
which could cause hazard of suffocation.
2. Water and moisture - Do not place a liquid container,
such as a vase and water basin, on the appliance. Also
avoid installing the unit in a place subject to dampness.
3. Heat - Do not install the unit near a source of heat, such as
radiators, or under direct sunlight.
4. Modification - Do not attempt to open or modify the unit,
for this could cause fire hazard or malfunction.
5. Cleaning - Do not use volatile solvents such as alcohol,
paint thinner, gasoline, or benzine, etc. to clean the cabi-
net. Use a clean dry cloth.
6. Abnormal smell - If an abnormal smell or smoke is detect-
ed, immediately turn the power OFF and unplug the appli-
ance from the wall outlet. Contact your dealer or nearest
service center.
Note on operation
1. The nominal impedance of the speaker system is 8
ohms. Before using the system, check the specifica-
tions of your amplifier and receiver to confirm that
they accept a load impedance of 8 ohms.
2. The peak input power that is allowed to be input to
this speaker system is 120 W. If an excessive power is
applied to the speakers, the audio quality may be de-
teriorated or malfunction may occur. In addition, heat
generation may rise the temperature of the tweeters
and the surroundings, causing burns to persons touch-
ing them. Take special care in the following points
when using the system.
· Even when the output power of the amplifier in use is
lower than the maximum allowable input power of the
speaker system, increasing the volume too much will
distort the amplifier output and causes an excessive in-
put to the system. Be sure not to increase the amplifier
volume too much.
· Do not increase the amplifier volume too much while
the low- and/or high-frequency levels are enhanced
with the tone controls (BASS, TREBLE) or loudness con-
trol of the amplifier.
· Avoid applying continuously the inter-station noise in
FM broadcasting or a special signal (one containing har-
monics, etc.) such as that generated during fast forward-
ing of tape to the speaker system.
· Minimize the amplifier volume when changing a switch
position or placing a stylus on an analog disc.

Installation
About using speakers near a TV
This speaker include magnetic shielding and can therefore
be installed close to a TV set. Note, however, that placing the
speaker too close to a CRT type TV may in some cases pro-
duce distortion in the color reception. In such case, turn on
the TV and check that color reproduction is normal. If color
is distorted, turn the TV off for 15 to 30 minutes, then turn it
back on and check again. (This allows the TV's degaussing
circuitry to correct for the magnetic field from the speakers.)
If distortion is still present, move the speakers further from
the TV.
· If there is a source of magnetism, including a magnet, is lo-
cated in the proximity, its interaction with the speaker may
produce color irregularities on the TV screen. Be careful of
the installation layout.
· Due to induction by electromagnetic waves generated
from the TV set, the speakers may generate noise even
when the power switch of the stereo system is set to OFF.
In this case, install the TV set and speaker system at a larg-
er distance.
On the floor or shelf
Place the speakers on the floor or on a shelf or other horizon-
tal stable surface. Keep in mind that speakers are not fixed
into place, so be careful to avoid knocking them over.

Maintenance
Maintenance of the unit
When the speaker cabinets get dirty, wipe with the provided
cleaning cloth or with any soft, dry cloth.
Do not use thinner, benzine, alcohol, etc. for these agents
may cause discoloration.
