The serial number for this equipment is located on the rear. Please write this serial number on your
warranty and keep it in a secure area for future reference.

• Thank you for buying this Pioneer product.
• Please read through this operating guide before

using your speaker system so you will know how
to optimize performance. After you have finished
reading the operating guide, store it in a safe place
for future reference.

• The rated impedance of this speaker system  is 8

Ω

. It must be connected to an amplifier which

accepts this type of load (minimum and maximum
impedances accepted by the amplifier are gener-
ally indicated near the loudspeaker outlets: for
example "4-16 

Ω

" or "6-16 

Ω

").

• To guard against damage to this speaker system

due to an electric power overload, take the follow-
ing precautions:
 • Do not supply power to the speaker system in

excess of the maximum permissible input.

• When connecting or disconnecting cables, be

sure the amplifier power is OFF.

• When using a graphic equalizer, do not use

excessive amplifier volume.

• Do not try to force a low-powered amplifier to

produce loud sound (the amplifier’s distortion
will be increased, and you may damage the
tweeter).

• Avoid touching the diaphragms and suspen-

sions of the speaker units as they are fragile.

• The S-LF3-F system is composed of 2 identical

front speakers.

• For optimum sound reproduction of high frequen-

cies, the treble speaker units must be at the same
height as the listener's ears.

• For low frequencies, it is possible to increase the

level of bass sounds by positioning the speakers
close to a wall (the maximum increase being
obtained for a position in a corner of the listening
room).

• Do not install these speakers close to an oven or

heating appliance. Avoid exposing them to direct
sunlight. High temperature can distort the struc-
ture of the enclosure and adversely affect the
sound.

• These speakers are heavy and fragile, therefore it

is dangerous to install them in an unstable posi-
tion.

NOTE:
The speaker units in this speaker system
are magnetically shielded. However, colours
may blur if the speakers are positioned too
close to a television screen. If this happens,
switch off the television and switch it back
on again after 15 to 30 minutes. If the
problem persists, move the speakers away
from the television set.
