WHERE TO LOCATE YOUR BAR FOR THE BEST SOUND
It’s easy. The bar comes with rubber feet already attached, so it will sit securely on any flat surface. Just center the bar under your TV screen. If your TV is housed in a media center, you can place the bar above the TV.
If your TV is wall mounted, the bar can mount right beneath it. The bar has built-in keyhole slots that make it easy.

1. 3 3/4" H (9.53 cm)
2. 31" (78.74 cm)
Note: The rubber feet are detachable and may be removed
entirely (for wall-mounting the bar) or moved along the bottom surface of the bar, depending upon your installation.
WHERE TO LOCATE YOUR SUBWOOFER FOR THE BEST SOUND
Your wireless subwoofer is really easy to place and can go just about anywhere in the room. Plus you don’t have to worry about connecting wires, because the only wire you have to plug in is the power cord. And that’s it.
Here’s a little trick: If you place your subwoofer in a corner of your room, it will reinforce the subwoofer’s output, making it sound louder.

HOW TO CONNECT YOUR SUBWOOFER
This is really easy too. You likely have many sources for your audio signal: your TV, your DVD player, or a cable/satellite box. The bar is able to accept audio from up to three different sources. The simplest approach is to connect the optical audio output of your TV to the optical input on the back of the bar. This method will provide the highest quality audio regardless of whether you are watching TV or watching your favorite DVD.
If your TV does not have an optical output, you can use the optical output from your DVD player or your cable/satellite box to connect
o the optical input on the bar. Then simply use the other bar
t inputs for your other audio sources.
Your subwoofer receives a wireless audio signal from the bar, so all you need to do is plug in the power cord and make sure the main power switch is ON.
SYNCING THE BAR AND WIRELESS SUBWOOFER
The SurroundBar 5000 bar and wireless subwoofer come from the factory preset to work together. If the wireless subwoofer stops receiving an audio signal, follow these instructions to re-establish the connection.
1. Turn off the subwoofer’s AC Mains switch.
2. Press and hold the SYNC button on the back
of the bar for three (3) seconds.
3. The LED on the back of the bar will blink,
indicating that the bar and the subwoofer are ready to be connected.
4. Turn on the subwoofer’s AC Mains switch. When
the subwoofer LED turns solid green the bar and subwoofer are connected and ready to use.
Note: Remove the protective cap prior to inserting cable.

BLUETOOTH®WIRELESS TECHNOLOGY
SOURCELEARN

How to disconnect with a Bluetooth device:

To use your Bluetooth wireless technology device with the SurroundBar 5000, you must first pair your device with your SurroundBar.
Pairing creates the ability of your Bluetooth device to connect with your SurroundBar wirelessly. Pairing is like a handshake between your Bluetooth device and your SurroundBar 5000 in which they meet and exchange information.
You only have to pair your SurroundBar with your Bluetooth device one time for this exchange of information to take place. After that you simply select the “polk sb5000” from your device list to make the connection to your SurroundBar.
The SurroundBar can hold 8 Bluetooth devices in its memory.
If enough devices pair after yours, your device could be dropped from the memory list.
Pair and connect your Bluetooth device with the SurroundBar:
1. Make sure your Bluetooth device and SurroundBar 5000
are both powered on.
2. Activate the Bluetooth function on your Bluetooth source
device. See your device’s manual for instructions.
3. Press the Bluetooth source button from the SurroundBar
remote or press the SOURCE button on the SurroundBar until the Bluetooth source is selected.
1. Press and release the Remote Control Bluetooth button, or
2. Press and release the Bluetooth Source button, or
3. Turn off or disconnect the Bluetooth feature
on your Bluetooth device.
The SurroundBar will emit a short tone and the Bluetooth source symbol will begin slowly pulsing when disconnected.
Automatic connection:
Any time you want to connect the last paired device and play it through the SurroundBar, do the following:
1. Turn your device’s Bluetooth function on.
2. Enter Bluetooth source by pressing the Bluetooth source
button from the remote or press the SOURCE button on the SurroundBar until the Bluetooth source is selected.
3. After a short delay, the two devices will automatically
connect, you will hear a short tone, and the Bluetooth source symbol will now be steady blue.
Note: By default, the last connected Bluetooth device will automatically connect if available.
Pair and/or connect to a device when in Bluetooth source, but disconnected:
OR
The Bluetooth symbol will illuminate, then begin slowly pulsing as it looks for the paired device.
4. Your SurroundBar will now be displayed on your source
device and available to pair and/or connect. Select the “polk sb5000” on your device to initiate the connection process.
5. After a short delay (5 seconds), the two devices should
now be connected. You should hear a short tone and the Bluetooth source symbol will now be steady blue.
6. Play your music from your device!
Note: If your device asks for a passcode to pair to the
SurroundBar, enter “0000.”
1. Engage the Bluetooth function on your Bluetooth source
device. See your device’s manual for instructions.
a. The SurroundBar will be displayed on your source
device as available to pair and connect. Select the “polk sb5000” on your device to initiate the pairing and connection process.
After a short delay, the two devices should now be paired and connected. You should hear a short tone and the Bluetooth source symbol will now be steady blue.
How to disconnect:
Note: Anytime The SurroundBar exits SLEEP mode and is in
Bluetooth source, the SurroundBar will automatically connect to the last paired Bluetooth device if the paired device’s Bluetooth feature is on.
HOW TO OPTIMIZE THE SOUND WHEN TV SPEAKERS ARE ON
You should hear sound from the bar. If you don’t, turn up the volume on the bar using its volume control buttons.
FINE TUNING YOUR SUBWOOFER VOLUME LEVEL
he next thing you’ll want to do is adjust the subwoofer
T to blend with your bar. This will ensure the system produces the best sound.
If your bar is connected to your TV, there’s a very good chance your TV speakers are also playing. It’s impossible to give specific instructions on how to turn off the speakers for every TV, but here’s a way to do it that covers many of the TVs out there.
1. On your TV remote control, find a “menu” or “setup” button.
2. Press this button. You should see an on-screen menu.
3. Next, look for an option to control audio functions
and select it.
The setting to turn off your TV’s internal speakers should be here.
If you can’t turn off your TV internal speakers, don’t worry. Your SurroundBar 5000 IHT will make your TV sound much better. To enjoy the best performance from your bar, you’ll want it to play louder than your TV. Use the following steps to adjust the volume balance between your TV and the bar:
1. If necessary, program your bar to respond to the volume
up and down control commands of your TV remote. (See “HOW TO SETUP A REMOTE CONTROL FOR YOUR SURROUNDBAR 5000 IHT” on page 10.)
2. Turn your TV volume all the way down using the control
buttons on your TV.
3. Then, using the volume keys on your bar, set the volume
to a normal listening level (do not use the remote control).
To set the subwoofer’s volume, play a variety of source material— some music, a movie sound track with great special effects, a movie chapter or a part of a concert in which people are speaking. Adjust the volume until what you hear sounds natural to you in your normal viewing location.
After you make these adjustments, your SurroundBar 5000 IHT should always be louder than your TV speakers. Then use the TV remote control to adjust the volume as you normally do.

