Simple setup
Preparation
To prevent damage or scratches, lay down a soft cloth and perform assembly on it.
For assembly, use a Phillips-head screwdriver.
Make sure you have all the indicated components before starting assembly, setup, and connection.
There is no difference between the right and left speakers and pipes.
1 Attach pipes B to the bases.
A Insert pipe B.
B Secure pipe B to the base.
Ensure the screws are securely fastened.
2 Assemble the pipes.
A Thread the speaker cable from Pipe A through Pipe B
and the base.
For quicker threading, loosely fold the cable in half (do not
crease), pass the folded portion through the pipe, and then
pull the rest of the cable through the base.
B Join Pipe A to Pipe B.
C Secure the pipes.
Ensure the screw is securely fastened.
3 Attach pipes A to the speakers.
Slot the screw head in between the 2 stoppers of the speaker
groove.
Align the screw head with the speaker groove.
Ensure the pipe is fastened on straight by gradually tightening the right
and left screws alternately until fully tightened.
To prevent short-circuit, do not cover the connection terminals
with the pipe.
4 Connect the speaker cables.
5 Secure the speaker cable to the base.
[Note]
You can use the front speakers without assembling with the stands. In this case, attach the included
rubber pads to the base of the speakers. This prevents vibration from causing the speakers to move or
fall over. Use 4 pads per speaker.

How you set up your speakers can affect the bass and the sound field. Note the following points.
Attach the included rubber pads to the base of the center and surround speakers. This
prevents vibration from causing the speakers to move or fall over. Use 4 pads per
speaker.
Place speakers on flat secure bases.
Placing speakers too close to floors, walls, and corners can result in excessive bass. Cover
walls and windows with thick curtains.
Use only supplied speakers
Using other speakers can damage the unit and sound quality will be
negatively affected.
Set the speakers up on an even surface to prevent them from falling.
Take proper precautions to prevent the speakers from falling if you
cannot set them up on an even surface.
Main unit
Note
Keep your speakers at least 10mm (13/32q) away from the system for
proper ventilation.
Center speaker
Vibration caused by the center speaker can disrupt the picture if it is
placed directly on the television. Put the center speaker on a rack or
shelf.
To prevent the speakers from falling do not place the speakers
directly on top of the television.
Surround speaker
Preventing the speakers from falling over
Preparation
Attach screw eyes (not included) to secure the speakers to the wall
You will need to obtain the appropriate screw eyes to match the walls
or pillars to which they are going to be fastened.
Consult a qualified housing contractor concerning the appropriate
procedure when attaching to a concrete wall or a surface that may
not have strong enough support. Improper attachment may result in
damage to the wall or speakers.
1 Thread the string (not included) through the slot on the rear of the
speaker to prevent it from falling over.
2 Loop the string through the screw eye and tie tightly.
Subwoofer
Place to the right or left of the television, on the floor or a sturdy shelf
so that it won’t cause vibration.
Leave 10 cm (4q) at the rear for ventilation.
Notes on speaker use
You can damage your speakers and shorten their useful life if you
play sound at high levels over extended periods.
Reduce the volume in the following cases to avoid damage.
When playing distorted sound.
When the speakers are receiving howling from a record player,
noise from FM broadcasts, or continuous signals from an oscillator,
test disc, or electronic instrument.
When adjusting the sound quality.
When turning the unit on or off.
Caution
Do not stand on the base and shake the
speaker.
Be cautious when children are near.

one of the following terminals on this unit to the TV; the VIDEO
OUT terminal, the S-VIDEO OUT terminal or the COMPONENT
VIDEO OUT terminal. If the TV has none of these terminals,
consult your local dealer.

