Frequently Asked Questions - HTS3500 ONKYO

How to connect the speakers to the receiver?

Use the color-coded terminals: front left (white), front right (red), center (green), surround left (blue), surround right (gray), subwoofer (purple). Strip the cables 10-12 mm and insert the wires. Respect polarity (+/-).

How to connect an iPod/iPhone?

Connect your iPod/iPhone via the front USB port using the supplied cable. Press USB to select the input. You can browse tracks on the TV screen or use Standard mode to control from the device.

How to use the HDMI ARC function?

Make sure your TV is ARC-compatible. Connect the TV to the HDMI OUT of the receiver. Enable HDMI Ctrl (RIHD) to On and Audio Return Ch to Auto in the HDMI Setup menu. Select the TV/CD input to hear the TV sound.

How to set the speaker distance?

Access the OSD setup menu by pressing SETUP. Go to Sp Distance. Enter the distance of each speaker from your listening position. Units can be set in meters or feet.

What to do if the receiver does not turn on?

Check that the power cord is properly connected and the wall outlet works. If the problem persists, the internal fuse may be defective. Contact an authorized Onkyo dealer for replacement.

How to memorize a radio station?

Select the band (AM or FM) and tune to the station. Press MEMORY, then use PRESET ◀/▶ to choose a preset number (1-40). Press MEMORY again to confirm.

How to reset the receiver to factory settings?

Turn on the receiver. While holding down the VCR/DVR button, press ON/STANDBY. Hold both buttons until the display shows 'Clear'. Release. This erases all custom settings.

Can I use speakers of another brand?

Yes, but the impedance must be between 6 and 16 ohms. Lower impedances may trigger thermal protection. Respect the rated power and polarities.

How to activate the automatic standby mode?

Press SLEEP on the remote repeatedly to choose a delay of 10 to 90 minutes. The SLEEP indicator lights up. To deactivate, press until the indicator disappears.

Why is there no sound from the speakers?

Check that speakers A or B are enabled (press SP A/B). Make sure the volume is not muted (MUTING). Check connections and source selection. If you are using headphones, the speakers are disabled.

Before Using the Home Theater Speaker Package

Using the Rubber Stoppers for a More Stable Platform

We recommend using the supplied rubber stoppers to achieve the best possible sound from your speakers. The rubber stoppers prevent the speakers from moving, providing a more stable platform.

Rubber stoppers Bottom of the SKF-391/ SKR-391 Rubber stoppers Bottom of the SKC-391/SKC-391C 1" (25 mm) 1-3/16" (30 mm)

Using the Floor Pads for Subwoofer

If the subwoofer is placed on a hard floor (wood, vinyl, tile, etc.) and playback is very loud, the subwoofer's feet may damage the flooring. To prevent this, place the supplied pads underneath the subwoofer's feet. The pads also provide a stable base for the subwoofer.

Wall Mounting

To mount the front/surround speakers vertically, use the keyhole slot shown to hang each speaker on a screw that's securely screwed into the wall.

Keyhole slot for wall mounting SKF-391/SKR-391

To mount the center speaker horizontally, use the two keyhole slots shown to hang the speaker on two screws that are securely screwed into the wall.

SKC-391/ SKC-391C 6-5/16" (160 mm)

Tip

- If the center speaker is tilted, loosen the screw on the declined side to move upward so that the speaker could be adjusted vertically.

Caution

- A mounting screw's ability to support a speaker depends on how well it's anchored to the wall. If you have hollow walls, screw each mounting screw into a stud. If there are no studs, or the walls are solid, use suitable wall anchors. Use screws with a head diameter of 5/16" (9 mm) or less and a 1/8" (4 mm) or less. With hollow walls detector to check for any power cables before making any holes.

- Leave a gap of between 3/16" (5 mm) and 7/16" (10 mm) between the wall and the base of the screw head, as shown (We recommend that you consult a home installation professional).

Enjoying Home Theater

The Home Theater means that you can enjoy surround sound with a real sense of movement in your own home — just like being in a movie theater or concert hall.

① Front left and right speakers (SKF-391)

They should be positioned facing the listener at about ear level, and equally spaced from the TV. Angle them inward slightly so as to create a triangle, with the listener at the apex.

② Center speaker (SKC-391/SKC-391C)

Position it close to your TV (preferably on top) facing forward at about car level, or at the same height as the front left and right speakers.

③ Surround left and right speakers (SKR-391)

Position them at the sides of the listener, or slightly behind, about 2 to 3 feet (60 to 100 cm) above ear level. Ideally they should be equally spaced from the listener.

④ Subwoofer (SKW-391)

The subwoofer handles the bass sounds of the LFE (Low-Frequency Effects) channel and bass from the satellite speakers when a crossover is specified. The volume and quality of the bass output from your subwoofer will depend on its position, the shape of your listening room, and your listening position. In general, a good bass sound can be obtained by installing the subwoofer in a front corner, or at one-third the way along the front wall, as shown.

Connecting the Speakers

Speaker Connection Precautions

Read the following before connecting your speakers:

• Turn off your receiver before making any connections.
• Pay close attention to speaker wiring polarity. Connect positive (+) terminals to only positive (+) terminals, and negative (−) terminals to only negative (−) terminals. If the speakers are wired incorrectly, the sound will phase and will sound unnatural.
• Be careful not to short the positive and negative wires. Doing so may damage your amp.

Note

For non-magnetic shielded speakers:

Try moving the speakers away from your TV or monitor. If discoloration should occur, 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.
