Installation and connections
How to install
A speaker’s playback sound is delicately influenced by
conditions in the listening room. To produce optimum listening
conditions, take due consideration of the conditions of your
installation location before beginning actual installation.
• Place the speakers at ear level.
• For a natural stereo effect, the right and left speakers should
be installed in symmetrical and equidistant positions from the
listening position.
• To prevent sliding, apply the supplied cushions to the bottom
of the speakers.
WARNING
Store small parts out of the reach of
children and infants. If accidentally
swallowed, contact a doctor
immediately.

• The speakers should ideally be placed at an angle of 30° to
the left and right (for a total of 60°) from the listening position,
and facing inward.

VENTILATION CAUTION
When installing this unit, make sure to leave space around the
unit for ventilation to improve heat radiation (at least
15 cm at top, 15 cm at rear
, and 15 cm at each side).

CAUTION
• After connecting to the terminals, lightly pull the speaker cord to make sure that heads of the speaker cord are securely connected to the
terminals. A loose connection might cause audio output to be interrupted or noise to be output.
• When connecting the speaker cord, thoroughly twist the core wires, and make sure that the core wires are not protruding out of the speaker
terminals. Core wires protruding out of the speaker terminals may come into contact with the rear panel or with each other. This may cause an
excessive load to be placed on the amplifier which results in operation stopping or a malfunction.
• If a mistake is made with the polarities (+, -) on the LEFT and RIGHT sides when connecting the LEFT and RIGHT speaker cord, normal
stereo effect can no longer be obtained.
Listening to the music of a Bluetooth device
These speakers allow you to wirelessly enjoy tracks saved to a Bluetooth device.
When using the speakers connected with a Bluetooth device for the first time or when connected with another Bluetooth device, you
need to pair the speakers and a Bluetooth device.
Pairing (device mutual registration) is the operation required to connect a Bluetooth device and the speakers.
Pairing and connection procedure
1 Turn on the [POWER] switch on the speaker.
• The Paring indicator flashes for approximately 30 seconds and the speakers enter Pairing mode.
• If the Pairing indicator is off, press and hold the pairing button for at least 2 seconds to switch to Pairing mode again.
2 Perform the pairing procedure on a Bluetooth device.
Perform the pairing procedure on a Bluetooth device while the speakers are in paring mode. For details, see the instruction
manual of your Bluetooth device.
3 The Pairing indicator on the speaker stops blinking and lights up when the connection is complete.
The Pairing indicator turns off if the speakers can’t pair with a Bluetooth device within 30 seconds.
• A Bluetooth device that has already been paired can be connected by performing the connection procedure on the Bluetooth device side if
the speakers are powered on.
Playback
When you play music on a connected Bluetooth device, the music playing on the Bluetooth device is output from the speakers.
• You can play/pause a track playing on a Bluetooth device by pressing the pairing button. (same function as the pause/play button on the
Bluetooth device).
CAUTION
• When pairing (connecting), move the
Bluetooth device close to the speakers.
• Loud sound may be output when the playback operation is performed for the first time after connecting completes so we recommend lowering
the volume before playback.
• The pause/play operation may not be possible with the pairing button depending on the application used.
• Connecting with the speakers may not be possible depending on the
Bluetooth device.
• If you wish to pair the speakers with a different
Bluetooth device, turn off the Bluetooth function of the currently connected Bluetooth device or
disconnect the connection before performing the pairing operation.
• The speakers store the pairing information of up to eight
Bluetooth devices, and attempt to connect to the last paired device if the pairing
button is pressed in the state of no connection with a
Bluetooth device.
