MODEL: E30

The supplied self-adhesive

rubber feet may be attached to

the bottom corners of your

speakers to protect your

furniture.

MODELS: E60,

E80, E90

These models feature four rub-

ber feet which enable them to

be placed on a smooth-surfaced

floor, such as tile or hardwood.

Four metal spikes are supplied

for use when the speaker is to

be placed on a carpeted sur-

face, to decouple the speaker

from the floor and prevent

unwanted damping.

To insert the spikes, gently lay

the speaker on its side (not its

front or back) on a soft,

nonabrasive surface. Each

spike screws into the threaded

insert in the center of each rub-

ber foot. Make sure all four

spikes are screwed in

completely for stability.

NEVER

drag the speaker to

move it, as this will damage the

spikes, the feet and/or the wood

cabinet itself. Always lift the

speaker and carry it to its new

location.

CAUTION: Floorstanding (tower)

loudspeakers have a high cen-

ter of gravity and may become

unstable and tip over during

earthquakes, or if rocked, tipped

or improperly positioned. If this

is a concern, these speakers

should be anchored to the wall

behind them, using the same

procedures and hardware cus-

tomary for anchoring bookcases

and wall units. The customer is

responsible for proper installa-

tion and proper selection of

hardware.

TROUBLESHOOTING

If there is no sound from any

of the speakers:

• Check that receiver/amplifier

is on and that a source is

playing.

• Review proper operation of

your receiver/amplifier.

If there is no sound coming

from one speaker:

• Check the “Balance” control

on your receiver/amplifier.

• Check all wires and connec-

tions between receiver/ampli-

fier and speakers.

• Make sure no wires are touch-

ing other wires or terminals and

creating a short circuit.

• Make sure all wires are con-

nected. Make sure none of the

speaker wires are frayed, cut or

punctured.

• In Dolby* Digital or DTS

mode, make sure that the

receiver/processor is

configured so that the speaker

in question is enabled.

• Turn off all electronics and

switch the speaker in question

with one of the other speakers

that is working correctly. Turn

everything back on, and deter-

mine whether the problem has

followed the speakers, or has

remained in the same channel.

If the problem is in the same

channel, the source of the

problem is most likely with your

receiver or amplifier, and you

should consult the owner’s

manual for that product for

further information.

If the problem has followed the

speaker, consult your dealer for

further assistance or, if that is

not possible, visit www.jbl.com

for further information.

If the system plays at low

volumes but shuts off as

volume is increased:

• Check all wires and connec-

tions between receiver/

amplifier and speakers.

• Make sure all wires are

connected. Make sure none of

the speaker wires are frayed,

cut or punctured.

• If more than one pair of main

speakers is being used, check

the minimum impedance

requirements of your receiver/

amplifier.

If there is no (or low) bass

output:

• Make sure the polarities

(+ and –) of the left and right

“Speaker Inputs” are con-

nected properly.

• Consider adding a powered

subwoofer to your system for

use with digital “.1” surround

formats.

If there is no sound from

the surround speakers:

• Check all wires and con-

nections between receiver/

amplifier and speakers. Make

sure all wires are connected.

Make sure none of the speaker

wires are frayed, cut or

punctured.

• Review proper operation of

your receiver/amplifier and its

surround sound features.

• Make sure the movie or TV

show you are watching is

recorded in a surround sound

mode. If it is not, check to see

whether your receiver/amplifier

has other surround modes you

may use.

• In Dolby Digital or DTS mode,

make sure your receiver/pro-

cessor is configured so that the

surround speakers are enabled.

• Review the operation of your

DVD player and the jacket of

your DVD to make sure that the

DVD features the desired Dolby

Digital or DTS mode, and that

you have properly selected that

mode using both the DVD

player’s menu and the DVD

disc’s menu.
