Safety precautions
Placement
Set the unit up on an even surface away from direct sunlight, high tem-
peratures, high humidity, and excessive vibration. These conditions can
damage the cabinet and other components, thereby shortening the unit's
service life.
Place it at least 15 cm away from wall surfaces to avoid distortion and
unwanted acoustical effects.
Do not place heavy items on the unit.
Voltage
Do not use high voltage power sources. This can overload the unit and
cause a fire.
Do not use a DC power source. Check the source carefully when setting
the unit up on a ship or other place where DC is used.
AC mains lead protection
Ensure the AC mains lead is connected correctly and not damaged. Poor
connection and lead damage can cause fire or electric shock. Do not pull,
bend, or place heavy items on the lead.
Grasp the plug firmly when unplugging the lead. Pulling the AC mains
lead can cause electric shock.
Do not handle the plug with wet hands. This can cause electric shock.
Foreign matter
Do not let metal objects fall inside the unit. This can cause electric shock
or malfunction.
Do not let liquids get into the unit. This can cause electric shock or mal-
function. If this occurs, immediately disconnect the unit from the power sup-
ply and contact your dealer.
Do not spray insecticides onto or into the unit. They contain flammable
gases which can ignite if sprayed into the unit.
Service
Do not attempt to repair this unit by yourself. If sound is interrupted, indi-
cators fail to light, smoke appears, or any other problem that is not covered
in these instructions occurs, disconnect the AC mains lead and contact
your dealer or an authorized service center. Electric shock or damage to
the unit can occur if the unit is repaired, disassembled or reconstructed by
unqualified persons.
Extend operating life by disconnecting the unit from the power source if it
is not to be used for a long time.

If irregular colouring occurs on your television
These speakers are designed to be used close to a television, but the
picture may be affected with some televisions and set-up combinations.
If this occurs, turn the television off for about 30 minutes.
The television's demagnetizing function should correct the problem.
If it persists, move the speakers further away from the television.
Note
The wall or pillar on which the speakers are to be attached should be
capable of supporting 5 k
C per screw.
Front speakers
Left and right front speakers are exactly same.
Surround speakers
Place either side of the listening position, or slightly to the rear, about 1
meter higher than ear level with the Technics logo facing toward the lis-
tening position.
The effect varies with the type of music and the music source.
If you are unable to position the surround speakers as recommended
You can put them near the front speakers and still achieve a surround-
like effect (
á page 26, VIRTUAL REAR SURROUND).
Attaching to a wall
Set the speaker onto screws and slide through bracket to lock into posi-
tion.
