Important safeguards
Caution: Read this item carefully to keep
your safety.
1. Suff ocation - 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 suff ocation.
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. Modifi cation - Do not attempt to open or modify
the unit, for this could cause fi re hazard or
malfunction.
5. Cleaning - Do not use volatile solvents such as
alcohol, paint thinner, gasoline, or benzine, etc. to
clean the cabinet. Use a clean dry cloth.
6. Abnormal smell - If an abnormal smell or smoke is
detected, immediately turn the power OFF and
unplug the appliance from the wall outlet. Contact
your dealer or nearest service center.
Note on operation
1. The nominal impedance of the speaker system
is 6 ohms. Before using the system, check the
specifi cations of your amplifi er and receiver
to confi rm that they accept a load impedance
of 6 ohms.
2. The maximum input power that is allowed to
be input to this speaker system is 80 W. If an
excessive power is applied to the speakers,
the audio quality may be deteriorated or
malfunction may occur. In addition, heat
generation may rise the temperature of the
tweeters and the surroundings, causing burns
to persons touching them. Take special care in
the following points when using the system.
• Even when the output power of the amplifi er in
use is lower than the maximum allowable input
power of the speaker system, increasing the
volume too much will distort the amplifi er output
and causes an excessive input to the system. Be
sure not to increase the amplifi er volume too
much.

Important safeguards
• Do not increase the amplifi er volume too much
while the low- and/or high-frequency levels are
enhanced with the tone controls (BASS, TREBLE)
or loudness control of the amplifi er.
• Avoid applying continuously the inter-station
noise in FM broadcasting or a special signal
(one containing harmonics, etc.) such as that
generated during fast forwarding of tape to the
speaker system.
• Minimize the amplifi er volume when changing a
switch position or placing a stylus on an analog
disc.
Installation
On the Desktop or Shelf
Place the speaker on the desktop, shelf or a similar
level surface.
• The speakers are not fi xed on the desktop or shelf.
Be careful not to topple them down.
• Be careful not to have your foot caught by the
speaker wire.
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 produce 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 fi eld 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 located 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 larger distance.