HOW TO SET UP A REMOTE CONTROL
OR YOUR SURROUNDBAR IHT
F
SMARTBAR™PROGRAMMING NOTE:
For your SurroundBar to respond to your remote control, you MUST FIRST program the bar to respond to your television’s original IR (Infra-Red) remote. An RF (Radio Frequency)
emote will not work. Other remotes (cable, satellite) will
r
work only after you have programmed the bar to respond to the TV’s IR remote.
Programming Instructions: Your SurroundBar IHT is currently programmed to respond to the remote control that is included with the product. However, we strongly recommend program­ming the SurroundBar to also respond to your existing remote control using the steps illustrated below. This will enable you to operate all of your components using a single remote control. While programming the SurroundBar, ignore
anything that may be displayed on the TV screen.
Example: To teach your bar the “Volume Up”
command of your remote control:
Verify command works.
Repeat steps 1-6 to program “Volume Down” ( ), Source, Mute and Power buttons ( ).
Note: If your bar fails to learn certain IR remote codes, the power
LED will blink red. Try erasing any previously programmed codes (see below) and carefully repeat steps 1-6 above.
Code Erasing Procedure: If you have programmed your SurroundBar IHT to respond to a remote control and you no longer want it to do so, erase the codes by pressing the LEARN key for about two seconds while the unit is in standby mode (power LED is red). You’ll know that previously learned codes have been successfully erased when the power LED blinks orange twice.
Note: This procedure removes ALL of your bar’s remote control programming. If you only need to change the programming for some of the bar buttons, follow the six steps in the sequence previously described to redo any previous programming.
The SurroundBar will continue to respond to the provided credit card remote control.
SUB VOLUME CONTROL ON THE BAR
While unit is on and LED is solid green.
1. Tap LEARN once, LED ( ) turns orange.
2. To adjust sub volume, tap up ( ) or down ( ).
3. To return to master volume, tap LEARN again,
LED ( ) turns green.
NOTE: Bass can also be adjusted with included remote control.

