System Setup
Making the connections
Labeled jacks on the rear of the media center (Figure 8) and the custom cables supplied with
the Model 3•2•1 system make it easy to get everything hooked up right the first time.

Follow these basic steps
1. On the rear panel of the media center, insert the single-plug end of the speaker cable into
the SPEAKERS connector (Figure 8). Tighten the screws on either side of the plug to
ensure a snug connection (Figure 9).
Note: When properly inserted, there will be a small gap between the plug and the panel.

2. At the other end of the speaker cable, grasp the two connectors and pull the cable apart
as much as necessary to reach each speaker.
3. Plug the LEFT connector of the separated cable into the rear jack on the left speaker (to
the left of the TV as you face it) and the RIGHT connector into the rear jack on the right
speaker (to the right of the TV). LEFT or RIGHT is printed on the appropriate connector
(Figure 10).