Connecting a television with COMPONENT VIDEO IN terminals
COMPONENT VIDEO OUT terminals
These terminals can be used for either interlace or progressive output
and provide a purer picture than the S-VIDEO OUT terminal.
Connection using these terminals outputs the color difference signals
(P
B/CB, PR/CR) and luminance signal (Y) separately in order to achieve
high fidelity in reproducing colors.
The description of the component video input terminals depends on
the television or monitor (e.g. Y/P
B/PR, Y/B-Y/R-Y, Y/CB/CR). Connect
to terminals of the same color.
After making this connection, change the black level for a better
picture (l 27, “Video”—“Black Level Control”).
To enjoy progressive video
Connect to the component video input terminals on a 480p
compatible television. (Video will not be displayed correctly if
connected to an incompatible television.)
All televisions manufactured by Panasonic and that have 480p input
connectors are compatible. Consult the manufacturer if you have
another brand of television.
Connecting a television with an S-VIDEO IN terminal
S-VIDEO OUT terminal
The S-video terminal achieves a more vivid picture than the VIDEO
OUT terminal by separating the chrominance (C) and luminance (Y)
signals. (Actual results depend on the television.)
[Note]
Connect to a different terminal group than that you used for the video
cable (e.g., “VIDEO 2”).
Picture from this unit’s VHS will not appear when you use the same
group input terminal connections because the S-video terminal input
takes precedence.
If irregular coloring occurs on your television
The supplied speakers are designed to be used close to a
television, but the picture may be affected with some televisions
and setup combinations.
If this occurs, turn the television off for about
30 minutes.
The television’s demagnetizing function should correct the
problem. If it persists, move the speakers further away from the
television.
For better video from DVD
The following connections are for video from the DVD section only. Make sure you have connected the VIDEO OUT terminal with the
television to view video from the VHS section.
You may need to change the video-input mode on the television to view video from the VHS and DVD sections. Read your television’s
operating instructions for details.

Tips for making WMA/MP3 and JPEG discs (For CD-R/CD-RW)
Discs must conform to ISO9660 level 1 or 2 (except for extended
formats).
This unit is compatible with multi-session but if there are a lot of
sessions it takes more time for play to start. Keep the number of
sessions to a minimum to avoid this.
When there are more than 8 groups, the eighth group onwards will
be displayed on one vertical line in the menu screen.
There may be differences in the display order on the menu screen
and computer screen.
This unit cannot play files recorded using packet write.
Naming folders and files
At the time of recording, prefix folder and
file names with 3-digit numbers in the
order you want to play them (this may not
work at times).
Files must have the extension:
“.WMA” or “.wma”
“.MP3” or “.mp3”
“.JPG”, “.jpg”, “.JPEG” or “.jpeg”
[WMA]
You cannot play WMA files that are copy protected.
This unit is not compatible with Multiple Bit Rate (MBR).
[MP3]
This unit is not compatible with ID3 tags.
Compatible sampling rate: 8, 11.02, 12, 16, 22.05, 24, 32, 44.1 and
48 kHz.
[JPEG]
To view JPEG files on this unit:
Take them on a digital camera that meets the DCF Standard
(Design rule for Camera File system) Version 1.0. Some digital
cameras have functions that are not supported by the DCF
Standard Version 1.0 like automatic picture rotation which may
render a picture un-viewable.
Do not alter the files in any way or save them under a different
name.
This unit cannot display moving pictures, MOTION JPEG and other
such formats, still pictures other than JPEG (e.g. TIFF) or play
pictures with attached audio.

Playback
Turn on the television and select the appropriate video input for the VHS.
[Note]
Pause stops after 5 minutes. Cue, review and jet search restart to
play after 10 minutes.
The tape moves at high speed during fast-forward, rewind, and jet
rewind so the unit will make a noise. Also, it takes some time for the

User memo:
Listening caution
Selecting fine audio equipment such as the unit you’ve just purchased is only the start of your musical enjoyment. Now it’s time to
consider how you can maximize the fun and excitement your equipment offers. This manufacturer and the Electronic Industries Association’s
Consumer Electronics Group want you to get the most out of your equipment by playing it at a safe level. One that lets the sound come
through loud and clear without annoying blaring or distortion—and, most importantly, without affecting your sensitive hearing.
We recommend that you avoid prolonged exposure to excessive noise.
Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing “comfort level” adapts to higher volumes of sound. So what sounds “normal” can actually be
loud and harmful to your hearing.
Guard against this by setting your equipment at a safe level BEFORE your hearing adapts.
To establish a safe level:
Start your volume control at a low setting.
Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and clearly, and without distortion.
Once you have established a comfortable sound level:
Set the dial and leave it there.
Taking a minute to do this now will help to prevent hearing damage or loss in the future. After all, we want you listening for a lifetime.
