To adjust each speaker volume level for optimum listening experience.  
(1) Press LEVEL button on the remote control to select FL (front Left speaker).  
(2) Press or buttons to adjust the value up or down (between -10dB and +10dB).

Setting.  
Note:  
When connecting the speakers, make sure the polarities (“+speaker wire to+on the receiver)  
of speaker wires and terminals match. For example, red wire to red terminal on the receiver. If the  
cords are reversed, the sound will be distorted. Do not let the speaker wires touch each other, it

ahead of them.

Courtesy Dolby Laboratories  
1. Left, Right (Front Speakers)  
Front speakers carry primarily music and sound  
effects.  
2. Center  
In surround mode, the center speaker carries most  
of the dialog as well as music and effects.  
It should be set between the left and right  
speakers.  
Angle  
Place the left and right speakers to form a 45-degree  
angle with your favorite viewing position to dupli-  
cate the soundtrack mixer’s perspective.  
3. Surround (Rear Speakers)  
The surround speakers’ overall sound balance  
should be as close as possible to the front speakers.  
Proper placement is vital to establish an evenly  
distributed sound field.  
Height  
The three front speakers should be as close as pos-  
sible to the same height. This often requires placing  
the center speaker directly on top (A) or beneath (B)  
the TV set.  
4. Subwoofer  
A subwoofer is designed to reproduce powerful low  
bass effects (explosions, the rumble of spaceships,  
etc.).

Note:  
Center speaker provided with this unit is  
magnetically shielded to protect your TV  
set. It is not recommended to place speak-  
ers without magnetic shield near the TV  
set.

Connections and Setup  
No adjacent walls  
Better Surround Placement  
Surround speakers can go on stands facing each  
other to approximate sidewall mounting (A), or to  
the sides or rear of the viewing area, aimed upwards;  
they can go right on the floor, or preferably, a few  
feet off the floor such as on end tables (B).  
Location  
If possible, place surround speakers to either side of  
the listening area, not behind it.  
Height  
If space permits, install surround speakers 2-3 feet above  
viewers. This helps to minimize localization effects.  
Aiming  
Aim surround speakers straight across the room,  
not down at viewers, to help create a more open,  
spacious surround sound field.  
Test Tone/Channel Balance  
Channel Balance  
Your receiver is equipped with a test signal generator  
to help balance the audio level for each channel (see  
Page 8 for details).  
Level Adjustment and Surround Channel Level  
Expectation  
Alternative Surround Placement  
Even though you adjust the surround channel to be  
as loud as the others on the test signal, you may find  
that surround channels seems quieter for actual TV  
and Movie content. This is because producers use  
surround for subtle atmospherics and ambience,  
and only rarely for special effects.  
Rear wall  
If rear wall mounting is the only choice, aim the  
speakers at each other (A), towards the front (B) or  
towards the sidewalls (C, D).  
Experiment with placement until sounds seem to  
surround you, rather than come from behind you.

OPTICAL input provides a digital audio connection  
which will allow you to experience true digital  
surround sound, if the connected device is capable  
of providing Dolby digital surround signals. This  
unit will take the audio from the connected device  
and play the audio through the speakers.  
can be downloaded to the external memory (local  
storage) for enjoyment.  
In order to access BD-Live functions, the Blu-ray  
disc player must be properly configured for BD-

The USB device is used as the local storage.  
Make sure that the USB device is properly  
inserted into the Blu-ray disc player.  
Connecting Auxiliary Components  
Refer to Connecting AUDIO IN from external  
sources such as TV for details on connecting the  
auxiliary components to the unit (see page7).  
If there is not at least 100Mbyte of free space

Handling and Caring for Discs  
Precautions  
Handle your discs with care. Hold the disc with  
your fingers at the edges or through the hole.  
Insert the disc with the label facing up (for a sin-  
gle-sided disc).  
Place the disc properly into the tray in the allot-  
ted holder.  
Use a soft cloth to clean discs if necessary, always  
wiping from the centre to the edge.  
Always put discs back in their cases after use and  
store in a vertical position.  
Do not close the tray with two discs in it or with a  
disc not sitting correctly in the holder.  
Do not play cracked, chipped or warped discs nor  
try to repair them with adhesive tape or glue.  
Do not write on a disc.  
Do not move the unit when a disc is being  
played.  
Use  
If your unit has been stored in a cool place for any  
length of time, during a journey for example, wait  
for about 2 hours before using it.  
The openings located on the top and  
bottom are for ventilation and must not be  
obstructed.  
During thunderstorms, we recommend that you  
isolate the unit from the electrical supply so that  
it is not damaged by electrical or electromagnetic  
surges.  
This unit is designed for continuous use.  
Switching off the unit to standby mode does  
not disconnect it from the mains supply. To  
completely isolate the equipment, remove the  
plug from the mains jack as some components  
remain connected to the electrical supply.  
If you notice any burning or smoke, disconnect  
the unit immediately to avoid any risk of  
electrocution.  
Do not attempt to look inside the unit through the  
disk tray opening or any other opening. You may be  
electrocuted or exposed to laser radiation.

posed to direct sunlight, high humidity or high  
temperatures.  
Do not use aerosol cleaners, benzene, anti-static  
liquids or any other solvent for cleaning discs.  
When cleaning, wipe gently with a soft damp  
(water only) cloth from the centre to the edge,  
avoiding circular motions, which could cause  
scratches and interference during playback.

with BD, DVD or CD standards. This unit may not  
play some recordings or files due to differences in  
recording formats, software used and disc types.
