Location and Orientation
LSF-1010 (EN)
Location Precautions
Interference with AM Reception
The subwoofer utilizes digital circuitry to provide efficient signal amplification. Placing
the subwoofer too close to your AM receiver (AM tuner) may therefore cause interference
with AM reception. If you notice noise in your AM reception, you can correct the problem
by moving the subwoofer farther from the receiver.
Subwoofer and Satellite Speaker Magnetic Shielding and TV Color Reception
The speakers (subwoofer and satellite speaker) include magnetic shielding and can
therefore be installed close to a TV set. If installing close to a TV, however, be sure to
follow the procedure below. This will allow the TV's automatic degaussing feature to
correct for any magnetic field generated by the speakers. Neglecting to set the speakers
up according to this procedure may result in color distortion on the TV.
1 Switch off all power to theTV.
• The subwoofer will not produce interference if its power is off or if its volume is set
to minimum level. If interference occurs under these conditions, the problem lies
elsewhere.
2 Set up the speakers, and then wait at least 30 minutes before switching the
power to the TV back on.
• If you are using a freestanding indoor antenna (such as a loop antenna) with your AM
device, keep the antenna (and antenna wires) as far as possible from the subwoofer
(and subwoofer wires).
If color irregularities occur even after you have followed the steps above, move the
speakers farther from the TV.
• If using the speakers close to your TV, keep it well separated from other magnetic
sources. Interaction of an external magnet with the speakers may produce distortion
in TV color.
Separate
• Electromagnetism generated by the TV may cause the speakers to produce sound
evenwhilethestereoorAMdeviceconnectedtoitisoff.Youcancorrecttheproblem
by moving the speakers farther from the TV.
AM Antenna
Feedback (Howling)
KENWOOD
Installing the subwoofer too close to an analog record player may result in howling,
caused by feedback of sound into the player. You can correct the problem by reducing the
subwoofer volume or by moving the subwoofer further from the player.
In rare cases, feedback may also occur with cassette decks or with CD, minidisk, and DVD
players, producing howling or other types of sound or image distortion. Again, you can
correct the problem by reducing the subwoofer volume or moving the subwoofer.
CAUTION (SUBWOOFER only)
To ensure adequate ventilation and prevent risk of fire or damage from overheating,
please observe the following.
÷ Never place objects that would impair heat release onto the top of the
unit.
÷ Leave adequate open space on all sides. Minimum required open space
at each side (measuring from the greatest protection is as follows.)
Top panel : 50 cm
Side panel : 10 cm
Back panel : 10 cm

Other Ways to Set Up the Satellite Speakers
LSF-1010 (EN)
For information about how to remove/replace the screw caps and loosen the arm
screws, see page 16, “Getting Ready to Adjust.”
Clip-on Mount
Use the following procedure to clip the speaker onto an object other than the
base.You can clip to either a cylindrical fixture (such as a thin pipe) or a flat-edge
fixture (such as the edge of a bookshelf).
1. Remove the arm.
1 Loosen the two arm screws and pull
the arm out.
• Unplug the cord from the jack before
Conditions
removing the arm.
• If you want to change the angle of the
arm, set the arm holders to the appro-
If flat:
Width should be 12 to 15 mm (about 0.5 to 0. 6 inches)
If cylindrical: Diameter should be 12 to 20 mm (about 0.5 to 0.8 inches).
priate angle. For instructions, see
page 17, “Adjusting the Arm Angle.”
Loosen the screws.
2. Clamp the clip onto an appropriate object.
1 Unclamp the clip from the stand, and
clamp it onto an appropriate flat edge
or cylinder.
• If clipping to a flat edge, set so that the
entire rubber part of the clip makes
contact with the flat surface.
• If clipping to a cylinder, set so that the
rubber part fits (curves) around the
cylinder.
2 Gently push the clip up, down, right,
and left to confirm that it is securely
fixed in place and maintains its posi-
tion. Many objects are not suitable as
supports — either because the mate-
rial is not strong enough or because
the surface does not allow an adequate
grip. Do not clip to any object that does
not offer sufficient stability.

4. Connect the satellite speaker to the base of the stand using separately pur-
chased extension speaker cord.
• Use cord that has a mini-plug (3.5-mm) at one end and a mini-jack (3.5-mm) on
the other. Do not connect the wire from the speaker directly to an amp; the
connection must be relayed through the base.

Maintenance
LSF-1010 (EN)
Cleaning
Removing and Reattaching the Screen
You can clean the panel for subwoofer and satellite speaker and casing by wip-
ing with a soft cloth. Never clean with alcohol, benzene, paint thinner, or other
such solvents, as these may cause discoloration.
Use the following proceeding to remove or reattach the subwoofer's front
screen.
1. To remove the screen:
➀ Gently pull the bottom of the screen so that it comes free of the subwoofer.
➁ Hold the top of the screen and pull it, so that the screen comes off.
Contact Restorers
Never use contact restoring agents to restore electrical connections, as these
may cause the subwoofer to fail. Agents that include oil may in addition lead to
deformation of the plastic.
2. To attach the screen:
➀ Attach the top of the screen first. Hold the screen so that the pegs (at the
top right and left) are aligned with the corresponding holes on the super-
woofer, and push in to attach.
➁ Push the lower corners to attach the screen at the bottom.
