Notes
•The supplied mounting brackets may not fit
some PC monitors. In such a case, place the
system beside the computer on top of the desk.
•Clean the surface of the mounting brackets and
the PC monitor before attaching the double-sided
tapes. Otherwise, the double-sided tapes may
not adhere firmly to the surface of the PC
monitor and the system may fall off.
•To attach the system to the PC monitor firmly
using the double-sided tapes, press the mounting
bracket firmly to the PC monitor.
•If the picture on the PC monitor is distorted by
the vibration from the speaker system, turn
down the volume first. If there seems to be no
improvement, try placing the speaker system on
top of a desk etc.
•Depending on the mounting surfaces, there may
be cases in which the mounting brackets becomes
difficult to remove once attached. Also the
double-sided tapes used on the mounting
brackets may leave some marks on the surface of
the PC monitor when they are removed.
