Select the BLUETOOTH receiver's name from the [Device List]
in [Bluetooth Settings] (page 25).
When the BLUETOOTH connection is established, the indicator
(blue) lights up.
If you cannot find your BLUETOOTH receiver's name in the list,
select [Scan].
Note
The [Device List] screen appears after a confirmation dialog when
you change [Bluetooth Mode] to [Transmitter] from other modes.

Adjust the volume level of the BLUETOOTH receiver first. When
connected with a BLUETOOTH receiver, volume level of the
system cannot be controlled. VOLUME +/– on the Bar Speaker
and  +/– on the remote control only work for the BLUETOOTH
receiver.
Notes
 You can register up to 9 BLUETOOTH receivers. If a 10th BLUETOOTH
receiver is registered, the least recently connected BLUETOOTH receiver
will be replaced by the new one.

The system can display up to 15 detected BLUETOOTH receivers in the
[Device List].
 You cannot change the sound effect or settings in the options menu
while transmitting sound.
 Some content cannot be output due to content protection.

Playback of audio/music on the BLUETOOTH receivers is delayed
compared to that on the system due to the characteristics of
BLUETOOTH wireless technology.
 No sound is output from speakers and HDMI OUT (ARC) jack when a
BLUETOOTH receiver is successfully connected to the system.
 [Screen mirroring], [Bluetooth Audio] and Home Theatre Control
function are disabled when the system is in transmitter mode.
Tips
 You can enable or disable the reception of AAC or LDAC audio from the
BLUETOOTH device (page 25).

You can also switch the [Bluetooth Mode] using RX/TX on the remote
control.
When the BLUETOOTH device in step 5 has finished pairing and that is
the most recently connected device, you can connect it to the system
automatically by simply pressing RX/TX on the remote control. In this
case, you do not need to perform step 6.
