PREPARATION ➤Installation En 9

Installation

Position the center unit and subwoofer as shown below with installation.

Wirelessconnections

The center unit and subwoofer communicate wirelessly. Subwoofer performance may be affected if the subwoofer is placed on a metal rack, or if there is a metal plate between the

subwoofer and the center unit. Use a wired connection to connect the subwoofer to the center unit if sounds are interrupted due to the installation condition (p. 15).

Cautions

• Be sure to install the center unit on a large, stable stand where it does not fall subject to vibrations, such as from an earthquake, and where it is out of the reach of children.

• Do not stack the center unit and subwoofer directly on top of other playback devices, or vice versa. Doing so may cause a malfunction due to heat and vibrations.

• Do not hold the speaker portion (fabric parts) on the front and the top of the center unit.

• The center unit and subwoofer contain non-magnetic shielding speakers. Do not place magnetically sensitive items (hard disk drive, etc.) near the unit.

• Depending on your installation environment, it may be better to connect the unit and external devices before installing the unit.

• The center unit can be installed on

a TV stand (p. 10) or mounted on a

wall (p. 10). It is equipped with

remote sensors positioned to

support installation on a TV stand

or mounting on a wall.

• To prevent sound reflecting off of walls,

angle the subwoofer slightly toward the

center of the room.

PREPARATION ➤Installation En 10

Position the center unit so that the keys are on the far side of the center unit.

About the TV remote repeater

The center unit receives signals from the TV’s remote control via the remote control

sensor located on the front panel. It then transmits these signals from the TV remote

repeater located on the rear panel.

HINT

• This function is available only when the TV’s remote control uses infrared signals.

• The TV’s remote control can be used even when the unit is turned off as long as the unit’s power cable is

plugged into an AC wall outlet.

Mount the center unit on the wall so that the keys face upwards.

Installing the center unit on a TV stand, etc.

Caution

Position the center unit more than 5 cm (2 in) away from the TV to ensure proper transmission of signals

from the remote control to the remote control sensor on the TV.

Mounting the center unit on a wall

Cautions

• When mounting the center unit on a wall, all installation work must be performed by a qualified

contractor or dealer. The customer must never attempt to perform this installation work. Improper or

inadequate installation could cause the center unit to fall, resulting in personal injury.

• To avoid falling the center unit, attach the center unit to a dry wall.

• Make sure you use commercially available screws that can support the weight of the installation

(specified in Step 2 on the next page). Using clamps other than specified screws, such as short screws,

nails, and two-sided tape, may cause the center unit to fall.

• Fix the cables in place where they will not become loose. If your foot or hand accidentally gets caught on

a loose cable, the center unit may fall.

• Do not lean on the center unit or apply excessive force to the top of the unit. Doing so may cause the

center unit to fall.

• Check that the center unit is fixed securely after the installation. Yamaha will bear no responsibility for

any accidents caused by improper installations.
