This unit reflects sound beams off of walls to create the surround sound effect. The position of this unit in relation to the listening position and walls is important to achieving the

desired surround sound effects. Refer to pages 5 to 7 when installing the unit. When installing this unit on a rack behind which there is limited space, for example, it may be easier to

connect external devices to this unit first. This will depend upon the installation location. See page 8 for information regarding the connection of external devices.

Notes

• Be sure to install the center unit on a large, stable stand where it does not fall subject to vibrations, such as from an earthquake, and where it is out of the reach of children.

• The subwoofer speaker is not magnetically shielded. Do not install hard disk drives or similar devices near the subwoofer.

• Do not stack the center unit and subwoofer directly on top of other playback devices, or vice versa. Heat and vibrations may result in damage or malfunction.

Recommended place for installation

• Install the unit in the center of the left and right walls.

• If the antenna is raised (p. 7), position the center unit so that

the antenna does not obstruct the TV screen.

• Attach the stands if the center unit does not sit high enough

(p. 6)*.

• The center unit can be mounted on a wall using the optional

Wall Mount Bracket SPM-K20. See page 19 in the Owner's

Manual.

* If the center unit will be installed on a TV stand, attach

the center unit stands to increase its height. Position the

center unit so that it does not obstruct the TV's remote

control sensor or signal transmitter for 3D glasses.

• The listening position (such as sofa, etc.) should be

located at the front of the unit.

• The distance between the listening position and the

unit should be more than 1.8 m.

Connecting the center unit and subwoofer via a wireless connection

The center unit and subwoofer communicate wirelessly. Subwoofer performance may be affected if the subwoofer is placed on a metal rack, or if there is a metal plate between the

subwoofer and the center unit. Use a wired connection to connect the subwoofer to the center unit if sounds are interrupted due to the installation condition. See page 29 in the

Owner's Manual.

Center unit

• To prevent sound reflecting off of walls, angle

the subwoofer slightly toward the center of the

room.

• When installing the subwoofer on a rack, be

sure the rack is strong enough to support the

subwoofer and that it leaves sufficient space

for heat discharge.

Subwoofer

• To achieve desired surround sound effects, be

sure that obstacles such as furniture may not
