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.

Wall mounted bar

Overall Dimensions

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.

Keyhole Slots

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

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 ( ).

10 Polk Audio Customer Service 800-377-7655 (Outside USA & Canada: 410-358-3600)

3. To return to master volume, tap LEARN again,

LED ( ) turns green.

NOTE: Bass can also be adjusted with included remote control.

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).

FAQ’S (FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS)

My TV does not have an optical output.
How do I connect my audio?

You have several options for connecting your audio:

Use the optical output of your source unit (cable/satellite box,
DVD player, etc.) and connect directly to the SurroundBar 5000
using the supplied optical cable.
Use the 1/8" (3.5mm) analog / headphone output of your TV
(if available) and connect directly to the SurroundBar 5000
using the supplied 1/8" (3.5mm) to 1/8" (3.5mm) analog cable.

se the RCA audio outputs (white/red pair) on your TV

U
(if available) and connect directly to the SurroundBar 5000
using the supplied 1/8" (3.5mm) to 1/8" (3.5mm) analog
cable and 1/8" (3.5mm) to RCA adapter.

What if my provided optical cable is too short?

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

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.
