Getting started

Step 1 Selecting the placement method

• These are examples of placement methods.

When placing the speakers on a table

Caution

• The active subwoofer and supplied speakers are to be used only as indicated in these instructions. Failure to do so may lead to damage to the amplifier and/or the speakers, and may result in the risk of fire. Consult a qualified service person if damage has occurred or if you experience a sudden change in performance.
• Do not attempt to attach these speakers to a wall using methods other than those described in this manual.

Speaker system

• Do not hold the speakers in one hand to avoid injury by dropping the speakers when carrying.
• When placing the speakers on a wall
  The wall or pillar on which the speakers are to be attached should be capable of supporting 33 kg (72.8 lbs) per screw. Consult a qualified building contractor when attaching the speakers to a wall. Improper attachment may result in damage to the wall and
  speakers.

◼ When placing the speakers in front of the TV
The speakers may block or interfere with the TV’s various sensors (C.A.T.S. (Contrast Automatic Tracking System) sensor, remotecontrol sensor, etc.) and the 3D Eyewear transmitters on a 3D compatible TV.

• If the stands are being used
  Move the speakers farther away from the TV. If the TV still does not function correctly, try removing the stands.

• If the stands are not used
  Move the speakers farther away from the TV. If the TV still does not function correctly, try using them beside the TV ( 8).

Active subwoofer
The remote control signal sensor is located on the active subwoofer.

• Use the remote control within the correct operation range.

A Remote control signal sensor

• Remote control operation range
  Distance: Within approx. 7 m (23 ft.) directly in front Angle: Approx. 30₀ left and right

◼ When carrying the active subwoofer

B Do not hold the active subwoofer from this opening. The parts inside (speaker unit) may be damaged.
C Always hold the bottom of the active subwoofer when moving it.

• Place the active subwoofer in a horizontal position with the top panel faced upward.
• Placing the active subwoofer and the speakers too close to the walls, and corners can result in excessive bass. Cover walls and windows with thick curtains.
• If irregular coloring occurs on your TV, turn the TV off for about 30 minutes. If it persists, move the speakers further away from the TV.
• Keep magnetized items away. Magnetized cards, watches etc., can be damaged if placed too close to the system.

Step 2 Assembling the speakers
When placing the speakers on a wall

• For a safety measure to prevent the speakers from falling, refer to page 16.
• To prevent damage or scratches, lay down a soft cloth and perform the assembly on it.

1. Match the L/R indicator A on the speaker with the L/R indicator B on the speaker joint, then insert the metal part of the speaker joint fully into C.
   ● Do not connect the left speaker to the right speaker joint or vice versa. Be sure to verify the orientation of the speaker with the label on the rear of the speaker.

2. Use screws A to secure the speakers to the speaker joint.
   ● Keep the screws out of reach of children to prevent swallowing.D Screw A (supplied)
   ● Be sure to insert the screws following the order as indicated in the illustration.

   ● Insert the wire fully, taking care not to insert beyond the wire insulation.

4. Drive a screw (not supplied) into the wall.
   ● Use the measurements indicated below to identify the screwing positions on the wall.
   ●  Leave at least 20 mm (25/32q) of space above and each side of the speaker to allow enough space for fitting the speaker.
   ● The position in the wall where the screw is to be attached as well as the screw should be capable of supporting over 33 kg (72.8 lbs).
   ●  Keep the screws out of reach of children to prevent swallowing.A At least 30 mm (1 /16)
   B Ø 4.0 mm ( 5 3 /32)
   C Ø 7.0 mm to Ø 9.4 mm ( 9 /32 to3 /8)

Speaker fall prevention measures

To prevent the speakers from falling, it is recommended to attach the speakers to the wall or table with a fall prevention cord (hereafter “cord”).

• Consult a qualified housing contractor concerning the appropriate procedure when attaching to a concrete wall or a surface that may not have strong enough support. Improper attachment may result in damage to the wall or speakers.
•  Use a cord of less than Φ 2.0 mm ( 5/64), which is capable of supporting over 10 kg (22.05 lbs).
• Keep the screws out of reach of children to prevent swallowing.
•  Make sure that the slack of the cord is minimal.

  Do not connect the AC power supply cord until all other connections are complete.
  ◼ HDMI
  The HDMI connection supports VIERA Link “HDAVI Control” ( ****24) when used with a compatible Panasonic TV.

• Use High Speed HDMI Cables that have the HDMI logo (as shown on the cover). It is recommended that you use Panasonic’s HDMI cable.
  Recommended part number (High Speed HDMI cable):
  RP-CDHS15 (1.5 m/4.9 ft), RP-CDHS30 (3.0 m/9.8 ft), RP-CDHS50 (5.0 m/16.4 ft), etc.
