Precautions
"General
!Please ensure that the equipment is positioned in a well venti-
lated area and that there is at least 10 cm (4") of free space along
the sides and back. There must also be a minimum of 15 cm (6")
of free space on the top of the unit.
!Use the system on a firm, level surface free from vibration.
!Keep the system away from direct sunlight, strong magnetic
fields, excessive dust, humidity and electronic/electrical equip-
ment (home computers, facsimiles, etc.) which generate electri-
cal noise.
!Do not place anything on top of the components.
!Do not expose the system to moisture, to temperatures higher
than 60°C (140°F) or to extremely low temperatures.
!If your system does not work properly, disconnect the AC power
lead from the wall socket. Plug the AC power lead back in, and
then turn on your system.
!In case of an electrical storm, unplug the subwoofer/amplifier unit
for safety.
!Hold the AC power plug by the head when removing it from the
wall socket, as pulling the lead can damage internal wires.
!Do not remove the outer cover, as this may result in electric
shock. Refer internal service to your local SHARP service
facility.
!The ventilation should not be impeded by covering the ventilation
openings with items, such as newspapers, tablecloths, curtains,
etc.
!No naked flame sources, such as lighted candles, should be
placed on the components of the system.
!Attention should be drawn to the environmental aspects of bat-
tery disposal.

Preparation for Use
System installation
!Magnetically shielded speakers
The front and centre speakers may be placed beside or near the TV
as they are magnetically shielded. However, colour variation may
occur, depending on the type of the TV.
If colour variation occurs...
Turn off the TV (from the power switch).
After 15 - 30 minutes, turn the TV on again.
If the colour variation is still present...
Move the speakers further away from the TV.
Refer to the user's manual of the TV for details.
Note:
The surround speakers and subwoofer/amplifier unit are not mag-
netically shielded.
!Placing the speaker system
The best surround effect will be achieved by placing each
speaker at the same distance from the listening position.
It is recommended to arrange the speakers as shown below.
Notes:
"
The default distance is set to 2 m (6 feet). If speakers cannot be placed
at equal distances, refer to "Speaker delay setting" (see page 52).
"Place the TV halfway between the front speakers.
"It is recommended that the centre speaker be placed near the
television.
"Place the surround speakers at a position just above the height of
your ears.
"You can place the subwoofer/amplifier unit anywhere you like. As
it vibrates whilst reproducing bass, place it on a stable, sturdy
surface.

images.
Set the video mode to "Interlace" (default setting). For the proce-
dure, refer to "Changing the video output mode".
