Caution

• If you choose to install the center speaker

on top of the TV, be sure to secure it with
putty, or by other suitable means, to reduce
the risk of damage or injury resulting from
the speaker falling from the TV in the event
of external shocks such as earthquakes.

• Make sure no exposed speaker wire is

touching the rear panel, this may cause the
receiver to turn off automatically.
