0523 _NS-PLC3_en.fm Page 1 Monday, May 23, 2005 6:49 PME-2 Supplied Accessories Precautions When Positioning the Speakers The speaker is constructed with the majority of the weight located in its upper portion, and is thus susceptible to falling over if proper care is not taken to insure its stability. If the speaker falls over, it may damage the speaker or be the cause of injury (or even death) to persons and/or damage to personal property. ■ For safe and proper use of the speaker:

• Position the speaker in a location that is solid, level, smooth, and low (with respect to the floor).

• Do not push or apply pressure to the side of the speaker when moving, or lean objects against the side of the speaker.

• Do not sit on or set objects on top of the speaker. Vibrations or jolts associated with earthquakes and other phenomena or activities may cause the speaker to fall over. For safety reasons, using commercially available products that increase stability in the speaker is recommended (metal fittings or chains, etc.).
