PREPARATION FOR USE (CONTINUED)
SPEAKER CONNECTION
1. Place the speakers in convenient locations on either
side of the unit. Usually a distance of five to eight feet
between speakers provides the best stereo effect, but
this may vary depending on the size and acoustics of
the room.
2. Locate the Speaker Terminals on the rear of the unit
and connect the solid black wires to the red (+) terminals
and connect the striped wires to the black (–) terminals.
3. To connect the speakers, press the terminal down, insert
the speaker wire and press the terminal back to the lock
position.
4. Pull lightly on the connection to make sure it is secure.
5. Connect the Speaker Light cable to the Speaker Light
jacks. These will light up the logo on the speakers.
CAUTION: Only connect the speakers which are supplied
with the unit. The use of any other or additional speakers
may cause damage to the unit. Never operate the unit
without the speakers connected.
