CONNECTIONS

INSTALLING THE WALL MOUNT

You can use the wall mount bracket to mount this unit on a wall.

Installation Precautions

• Install on a vertical wall only.
• For the installation, avoid a location with high temperature or humidity, or a wall that cannot sustain the weight of the set.
• Check the strength of the wall. If the wall is not strong enough to support the unit, reinforce the wall or install the unit on a different wall that can support the unit's weight.
• Purchase and use the fixing screws or anchors appropriate for the kind of wall you have (plaster board, iron board, wood, etc.). If possible, fix the support screws into wall studs.
• Purchase wall mounting screws according to the type and thickness of the wall you will mount the Soundbar on.
  • Diameter: M5
  • Length: L 35 mm or longer recommended
• Connect cables from the unit to external devices before you install it on the wall.
• Make sure the unit is turned off and unplugged before you install it. Otherwise, it may cause an electric shock.

1. Place the installation guide against the wall surface.
   • The installation guide must be level.
   • Install at least 5 cm below the TV, if the TV is mounted on the wall.
     
2. Mark the location where the screws will go through on the wall using a pen, and then remove the installation guide.
   
3. Fasten the wall mounts and screws to the marked locations.
   • The left and right mounts are different shapes.
     
4. Secure the two holder screws to the screw holes on the back of the Soundbar's main body, one on the left and one on the right.
   
5. Insert the USB cable into the back of the Soundbar before installing it on the wall.
6. Set the holder screws on the back of the Soundbar into the grooves of the wall mount. For safe installation, make sure to push the holder screws all the way to the bottom of the grooves.
   

DETACHING THE WALL MOUNT

1. Pull the Soundbar upwards as shown in the figure to separate it from the wall mount.
   

• Do not hang onto the installed unit and avoid striking or dropping the unit.
• Secure the unit firmly to the wall so that it does not fall off. If the unit falls off, it may cause an injury or damage the product.
• When the unit is installed on a wall, please make sure that children do not pull any of the connecting cables, as it may cause it to fall.
• For the optimal performance of a wall mount installation, install the speaker system at least 5 cm below the TV, if the TV is mounted on the wall.
• For your safety, if you do not mount the unit on the wall, install it on a secure, flat surface where it is unlikely to fall.

INSTALLING THE BRACKET WITHOUT REFERRING TO THE WALL-MOUNT INSTALLATION GUIDE

1. Place the "Wall Mount L" on the desired wall surface while paralleled to the floor as shown above, and fix a screw through the hole on its right end.
2. Place the "Wall Mount R" on the desired wall surface while paralleled to the floor as shown above, and fix a screw through the hole on its left end.
   • If Wall Mount L/R are to be mounted beneath the TV, check their fixing hole positions in steps 1 and 2, so that they are aligned appropriately to the center of the TV's bottom.
3. Fix screws through the rest of holes.

CONNECTING THE WIRELESS SUBWOOFER

The Subwoofer's linking ID is preset at the factory and the main unit and subwoofer should link (connect wirelessly) automatically when the main unit and subwoofer are turned on. If the Link indicator ( ) does not light when the main unit and subwoofer are turned on, please set the ID by following the procedure below.

1. Plug the power cords of the main unit and subwoofer into an AC wall outlet.
2. Press the ID SET button on the back of the subwoofer with a small, pointed object for 5 seconds.
   • The STANDBY indicator is turned off and the LINK indicator (Blue LED) blinks quickly.
3. While the main unit is powered off (in STANDBY mode), press and hold the MUTE ( ) on the remote control for 5 seconds.
4. The ID SET message appears on the Soundbar's display.
5. To finalize the link, turn the main unit's power on while the subwoofer's Blue LED blinks.
   • The main unit and the subwoofer should now be linked (connected).
   • The Link indicator (Blue LED) on the subwoofer should be on.
   • If the Link indicator is not solid blue, the linking process has failed. Turn off the main unit and start again from Step 2.
   • You can enjoy better sound from the wireless subwoofer by selecting a Sound Effect.

• Before moving or installing the product, be sure to turn off the power and disconnect the power cord.
• If the main unit is powered off, the wireless subwoofer will be in standby mode and the STANDBY LED on the upper side will come on after the Link indicator (Blue LED) blinks for 30 seconds.
• If you use a device that uses the same frequency (2.4GHz) as the Soundbar near the Soundbar, interference may cause some sound interruption.
• The transmission distance of the wireless signal between the main unit and subwoofer is about 10 m, but may vary depending on your operating environment.
  If a steel-concrete or metallic wall is between the main unit and the wireless subwoofer, the system may not operate at all, because the wireless signal cannot penetrate metal.
• If the main unit doesn't make a wireless connection, follow steps 1-5 to re-set the connection between the main unit and wireless subwoofer.

• The wireless receiving antenna is built into the wireless subwoofer. Keep the unit away from water and moisture.
• For optimal listening performance, make sure that the area around the wireless subwoofer location is clear of any obstructions.
