Installation Precautions - Pioneer VSX-520-S Bedienungsanleitung

Satellite speakers (S-11)
• Labels located on the rear of each speaker
indicate whether they are designed for front
or surround use.
• Speakers installed to the right and left
should be separated by about 1.8 m to 2.7
m distance. They should be installed at
equal distances from the television, and at
equal heights from the floor.
• Optional speaker stands can be purchased
to facilitate optimal mounting of the
surround speakers at or slightly above the
listener's ear height.
• The surround effect will be diminished if the
surround speakers are mounted at extreme
distances from the listener's position.
• The front speakers and center speaker
furnished in this system are designed for
use close to a CRT-based TV or color
monitor. However, if color distortion is
caused due to the installation, try turning
off the power to the CRT-based TV or color
monitor for 15 to 30 minutes, then turning
on the power again. The self-degaussing
function built into the CRT-based TV or
color monitor should help ameliorate the
effect of the speakers on the image. If color
distortion continues to be a problem,
separate the speakers farther away from
the screen. If magnets or devices emitting
magnetic fields are installed nearby, the
interactive effect with the speaker system
may cause color distortion in a CRT-based
TV or color monitor.
• Install the center speaker below the TV so
that the sound of the center channel is
localized at the TV screen.
• When installing the center speaker on top
of the TV, be sure to secure it with tape or
some other suitable means. Otherwise, the
speaker may fall from the TV due to external
shocks such as earthquakes, endangering
those nearby or damaging the speaker.

Installation precautions

• Do not place heavy or large objects on top
of the speaker. Doing so could provoke the
speaker to fall, causing damages or bodily
injury.
• Do not place the speaker on an unstable
surface, as doing so may cause the speaker
to fall and cause damage or bodily injury.
• Switch off and unplug your AV equipment
and consult the instructions when
connecting up components. Make sure you
use the correct connecting cables.
• Do not sit or stand on the speaker, or let
children play on the speaker. Doing so
could provoke the speaker to fall, causing
damages or bodily injury.
• Install the subwoofer in a well-ventilated
location where it will not be exposed to high
temperatures and high humidity.
• Do not place the subwoofer near stoves or
other heating equipment or at locations
exposed to direct sunlight, as these can
have an adverse effect on the cabinet and
internal components. Also, do not install
the unit where there is too much dust or
high humidity, as these can cause
malfunctioning or breakdowns. (Avoid
cooking tables and other locations where
the unit would be exposed to heat, steam
and soot.)
• Keep the subwoofer away from devices
such as cassette decks which are sensitive
to magnetic fields.
• Do not place cups, glasses, or other
containers with fluids on top of the units,
since the units may be damaged if the
liquid spills.
• The installation location selected should
have a sturdy floor surface. Mounting the
subwoofer on a long-pile carpet should be
avoided, since the carpet may touch the
driver's diaphram, causing distorted
sound.
• Please install the subwoofer away from the
antenna cable of the receiver, as noise can
be caused with installation close to the
antenna cable. In such a case, use the
subwoofer at a position away from the
antenna and the antenna cable, or when
playback of extra bass is not required,
switch off the power for the subwoofer.
• The front grilles on front/center/surround
speakers cannot be removed. Do not try to
forcibly remove them since doing so may
damage the grille.
• When mounting front speakers or surround
speakers on a wall surface, make sure that
the wall you intend to mount the speakers
on is strong enough to support them.
