Batteries Installed Warning

CAUTION - Danger of explosion if batteries are incorrectly replaced. Replace only with the same or equivalent type. The batteries shall not be exposed to excessive heat such as sunshine, fire or the like.

NOTE - The soundbar remote control does not carry an IP rating. Do NOT allow the remote control to get wet. Do NOT leave the remote control outside when the soundbar is not in use.

CAUTION:

These servicing instructions are for use by qualified service personnel only. To reduce the risk of electric shock, do NOT perform any servicing other than that contained in the operating instructions unless you are qualified to do so.

1.Read these instructions.

2.Keep these instructions.

3.Heed all warnings.

4.Follow all instructions.

5.Do NOT defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding type plug. A polarized plug has two blades with one wider than the other. A grounding type plug has two blades and a third grounding prong. The wide blade or the third prong are provided for your safety. If the provided plug does not fit into your outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet.

6.Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the apparatus.

7.Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the apparatus has been damaged in any way, such as power-supply cord or plug is damaged, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.

8.Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.

9.In case of emergency such as fire or electric shock caused by the product, immediately contact 911 or proper emergency police/fire service agencies in your country.

10.Follow instructions for wall, shelf or ceiling mounting as recommended by the manufacturer.

11.Use properly rated power voltage. Use of non-rated voltage may cause fire, electric shock and severe damages to the product.

12.Do NOT open the cabinet under any circumstances. High voltage inside of this product may cause electric shock.

13.Do NOT, under any circumstances, modify or disassemble this product as it may cause fire, electric shock, or severe damages to the product. Also any unauthorized modifications made to the product automatically void product warranty.

14.Never touch antenna lines, wires, if applicable, power cables or power plugs in such circumstances as lightning and thunder as it may cause electric shock.

15.Any severe physical impact on the product may cause certain components to fall out of place within and break, which may cause fire or electric shock. In such event, do not operate the product. Contact the manufacturer for support.

16.Periodically clean dust off the power plug, to keep it clean and dry, ensuring proper and safe operation of the product.

17.Do NOT destroy, process, or place the product close to any heating device; do NOT bend or twist power cords, power plugs, cables, or wires with excessive force; do NOT place any heavy object on the product as all of the above may cause damages to the product and result in fire or electric shock.

3

2017-07-25 #:180-9109-2 (2017-08-28)

18.Do NOT touch power plugs with wet hands.

19.Always make sure to plug in the power plug firmly and completely. Incompletely placed power plugs may cause fire or electric shock due to built up heat emission.

20.Do NOT use any non-rated power sockets or power strips with many other devices jointly plugged in. The wire of non-designated capacity may cause fire due to built up heat emission. Try to use a single, directly dedicated and rated GFI power socket for the product for safe operation.

21.In case of product malfunction or unusual events such as electrical burning smell, smoke, or loss of content signals on soundbar due to internal overheating, immediately turn off and unplug the power and contact the manufacturer.

22.Do NOT install the product at such unstable locations as moving objects, constantly vibrating props, or uneven surfaces. Improper installation may cause products to fall off. Follow mounting instructions properly for safe operation of the product.

23.Do NOT install the product near any poisonous gas or chemically unstable atmosphere as it may cause fire.

24.Do NOT install the product near any strong magnetic or electrical current field. It may cause fire, electric shock, or severe damages to the product. The product may be subject to any electromagnetic radiation, causing failure.

25.Do NOT leave any fire source, such as candles, close to or on the product as it may be a cause for fire or damages to the product.

26.Do NOT move or transport the product with any cables (power cables, content connectivity cables) plugged in to the source devices. Damages may occur to the cables, plugs, or jointing connectors of the cables due to

forcible bending and stress, which may cause damages to the waterproof seal of the product, making it subject to fire, electric shock, or shorted circuit.

27.When unplugging, always grab the plugs of power cords or cables. Improper pulling of the cords or cables may cause damages to the waterproof seal of the product, making it subject to fire, electric shock, or shorted circuit.

28.Do NOT climb on the product.

29.Do NOT use any other power cords or connection cables than what is provided with the product or from the manufacturer directly. Use of untested, unauthorized, or substituted power cords or connection cables may be a cause for malfunction, fire, electric shock, or severe damages to the product. Also such use of improper or undesignated power cords or connection cables will void product warranty.

30.Always leave the power Off when plugging or unplugging the power cords or connection cables to avoid electric shock or damages to the product.

31.Do NOT use any chemical such as paint thinner or benzene to clean the product’s exterior. It may cause scratches on the surface, erasing proper indications, identification labels, or instructions on the exterior, which may be a cause for misuse and improper operation of the product.

32.Never power wash or spray water at the front grill of the soundbar. While the speaker gaskets are IP65 rated and won't allow ingress of water to the electrical components, doing so may cause damage to the drivers and void the warranty.

WARNING

ENG - When installing Peerless wall mounts on a concrete wall, the wall must be at least 8" thick with a minimum compressive strength of 2000 psi. When installing Peerless wall mounts on a cinder block wall, the cinder blocks must meet ASTM C-90 specifications and have a minimum nominal width of 8". Do not drill into mortar joints!

Be sure to mount in a solid part of the block, generally 1" (25 mm) minimum from the side of the block. It is suggested that a standard electric drill on slow setting is used to drill the hole instead of a hammer drill to avoid breaking out the back of the hole when entering a void or cavity. Never attach concrete expansion anchors to concrete or cinder block covered with plaster, drywall or other finishing material.

Battery Installation and Replacement

The remote control is powered by two 15V AAA batteries.

To install or replace batteries:

1.Install/Replace the batteries by removing the battery cover and sliding in two new "AAA" batteries. Important: Match the batteries to the (+)

and (-) marks on the inside of the remote control.

2.Snap the battery cover back onto the remote control.

CAUTION

Incorrect usage of batteries can result in leaks or bursting. Peerless-AV recommends the following battery use:

1.Do NOT mix battery brands.

2. Do NOT combine new and old batteries. This can shorten the battery life or cause liquid leakage of the batteries.

3.Remove dead batteries immediately to prevent battery acid from leaking into the battery compartment.

4.Do NOT touch exposed battery acid as it may injure skin.

5.Remove the batteries if you do not intend to use the remote control for a long period of time.

Cable Management and Soundbar Orientation

For Digital Connection:

1.Connect the provided toslink cable to the optical digital audio out port on the TV. Make sure the cable is fully inserted.

2.Plug the other end of the optical cable into the optical port on the soundbar. Make sure that there are no excessive bends or pinch points when connecting the optical cable.

3.Plug the soundbar's power cable into the nearest outlet.

4.Note: When optical digital audio port is not being used on the soundbar the port cover should remain closed

For Analog Connection:

1.Connect the soundbar’s 3.5mm audio cable to the audio out port on the TV. Make sure the 3.5mm audio cable is fully inserted.

2.Plug the soundbar's power cable into the nearest outlet.

3.Note: If the audio output of the TV is RCA stereo, a female 3.5mm to male RCA stereo audio cable will be required.

Female 3.5mm to male RCA stereo audio cable (sold seperately)
