The Subwoofer's linking ID is preset at the factory and the main unit and subwoofer should link (connect
wirelessly) automatically when the main unit is turned on. If the LINK indicator does not light when the main
unit and subwoofer are turned on, please set the ID by following the procedure below.

1. Plug the power cords of the main unit and subwoofer into an AC wall outlet.

2. Press the ID SET button on the back of the subwoofer with a small, pointed object for 5 seconds.

• The STANDBY indicator is turned off and the LINK indicator (Blue LED) blinks quickly.

mode),

press MUTE on the remote control for 5 seconds.

4. The ID SET message appears on the main unit’s OLED display.

5. To Finalise the link, turn the main unit’s power on while the

subwoofer’s LINK LED blinks.

• The main unit and the subwoofer are now linked (connected).

• The LINK indicator (blue LED) on the subwoofer is turned on.

• You can enjoy better sound from the wireless subwoofer by selecting

the sound effect. (See page 20)

▪ Before moving or installing the product, be sure to turn off the power and disconnect the power

cord.

▪ If the main unit is powered off, the wireless subwoofer will be in the standby mode and the

STANDBY LED on the upper side will come on after the LINK indicator (Blue LED) blinks for 30
seconds.

▪ If you use a device that uses the same frequency (2.4GHz) near the system, interference may

cause some sound interruption.

▪ The transmission distance of the wireless signal between the main unit and sub is about 33 ft.,

but may vary depending on your operating environment. If a steel-concrete or metallic wall is
between the main unit and the wireless subwoofer, the system may not operate at all, because
the wireless signal cannot penetrate metal.

▪ If the main unit doesn't make a wireless connection, follow steps 1-5 above to retry the

connection between the main unit and wireless subwoofer.

▪ The wireless receiving antenna is built into the wireless subwoofer. Keep the unit away from

water and moisture.

▪ For optimal listening performance, make sure that the area around the wireless subwoofer

location is clear of any obstructions.

- It is subject to electrical variation from obstructions caused by a wall, corner, or office partition.

- It is exposed to electrical interference from same frequency-band devices including medical equipment,
microwave ovens, and wireless LANs.

• Pair the Air Track with the Bluetooth device while they are close together.

• The further the distance is between Air Track and Bluetooth device, the worse the quality is.

If the distance exceeds the Bluetooth operational range, the connection is lost.
