antenna discharge unit, size of  
grounding conductors, location of  
antenna-discharge unit, connection  
to grounding electrodes, and require-  
ments for the grounding electrode.  
See Figure A.  
18. An outside antenna system should  
not be located in the vicinity of over-  
head power lines or other electric  
light or power circuits, or where it  
can fall into such power lines or cir-  
cuits. When installing an outside  
antenna system, extreme care should  
be taken to keep from touching such  
power lines or circuits, as contact  
with them might be fatal.  
22. Power Sources. This product  
should be operated only from the type  
of power source indicated on the  
marking label. If you are not sure of  
the type of power supply to your  
home, consult your product dealer or  
local power company. For products  
intended to operate from battery  
power, or other sources, refer to the  
operating instructions.  
23. Grounding or Polarization. This  
product may be equipped with a polar-  
ized alternating-current line plug (a  
plug having one blade wider than the  
other). This plug will fit into the power  
outlet only one way. This is a safety  
feature. If you are unable to insert the  
plug fully into the outlet, try reversing  
the plug. If the plug should still fail to  
fit, contact your electrician to replace  
your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the  
safety purpose of the polarized plug.  
24. Power-Cord Protection. Power-  
supply cords should be routed so that  
they are not likely to be walked on or  
pinched by items placed upon or  
against them, paying particular atten-  
tion to cords at plugs, convenience  
receptacles, and the point where  
they exit from the product. To avoid  
safety hazards, use only the power  
cord supplied with your unit. If a  
replacement cord is used, make cer-  
tain that it is of a similar gauge. We  
do not recommend using extension  
cords with this product. As with all  
electrical devices, do not run power  
cords under rugs or carpets or place  
heavy objects on power cords. Dam-  
aged power cords should be replaced  
immediately, by a qualified service  
technician, with cords meeting fac-  
tory specifications. When discon-  
necting the power cord from an AC  
outlet, always pull the plug; never pull  
the cord.  
28. Damage Requiring Service. Do  
not attempt to service this product  
yourself, as opening or removing cov-  
ers may expose you to dangerous  
voltage or other hazards. Unplug this  
product from the wall outlet and refer  
servicing to qualified service person-  
nel under the following conditions:  
a. The power-supply cord or the plug  
has been damaged; or  
b. Objects have fallen, or liquid has  
been spilled into, the product; or  
c. The product has been exposed to  
rain or water; or  
d. The product does not operate nor-  
mally when following the operating  
instructions. Adjust only those con-  
trols that are covered by the oper-  
ating instructions, as an improper  
adjustment of other  
controls may result in damage and  
will often require extensive work by  
a qualified technician to restore the  
product to its normal operation; or  
e. The product has been dropped, or  
the enclosure damaged; or  
f. The product does not appear to  
operate normally or exhibits a  
marked change in performance.  
29. Object and Liquid Entry. Never  
push objects of any kind into this prod-  
uct through openings, as they may  
touch dangerous voltage points or  
short-out parts that could result in a  
fire or electric shock. Never spill liquid  
of any kind on the product. The appa-  
ratus shall not be exposed to dripping  
or splashing and no objects filled with  
liquids, such as vases, shall be placed  
on the apparatus.  
30. Heat. The product should be situ-  
ated away from heat sources such as  
radiators, heat registers, stoves or  
other products (including amplifiers)  
that produce heat. Avoid installation  
in extremely hot or cold locations, in  
an area that is exposed to direct sun-  
light or near heating equipment.  
19. Specifications: All product  
specifications/features are subject to  
change without notification.  
Passive Products:  
20. Amplifiers: Amplifiers used to  
drive these units must deliver a suffi-  
cient output power. A lack of output  
power may lead to amplifier-clipping,  
which causes damage not covered by  
guarantee.  
Active (Powered) Products:  
21. Ventilation. Slots and openings in  
the cabinet are provided for ventila-  
tion and to ensure reliable operation  
of the product and to protect it from  
overheating, and these openings  
must not be blocked or covered. The  
openings should never be blocked by  
placing the product on a bed, sofa,  
rug, or other similar surface. This  
product should not be placed in a  
built-in installation such as a book-  
case or rack unless proper ventilation  
is provided or the manufacturer’s  
instructions have been adhered to.  
Make certain that the proper space  
(more than 10cm) is provided both  
above and below the unit for ventila-  
tion. If the amplifier will be installed in  
a cabinet or other enclosed area,  
make certain that there is sufficient  
air movement within the cabinet, with  
means provided for hot air to exit and  
for cool air to be brought in.  
Do not obstruct the ventilation slots  
on the top of the unit or place objects  
directly over them. Remember, power  
amplifiers generate heat, and the  
heatsink fins and ventilation slots that  
form part of the cabinet are specially  
designed to remove this heat. Placing  
other electronic equipment near  
these heat-dissipation systems may  
possibly affect the long term reliabil-  
ity of both your amplifier and the  
objects placed above it. Do not place  
CDs, record jackets, owner’s manuals  
or other paper on top of or beneath  
the unit or in between products con-  
taining amplifiers in a stack. This will  
block the air flow, causing degraded  
performance and a possible fire haz-  
ard.  
25. Non-use Periods. The power cord  
of the product should be unplugged  
from the outlet when left unused for  
long periods of time.  
26. Lightning. For added protection  
for this product during a lightning  
storm, or when it is left unattended  
and unused for long periods of time,  
unplug it from the wall outlet and dis-  
connect the antenna or cable system.  
This will prevent damage to the prod-  
uct due to lightning and power-line  
surges.  
When positioning the product in its  
final location, make certain that it has  
adequate ventilation on all sides, as  
well as on the top and bottom.  
27. Overloading. Do not overload wall  
outlets, extension cords, or integral  
convenience receptacles, as this can  
result in a risk of fire or electric shock.

SPEAKER CONNECTIONS  
CONNECTION TIPS  
The (+) lead of the speaker  
wire is noted with a stripe. It  
is important to connect both  
speakers identically: (+) on  
the speaker to (+) on the  
amplifier and (–) on the  
speaker to (–) on the ampli-  
fier. Wiring “out of phase”  
results in thin sound, weak  
bass and a poor stereo  
image.

subwoofer, unscrew the  
colored collar until the pass-  
through hole in the center  
post is visible under the  
Separate and strip the ends  
of the speaker wire as  
shown. The wires supplied  
with the system may already  
be stripped and tinned for  
easy insertion into the  
speaker terminals. You may  
need to separate the two  
conductors further in order  
to thread them through the  
shelf stand or floor stand  
adaptor. Speakers and elec-  
tronics terminals have corre-  
sponding (+) and (–) termi-  
nals. Most manufacturers of  
speakers and electronics,  
including JBL, use red to  
denote the (+) terminal and  
black to denote the (–)  
collar. Insert the bare end of  
the wire through this hole;  
then screw the collar down  
until the connection is tight.  
The hole in the center of  
each collar is intended for  
use with banana-type con-  
nectors. To comply with  
European CE certification,  
these holes are blocked with  
plastic inserts at the point of  
manufacture. To use banana-  
type connectors requires the  
removal of the inserts. Do not  
remove these inserts if you  
are using the product in an  
area covered by the Euro-  
pean CE certification.  
With the advent of multi-  
channel surround sound  
systems, connecting all of  
the speakers in your system  
with the correct polarity  
remains equally important in  
order to preserve the proper  
ambience and directionality  
of the program material.  
To connect the supplied  
speaker wires to the satellite  
and center speaker termi-  
nals, press the red or black  
plastic cap for the desired  
terminal, insert the bare end  
of the wire into the hole
