vice technician has used replacement parts specied by
the manufacturer or have the same characteristics as the
original part. Unauthorized substitutions may result in
re, electric shock, or other hazards.
• LOCATION:
If you use a stand, check the stand’s specications and
make sure that it is sturdy enough to support the weight
of the speaker. You may need to limit the number of
people around the placed stand, to avoid toppling the
device or causing damage to the internal components.
Also, be sure to keep the following cautions.
–Use the speaker stands with their legs fully opened.
–Mount only one speaker on each speaker stand.
–Tighten fastening screws securely.
–Remove the speakers from the stands before moving
the stands or adjusting their height.
–Add weight such as sand bags around the stand legs to
prevent them from falling over.
–Use the stand at a maximum height of 140cm (55”).
–If you use the socket of the GVX subwoofer to allow
mounting of a satellite speaker, use a pole 100cm max.
with an outer diameter of 35mm (1-3/8”).
–When transporting the device, always use two or more
people.
–Before moving the device, remove all connected cables.
–Do not use the speaker’s handles for suspended instal-
lation. Doing so can result in damage or injury.
–Do not expose the device to excessive dust or
vibrations, or extreme cold or heat (such as in direct
sunlight, near a heater) to prevent the possibility of panel
disfiguration or damage to the internal components.
–Do not place the device in an unstable position where
it may accidentally fall over.
• CONNECTIONS: Before connecting the device to other
devices, turn o the power for all devices. Before turning
the power on or o for all devices, set all volume levels
to minimum.
–Use only speaker cables for connecting speakers to the
speaker jacks. Use of other types of cables may result
in re.
–Be sure to observe the amplier’s rated load impedance,
particularly when connecting speakers in parallel.
Connecting an impedance load outside the amplier’s
rated range can damage the amplier.
