Introduction

Thank you for purchasing a JVC product. Please read all instructions carefully before operation, to ensure your complete understanding and to obtain the best possible performance from the System.

Precautions

Installation
Install the System in a location with adequate ventilation to prevent internal heat build-up in the System. DO NOT install the System in a location near heat sources, or in a place subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust or vibration. Install in a place which is level, dry and neither too hot nor too coldbetween 5C and 35C. Leave sufficient distance between the System and the TV. Keep the speakers away from the TV to avoid interference with the TV.
