If you have source devices with HDMI connectors, using them will provide the best possible audio and video performance quality. HDMI ARC TV Out connector: If your TV has an HDMI input, use an HDMI cable (not supplied) to connect it to the soundbar's HDMI ARC TV Out connector. The soundbar will pass video from source devices connected to its HDMI Input connectors, along with its own on-screen information display to the TV. If your TV is equipped with the HDMI Audio Return Channel (ARC) Function, you can feed its sound to the soundbar via the HDMI ARC TV Out connection, and it will not require additional audio connections to the soundbar. The ARC signal is active when the HDMI TV source is selected. Pairing button and LED: Press the Pairing button to initiate wireless pairing between the soundbar and the wireless subwoofer. See Pairing the Units for Wireless Operation, on page 6, for more information. EQ switch: Use this switch to adjust the soundbars bass for either wall or table mounting.

Aux Input connection: Use the included stereo 3.5mm to stereo RCA audio cable to connect the stereo analog outputs of your TV, disc player or cable/satellite tuner here. Optical Input connector: If your TV, disc player or cable/satellite tuner has an optical digital output, use the included optical cable to connect\ it here. IMPORTANT: Do not connect the power cord to an AC outlet until you have made and verified all other connections.

SuBWooFEr CoNTroLS ANd CoNNECTIoNS Subwoofer Level control: Use this control to balance the subwoofers volume with that of the soundbar. Turn the knob clockwise to increase the subwoofers volume; turn it counterclockwise to decrease the subwoofers volume. Crossover control: This knob adjusts the subwoofers cutoff between 40Hz and 200Hz.The higher you set the Cutoff control, the higher in frequency the subwoofer will operate and the more its bass will overlap that of the soundbar. This adjustment helps achieve a smooth transition of bass frequencies between the subwoofer and the soundbar for a variety of different rooms and subwoofer locations. See Subwoofer Crossover control, on page 8, for more information. Phase switch: This switch determines whether the subwoofer drivers piston-like action moves in and out in phase with the speakers in the soundbar. If the subwoofer were to play out of phase with the soundbar speakers, some of the sound waves produced by the subwoofer or soundbar could be canceled, reducing bass performance and sonic impact. This phenomenon depends in part on the relative placement of the speakers in the room. See Subwoofer Phase switch, on page 8, for more information. Wireless Pairing switch and LED: Press this switch to initiate wireless pairing between the subwoofer and the soundbar. See Pairing the Units for Wireless Operation, on page 6, for more information. - The LED lights blue continuously when the subwoofer is on and linked to the soundbar. - The LED slowly flashes blue when the subwoofer is on and the wireless link is not established between the subwoofer and the soundbar. - The LED rapidly flashes blue during the wireless pairing process.
