WARNING

BEFORE PLUGGING IN THE UNIT FOR THE

FIRST TIME, READ THE FOLLOWING SEC-

TION CAREFULLY.

AC outlet voltages vary from country to country.

Make sure that the voltage in your area meets the

voltage requirements printed on the unit's rear panel

(e.g., AC 230 V, 50 Hz or AC 120 V, 60 Hz).

The power cord plug is used to disconnect this unit

from the AC power source. Make sure that the plug

is readily operable (easily accessible) at all times.

Pressing the [ON/STANDBY] button to select

Standby mode does not fully shutdown the unit. If

you do not intend to use the unit for an extended

period, remove the power cord from the AC outlet.

5. Never Touch this Unit with Wet Hands--Never

handle this unit or its power cord while your hands

are wet or damp. If water or any other liquid gets

inside this unit, have it checked by your Onkyo

dealer.

Precautions--Continued

For British models

Replacement and mounting of an AC plug on the power

supply cord of this unit should be performed only by

qualified service personnel.

IMPORTANT

The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance

with the following code:

Blue:

Neutral

Brown:

Live

As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this

apparatus may not correspond with the coloured mark-

ings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as

follows:

The wire which is coloured blue must be connected to

the terminal which is marked with the letter N or

coloured black.

The wire which is coloured brown must be connected to

the terminal which is marked with the letter L or

coloured red.

IMPORTANT

The plug is fitted with an appropriate fuse. If the fuse

needs to be replaced, the replacement fuse must be

approved by ASTA or BSI to BS1362 and have the same

ampere rating as that indicated on the plug. Check for

the ASTA mark or the BSI mark on the body of the fuse.

If the power cord's plug is not suitable for your socket

outlets, cut it off and fit a suitable plug. Fit a suitable

fuse in the plug.

For European Models

Speaker Precautions

Placement

· The subwoofer cabinet is made out of wood and is

therefore sensitive to extreme temperatures and

humidity, do not put it in locations subject to direct

sunlight or in humid places, such as near an air condi-

tioner, humidifier, bathroom, or kitchen.

· Do not put water or other liquids close to the speakers.

If liquid is spilled over the speakers, the drive units

may be damaged.

· Speakers should only be placed on sturdy, flat surfaces

that are free from vibration. Putting them on uneven or

unstable surfaces, where they may fall and cause dam-

age, will affect the sound quality.

· Subwoofer is designed to be used in the upright verti-

cal position only. Do not use it in the horizontal or

tilted position.

· If the unit is used near a turntable, CD player or DVD

player, howling or slipping of sound may occur. To

prevent this, move the unit away from the turntable,

CD player or DVD player, otherwise lower the unit's

output level.

Using Close to a TV or Computer

TVs and computer monitors are magnetically sensitive

devices and as such are likely to suffer discoloration or

picture distortion when conventional speakers are

placed nearby. To prevent this, the SKF-560F and

SKC-560C feature internal magnetic shielding. In some

situations, however, discoloration may still be an issue,

in which case you should turn off your TV or monitor,

wait 15 to 30 minutes, and then turn it back on again.

This normally activates the degaussing function, which

neutralizes the magnetic field, thereby removing any

discoloration effects. If discoloration problems persist,

try moving the speakers away from your TV or monitor.

Note that discoloration can also be caused by a magnet

or demagnetizing tool that's too close to your TV or

monitor.

Do not place SKM-450S close to TV or a computer

monitor because they have no magnetic shield.

Input Signal Warning

The speakers can handle the specified input power when

used for normal music reproduction. If any of the fol-

lowing signals are fed to them, even if the input power is

within the specified rating, excessive current may flow

in the speaker coils, causing burning or wire breakage:

1. Interstation noise from an untuned FM radio.

2. Sound from fast-forwarding a cassette tape.

3. High-pitched sounds generated by an oscillator,

electronic musical instrument, and so on.

4. Amplifier oscillation.

5. Special test tones from audio test CDs and so on.

6. Thumps and clicks caused by connecting or discon-

necting audio cables (Always turn off your amplifier

before connecting or disconnecting cables.)

7. Microphone feedback.
