FRONT / CENTER / SURROUND SPEAKERS
In order to prevent damage to the speaker system resulting from
input overload, please observe the following precautions:
•When connecting or disconnecting cables, be sure amplifier
power is OFF.
•Do not use excessive amplifier volume if using a tone control
to emphasize high or low frequencies.
INSTALLATION PRECAUTIONS
•Do not install these units near a stove or other heating
appliance, or put them in a place exposed to the sun. Such
locations may cause the cabinet to change color and the

OPERATING GUIDE
S-FCRW2700
SPEAKER SYSTEM
The front, center and surround speakers supplied with
this system are magnetically shielded. However,
placing them extremely close to a television may result
in color distortion on the screen. If this happens, move
the speakers a little further away and switch off the
television for 15-30 minutes.
The subwoofer is not magnetically shielded and so
should not be placed near a TV or monitor. Magnetic
storage media (such as floppy discs and tape or video
cassettes) should also not be kept close to the subwoofer.

•Operating guide
Do not connect this speaker to any amplifier other
than the one supplied with this system. Connection to
any other amplifier may result in a malfunction or a
fire.
Do not attach the subwoofer and center speaker to the wall
or ceiling. They may fall off and cause injury.

CONNECTING YOUR SYSTEM
IMPORTANT:
Make sure all equipment is turned off before making any
connections.
FRONT / CENTER / SURROUND / SUBWOOFER
SPEAKERS
Correct wiring of your loudspeakers is essential for achieving
the best sound quality. Be careful to ensure proper polarity of
connection.
CENTER SPEAKER
SURROUND SPEAKERS
For best results the loudspeakers should be positioned at or
above ear level. Depending upon your room layout and
preferences, the left and right rear speakers should be
positioned on the side walls just the rear of the listening
position, or on the walls.
SUBWOOFER
Sound spreads in all directions in the very low frequency range.
Human hearing cannot easily detect the source of very low
frequencies.
Be sure to provide a space of at least 8 inches
(20cm) between the rear of the subwoofer and the nearest wall.
PLACEMENT AND FINE TUNING
FRONT SPEAKERS
For best results the loudspeaker should be positioned near ear
level and the loudspeakers separated a distance approximately
equal to the listening distance. Angling the loudspeakers inward
towards the listener will improve the image stability for non-central
listeners. Close proximity to a side or rear wall will enhance the
midbass performance, although too close (particularly a corner
location) and the bass may be unnaturally high and image
performance may be degraded.
The loudspeaker should be positioned below the TV. For best
results align the front of the loudspeaker with the front of the
TV. If the loudspeaker is placed under the TV and very close to
the floor, then tilting upwards may be beneficial.
CENTER SPEAKER ONLY

This is a standard multichannel surround soundspeaker setup
for optimal 5.1 channel home theater sound.
NON-SKID PADS
If the front, center and surround speakers are placed on a hard
surface, such as wood or tile place four non-skid pads (small)
on the bottom flat surface of the speakers.
If the subwoofer is placed on a hard floor, such as wood or tile,
place four non-skid pads (large) on the bottom surface of the
subwoofer.
CABINET MAINTENANCE
Use a polishing cloth or dry cloth to wipe off dust and dirt.
When the cabinet is very dirty, clean with a soft cloth dipped in
some neutral cleanser diluted five or six times with water, and
then wipe again with a dry cloth. Do not use furniture wax or
cleaners.
Never use thinners, benzine, insecticide sprays and other
chemicals on or near the cabinets, since these will corrode
the surfaces.
Wall-mounting the front and surround speaker
system
Attaching the brackets
•Make sure to tighten the supplied screw as securely as
possible when attaching the bracket to the back of the
speaker.
•Please do not attach the brackets to the center speaker.
Before mounting
•Remember that the speaker system is heavy and that its
weight could cause the wood screws to work loose, or the
wall material to fail to support it, resulting in the speaker
falling. Make sure that the wall on which you intend to mount
the speakers is strong enough to support them. Do not
mount on plywood or soft surface walls.
•Mounting screws are not supplied. Use screws that are
suitable for the wall material and that will support the weight
of the speaker.
Note
•If you are unsure of the quality and strength of the walls,
consult a professional for advice.
•Pioneer is not responsible for any accidents or damage that
result from improper installation.

S-FCRW2700
ANTES DE USAR
•Gracias por comprar un producto Pioneer.
•Para obtener el máximo rendimiento del equipo, lea esta
manual antes de usarlo.
ALTAVOCES FRONTALES / CENTRAL / SURROUND
Para evitar daños al sistema de altavoces a causa de una
sobrecarga en el nivel de entrada, tome las siguientes medidas
de precaución:
•Al conectar o desconectar los cables, asegúrese de que el
amplificador estáapagado.
•Si utiliza un control de tono para resaltar los agudos o
graves, no aumente demasiado el volumen del amplificador.
MEDIDAS DE PRECAUCIÓN DURANTE LA
INSTALACIÓN
ALTAVOCES FRONTALES / CENTRAL / SURROUND
•Ni instale estas unidades cerca de una estufa o cualquier
otro aparato de calefacción, ni las exponga a la luz del sol.
Si lo hace, las cajas de los altavoces se podrían decolorar y
las propias unidades se podría deteriorar.
•Los altavoces frontales, central y surround suministrados
con este sistema incorporan una protección magnética. Sin
embargo, si los coloca demasiado cercan de un televisor,
podría provocar distorsiones de color en la pantalla. Si así
fuera, aleje los altavoces y apague el televisor entre 15 y 30
minutos.
SUBWOOFER
•No coloque objetos encima de la caja.
•No derrame líquidos sobre la caja.
•Sitúe el subwoofer al menos a 20 cm de cualquier pared o
cortina para evitar la acumulación de calor.
•El subwoofer no incorpora protección magnética y, por lo
tanto, no se debe colocar cerca de un televisor o monitor.
Tampoco se deben dejar cerca del subwoofer soportes de
almacenamiento magnéticos tales como los disquetes,
casetes y cintas de vídeo.
ADVERTENCIA:
•No conecte este altavoz a ningún amplificador que no sea
el suministrado con el sistema. Si lo conecta a otro
amplificador, podría provocar fallos de funcionamiento e,
incluso, un incendio.
•No instale el subwoofer y el altavoz central en la pared o
en el techo. Podrían caerse y causar lesiones.
