To wirelessly stream audio to the soundbar from a Bluetooth-enabled device:
1. Confirm that the JBL CINEMA SB150 is in the Bluetooth pairing mode (the
Bluetooth button LED will be flashing blue). If the LED is not flashing blue,
press and hold the Bluetooth button until its LED starts flashing blue.
2. Place your Bluetooth-streaming device in pairing mode.
3. Use your device's Bluetooth-pairing menu to pair it with the JBL CINEMA
SB150. The system will appear as "CINEMA SB150" in the list of Bluetooth
available devices. When the JBL CINEMA SB150's Bluetooth button LED
illuminates constantly, it is paired with your device and you can stream audio
via Bluetooth from the device to the JBL CINEMA SB150.
To listen to audio from the Bluetooth device, press the Bluetooth source button
on the JBL CINEMA SB150 or remote to activate the source. If the JBL CINEMA
SB150 is in Standby mode, you can automatically wake up the system by
starting to stream an audio Bluetooth signal to the JBL CINEMA SB150 as long
as your device has already been paired with the JBL CINEMA SB150.
To disconnect the Bluetooth device, press and hold the JBL CINEMA SB150's
Bluetooth button until the LED begins flashing.
NOTE:
• You can manually switch sources to the paired Bluetooth device by pressing
the JBL CINEMA SB150's Bluetooth button.
• If you switch the JBL CINEMA SB150 to a different source while a paired
Bluetooth device is streaming to the system, the JBL CINEMA SB150 will
send a STOP command and the Bluetooth device will stop streaming.
• While pairing the Bluetooth device for the first time, it may reset the volume
level to maximum.

Adjusting the System Volume

For the best sound, we recommend turning your TV's built-in speakers off.
Consult your TV's owner's manual to find out how to do this. If there is no way
to turn your TV's speakers off, you can adjust the TV's volume so that your JBL
CINEMA SB150 system will always supply most of the sound:
1. Using the volume buttons on your TV, turn its volume all the way down.
2. Use the JBL CINEMA SB150's Volume Up/Down buttons to set the sound to a
comfortable listening level. This way, your JBL CINEMA SB150 system should
always be louder than your TV speakers.
IMPORTANT: If you play the JBL CINEMA SB150 at more
than 50% of max volume it will automatically reset at 50% of
the max volume when it is turned off using either the power
button or the auto turn off function.

Surround Mode Button

Press the soundbar's or remote's Surround Mode indicator to switch the sound
between normal stereo and surround sound providing a complete surround-sound
experience for anyone sitting in front of and several feet away from the soundbar.
Although it is particularly effective when watching movies, you can also take
advantage of the Surround setting for adding to your music-listening experience.
