SouNdBAr PLACEMENt

PLACING THE SOUNDBAR ON A TABLE

If your TV is placed on a table, you can place the soundbar on the table directly in front of the TV stand, centered with the TV screen. As long as the surface of the table is flat, the soundbar will rest on its rubber bumpers.

• Set the soundbar’s EQ switch in the “Table” position. See Soundbar Rear-Panel Controls and Connections, on page 2.

WALL-MOUNTING THE SOUNDBAR

If your TV is attached to a wall, you can use the included wall-mount bracket to mount the soundbar on the wall directly below the TV screen.

1. Determine the location for the soundbar on the wall. Make sure that the top of the soundbar will not block your view of the TV screen when it is mounted on the wall.

4. After reading the Connections section on page 4, connect all cables to the soundbar.

IMPORTANT: Do NOT plug the soundbar’s power cord into an AC outlet at this time.

• Set the soundbar’s EQ switch in the “Wall” position, and set the

soundbar’s Power switch in the “On” position. See Soundbar RearPanel Controls and Connections, on page 2.

5. Attach the soundbar to the bracket by sliding the bracket’s upper tabs into the slots on the back of the soundbar. The soundbar’s slots allow you to adjust the soundbar’s angle on the wall to ensure that it is level.

Insert Tabs on Bracket into Slots on Soundbar

2. Hold the bracket against the wall as a template and mark the locations of the soundbar wall-mount bracket holes on the wall. The three holes should be evenly spaced 7-1/16" (18cm) apart, and the bracket slots are designed to accept 4mm screws. Make sure that the holes are at the same height. See the illustration below.

Mark Three Bracket Hole Locations

7-1/16" (18cm) Apart

3. Making sure that the bracket’s flat side is against the wall, attach the wall-mount bracket to the wall at the locations you marked, using hardware that is appropriate for the wall’s construction and materials. Note that the soundbar weighs 7.5 lb (3.4kg). Be sure to use hardware that can support this weight.

SOURCE CONNECTIONS Analog: Use the supplied stereo audio cable to connect the soundbar’s

Aux (analog) input to your TV’s stereo audio output. If your TV has two sets of audio output jacks, use the set that has a fixed (not variable) output level. This will let you turn your TV’s speakers all the way off while the TV still supplies a constant audio signal to the soundbar.

Digital: If your disc player, cable tuner or satellite tuner has an optical digital output, you can use the supplied optical digital audio cable to connect it to the soundbar’s Optical (digital) input.

NOTE: If your disc player, cable tuner or satellite tuner does not have an optical digital output, you can connect its analog audio output to your TV. The TV will send its audio signal to the soundbar through the analog connection described above.
