BEFORE USE

Thank you for buying this Pioneer product.

Please read through this operating guide before using your

speaker system to optimize performance.

FRONT / CENTER / SURROUND SPEAKERS

In order to prevent damage to the speaker system resulting

from input overload, please observe the following precautions:

When connecting or disconnecting cables, be sure amplifier

power is OFF.

Do not use excessive amplifier volume if using a tone control

to emphasize high or low frequencies.

INSTALLATION PRECAUTIONS

FRONT / CENTER / SURROUND SPEAKERS

Do not install these units near a stove or other heating

appliance, or put them in a place exposed to the sun. Such

locations may cause the cabinet to change color and the

speaker system to break down.

The front, center and surround speakers supplied with this

system are magnetically shielded. However, placing them

extremely close to a television may result in color distortion on

the screen. If this happens, move the speakers a little further

away and switch off the television for 15 to 30 minutes.

SUBWOOFER

Do not place anything on top of the cabinet.

Do not spill liquid on the cabinet.

Place the subwoofer at least 8 inches from any wall or

curtain in order to avoid heat build-up.

The subwoofer is not magnetically shielded and so should

not be placed near a TV or monitor. Magnetic storage media

(such as floppy discs and tape or video cassettes) should

also not be kept close to the subwoofer.

CONNECTING YOUR SYSTEM

IMPORTANT:

Make sure all equipment is turned off before making any

connections.

FRONT / CENTER / SURROUND / SUBWOOFER

SPEAKERS

Correct wiring of your loudspeakers is essential for achieving

the best sound quality. Be careful to ensure proper polarity of

connection.

Twist and pull off the protective shields on each wire.

Connect to the speaker terminals on the rear of the

receiver.

To connect, insert the colored wire into the matching positive

(colored) terminal and the other wire into the negative (black)

terminal as shown below.

Note that the color-coded tabs are as follows:

· Red : Front right (R)

· Purple : Subwoofer

· White : Front left (L)

· Grey : Surround right (R)

· Green : Center speaker

· Blue : Surround left (L)

Connect the speaker cords to the input terminals at the

rear of speaker.

Match the colored wire with the color-coded label (above the

tabs), then insert the colored wire into the red (+) tab and the

other wire with the black () tab.

PLACEMENT AND FINE TUNING

SUBWOOFER

Sound spreads in all directions in the very low frequency range.

Human hearing cannot easily detect the source of very low

frequencies. Be sure to provide a space of at least 8 inches

(20 cm) between the rear of the subwoofer and the nearest wall.

FRONT SPEAKERS

For best results the loudspeakers should be separated a distance

approximately equal to the listening distance. Angling the

loudspeakers inward towards the listener will improve the image

stability for non-central listeners. Close proximity to a side or rear

wall will enhance the midbass performance, although too close

(particularly a corner location) and the bass may be unnaturally

high and image performance may be degraded.

CENTER SPEAKER

The loudspeaker should be positioned below the TV. For best

results align the front of the loudspeaker with the front of the TV.

If the loudspeaker is placed under the TV and very close to the

floor, then tilting upwards may be beneficial.

When installing the center speaker on top of the TV, be sure to

secure it with tape or some other suitable means. Otherwise, the

speaker may fall from the TV due to external shocks such as

earthquakes, endangering those nearby or damaging the speaker.

SURROUND SPEAKERS

For best results the loudspeaker should be positioned near ear

level (S-FCR3700 only).

STANDARD SURROUND SETUP

This is a standard multichannel surround soundspeaker setup

for optimal 5.1 channel home theater sound.

Assembling the speaker stands and securing your front

and surround (S-FCR4700 only) speakers

Attach the speaker stand bases to the stems using the screws

provided.

Once you have aligned the stem and base, secure with the

small screws at the points shown below. Note that the speaker

should face in the direction of the base of the isosceles triangle

(outlined below).

Rear

Front

Secure each of the front and surround (S-FCR4700 only)

speakers using the metal catch provided.

Screw two picture hooks or similar into the wall behind the

speaker. Pass a chain or cord around the hooks and through

the metal catch so that the speaker is stabilized (make sure to

test that it supports the weight of the speaker).

After installing, make sure the speaker is securely fixed.

Chain or cord

Metal catch

CAUTION:

· The metal catch is not a mounting fixture, and the speaker

should not be hung directly from the wall using this catch.

Always use a chain or cord when stabilizing the speaker.

· Pioneer disclaims all responsibility for any losses or

damage resulting from improper assembly, installation,

insufficient strength of the installation materials, misuse, or

natural disasters.

NON-SKID PADS

Attach the small non-skid pads to the base of the surround (S-

FCR3700 only) and center speakers. The large non-skid pads

are for the front and surround (S-FCR4700 only) speakers, and

the subwoofer (as shown).

Use the adhesive side of the pads to attach them to the base of

each speaker and the subwoofer.

If you choose to use speaker stands with the surround speakers,

attach the non-skid pads to the stand bases instead of to the

underside of the speakers (S-FCR3700 only).

For each speaker,line up the spurs on the stand with the holes

on the back of the speaker and insert, then secure the speaker

to the stand with the screw provided.

WALL MOUNTING THE SURROUND

(S-FCR3700 ONLY) AND CENTER SPEAKERS

The surround (S-FCR3700 only) and center speakers have

mounting holes which can be used to mount the speaker on the

wall.

5 mm

10 mm

5 mm to 7 mm

Before mounting (see above), keep in mind the following points:

¶ Remember that the speaker system is heavy and that its

weight could cause the screws to work loose, or the wall

material to fail to support it, resulting in the speaker falling.

Make sure that the wall you intend to mount the speakers on

is strong enough to support them. Do not mount on plywood

or soft surface walls.

¶ Mounting screws are not supplied. Use screws suitable for

the wall material and support the weight of the speaker.

CAUTION:

· If you are unsure of the qualities and strength of the walls,

consult a professional for advice.

· Pioneer is not responsible for any accidents or damage

that result from improper installation.

CABINET MAINTENANCE

Use a polishing cloth or dry cloth to wipe off dust and dirt.

When the cabinet is very dirty, clean with a soft cloth dipped in

some neutral cleanser diluted five or six times with water, and

then wipe again with a dry cloth. Do not use furniture wax or

cleaners.

Never use thinners, benzine, insecticide sprays and other

chemicals on or near the cabinets, since these will corrode the

surfaces.

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.

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

andclearly, 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.

We Want You Listening ForA Lifetime

Used wisely, your new sound equipment will provide a lifetime

of fun and enjoyment. Since hearing damage from loud noise is

often undetectable until it is too late, this manufacturer and the

Electronic Industries Association's Consumer Electronics Group

recommend you avoid prolonged exposure to excessive noise.

This list of sound levels is included for your protection.
