Before performing the  
network settings  
When your wireless LAN router (access  
point) is Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS)-  
compatible, you can easily set the network  
settings with the WPS button.  
If not, check the following information in  
advance, and record it in the space provided  
below.  
• The network name (SSID*) that  
identifies your network**.  
Although you can easily make settings,  
anyone can intercept wireless  
communication or intrude into your  
wireless network, even without any  
sophisticated tools. Keep in mind that there  
is a risk of unauthorized access or  
interception of data.  
x WEP  
WEP applies security to communications  
to prevent outsiders from intercepting  
communications or intruding into your  
wireless network. WEP is a legacy security  
technology that enables older devices  
which do not support TKIP/AES to be  
connected.  
• If security is set on your wireless

• Keep the system and discs away from  
components with strong magnets, such as  
microwave ovens, or large loudspeakers.  
• Do not place heavy objects on the system.  
• Do not place metal objects in front of the  
front panel. It may limit reception of  
radio waves.  
• Do not place the system in a place where  
medical equipment is in use. It may cause

Additional Information  
Precautions  
On safety  
• Should any solid object or liquid fall into  
the cabinet, unplug the system and have it  
checked by qualified personnel before  
operating it any further.  
• Do not touch the AC power cord (mains  
lead) with wet hands. Doing so may cause  
an electric shock.  
On operation  
On power sources  
If the system is brought directly from a cold  
to a warm location, or is placed in a very  
damp room, moisture may condense on the  
lenses inside the main unit. Should this  
occur, the system may not operate properly.  
In this case, remove the disc and leave the  
system turned on for about half an hour  
until the moisture evaporates.  
If you are not going to use the system for a  
long time, be sure to disconnect the system  
from the wall outlet. To disconnect the AC  
power cord (mains lead), grasp the plug  
itself; never pull the cord.  
On placement  
• Place the system in a location with  
adequate ventilation to prevent heat  
build-up in the system.  
• Although the system heats up during  
operation, this is not a malfunction. If you  
continuously use this system at a large  
volume, the cabinet temperature of the  
top, side and bottom rises considerably.  
To avoid burning yourself, do not touch  
the cabinet.  
• Do not place the system on a soft surface  
(rugs, blankets, etc.) that might block the  
ventilation holes.  
• Do not install the system near heat  
sources such as radiators, air ducts, or in  
a place subject to direct sunlight,  
excessive dust, mechanical vibration, or  
shock.  
On adjusting volume  
Do not turn up the volume while listening  
to a section with very low level inputs or no  
audio signals. If you do, the speakers may  
be damaged when a peak level section is  
suddenly played.  
On cleaning  
Clean the cabinet, panel, and controls with  
a soft cloth slightly moistened with a mild  
detergent solution. Do not use any type of  
abrasive pad, scouring powder or solvent  
such as alcohol or benzine.  
On cleaning discs, disc/lens  
cleaners  
Do not use cleaning discs or disc/lens  
cleaners (including wet or spray types).  
These may cause the apparatus to  
malfunction.  
• Do not install the system in an inclined  
position. It is designed to be operated in a  
horizontal position only.

communication  
Bluetooth devices should be used within  
approximately 10 meters (33 feet)  
(unobstructed distance) of each other.  
The effective communication range may  
become shorter under the following  
conditions.  
– When a person, metal object, wall or  
other obstruction is between the devices  
with a Bluetooth connection  
On your TV’s color  
If the speakers cause the color irregularity  
on your TV screen, turn off the TV then  
turn it on after 15 to 30 minutes. If color  
irregularity persist, place the speakers  
further away from the TV set.