TROUBLESHOOTING

The bar does not power on.
Ensure you have plugged the power supply into a live wall outlet. Ensure that all components of the power supply are connected properly. Ensure the power supply is properly connected to the bar power input. Ensure the rear panel power switch is in the “ON” position.
The subwoofer does not power on.
Ensure the subwoofer is plugged into a live wall outlet. Ensure the rear panel power switch is in the “ON” position.
No sound from the bar.
Check that the TV or cable box is providing a signal. If necessary, check using an alternate source. Check that the bar is receiving power and is turned on. Turn up the volume of the bar. Check the input cables to make sure they are connected securely. Turn up the volume of your television or cable box. Check mute status: Is the bar status light slowly blinking green? If so, press the MUTE button on the bar.
No sound from the subwoofer.
See section “Subwoofer does not power on.” Turn up the subwoofer volume using the remote control. Is the subwoofer status indicator blinking green? If so, the bar and subwoofer’s wireless connection has been lost. Turn off both the bar and subwoofer. Then turn them back on to re-establish communication. If this does not fix the issue, refer to the section “SYNCING THE BAR AND WIRELESS SUBWOOFER,” on page 7.
The sound coming from the bar is distorted.
Try turning down the volume of your audio source, if possible. Audio processing (see FAQ’s on page 12)— there may be audio processing occurring prior to reaching the bar. Disable this processing.
Bass output is not loud enough.
Turn up the subwoofer’s volume using the remote control. Place the subwoofer closer to a corner of the room. Move subwoofer closer to viewing location within the room.
The bar won’t learn my remote control commands.
Carefully follow the programming instructions on the previous page of this manual. Hold the remote steady and 1-2 feet from the front of the bar. Quickly “tap” the button on your existing remote until the status LED blinks green.
Note: The bar learns almost all IR commands, but some IR protocols cannot be programmed.
The volume of my television speakers gets louder than my SurroundBar 5000 system over time.
Turn off your TV speakers per the instructions on page 9 of this manual. When the remote control volume button is held down, your television may change volume levels faster than the bar. Use the buttons on the bar to adjust the volume of the bar to the correct balance with the TV speakers.
The subwoofer’s output is intermittent, or sounds weak or is distorted.
The wireless subwoofer could be too far away from the bar to receive a sufficiently strong signal. Try moving the subwoofer closer.
My Bluetooth device and bar will not disconnect.
Some Bluetooth devices will constantly attempt to connect to a paired device, so you must turn off the Bluetooth function on your device to allow other devices to connect to the bar.
The included remote control won’t work.
Ensure the battery’s protective plastic tab has been removed. Replace the battery (CR2025).

We did our best to provide a cable of adequate length; however, there might be a few setup instances in which the cable may be too short. If that is your situation, your local electronics store will have cables that meet your required length.
My audio sounds strange and distorted.
Your SurroundBar 5000 requires a clean, unaltered stereo or Dolby Digital signal for proper audio performance. If the sound from your SurroundBar 5000 is strange or distorted, then check the audio menus of whatever source(s) are connected to your SurroundBar 5000 and make sure any audio processing is turned off.
Why can’t I successfully program the SurroundBar 5000 to respond to my remote control?
My SurroundBar 5000 was responding to commands, but now it isn’t. What should I do?
In this rare event, simply turn off the power (switch located on the back of the bar), wait a few seconds, and then turn the power back on. This should restore control.
How do I erase previously learned remote control commands?
If you have programmed your SurroundBar 5000 to respond to a remote control and you no longer want it to do so, then you can erase the codes by pressing the LEARN key for about two seconds while the unit is in standby mode (power LED is red). The SurroundBar 5000 will continue to respond to the provided credit card remote control.
Can I adjust the subwoofer level control from the bar keypad if I cannot locate the provided remote control?
Yes. You can control the subwoofer volume from the bar keypad by tapping the LEARN key prior to using the volume buttons. When the power LED shines orange, the volume keys ( / ) control the subwoofer volume. Tap the LEARN key again when you are done with the adjustment.
To contact Customer Service/Technical Support:
If you have a question or comment, please feel free to call us or email us. In North America and Canada, call Polk Audio Customer Service: 800-377-7655 (M-F 9-5:30 EST) or via email polkcs@polkaudio.com. Outside the US, call 410-358-3600.
There are many remote control formats, and we have done our best to make the SurroundBar 5000 compatible with the most popular brands. However, there are likely some cases in which the bar will not be able to learn your remote codes. In this case, please use the remote control provided with the SurroundBar 5000 product or try a different universal remote control.
Note: RF only remotes will not work with this system.
How do I control the SurroundBar 5000?
There are three ways to control your SurroundBar 5000:
Use the touch-sensitive buttons on the front of the bar. Use the provided remote control. Program the SurroundBar 5000 to respond to your existing remote (see included instructions).
A Note Regarding Wireless Performance:
ike all wireless devices, your SurroundBar 5000 IHT may be susceptible
L
o RF interference from such sources as microwave ovens, WiFi computer
t
ystems, video game systems, cordless telephones, blue tooth systems,
s baby monitors and other devices. In particular, any devices operating in the
2.4GHz band may cause intermittent wireless connections between the SurroundBar 5000 speaker and the subwoofer. It is also possible that your
urroundBar 5000 IHT System may affect other wireless systems. For the
S
ost part, you can avoid wireless performance problems by physically
m
eparating these devices from your SurroundBar 5000 IHT System.
s
aintaining a distance of several feet or more between your SurroundBar 5000
M IHT speaker and any wireless device should prevent any mutual interference effects. If you do notice any subwoofer signal dropouts take care to identify the root cause (most commonly having other wireless devices too close)
nd resolve accordingly. Any interference effects from a microwave oven
a
ill cease once the oven stops operating and may be resolved on a long-term
w
asis by increasing the physical distance between your SurroundBar 5000 IHT
b System and the microwave oven.
