INSTALLING THE WALL MOUNT
You can use the wall mount bracket to mount this unit on a wall.
Installation Precautions
• Install on a vertical wall only.
• For the installation, avoid a location with high temperature or humidity, or a wall that cannot sustain the weight of
the set.
• Check the strength of the wall. If the wall is not strong enough to support the unit, reinforce the wall or install the
unit on a different wall that can support the unit's weight.
• Purchase and use the fixing screws or anchor appropriate for the kind of wall you have (plaster board, iron board,
wood, etc.). If possible, fix the support screws into wall studs.
• Connect cables from the unit to external devices before you install it on the wall.
• Make sure the unit is turned off and unplugged before you install it. Otherwise, it may cause an electric shock.
1. Place the wall mount bracket on a wall surface and then
secure it with two screws. If you are hanging the unit below a
TV, be sure to install the wall mount bracket so that the arrow
(
) is placed in the center of the TV. Also make sure the unit
is at least two inches (5 cm) below the TV.

2. Align the two HOLDER-SCREWs (screw holders) with the
screw holes on the left and right sides of the MAIN UNIT, and
then fix them to the main unit with the supplied screws.
3. Fit the unit into the corresponding slots of the wall mount
bracket. For secure installation, make sure the mounting
studs slide firmly down into the bottom of the slots.
4. The installation is complete.
2 inches (5 cm) or more
Do not hang onto the installed unit and avoid striking or dropping the unit.
Secure the unit firmly to the wall so that it does not fall off. If the unit falls off, it may cause an injury or
damage the product.
When the unit is installed on a wall, please make sure that children do not pull any of the connecting
cables, as it may cause it to fall.
For the optimal performance of a wall mount installation, install the speaker system at least 2 inches (5 cm)
below the TV.
For your safety, if you do not mount the unit on the wall, install it on a secure, flat surface where it is
unlikely to fall.

CONNECTING THE WIRELESS SUBWOOFER
E
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 and subwoofer are 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. Complete this process within
30 seconds after the Link Indicator on the subwoofer starts blinking.
1. Plug the power cords of the main unit and subwoofer into an AC wall outlet.
2. Confirm that the main unit is off (in STANDBY Mode).
3. Press the ID SET button on the back of the subwoofer with a small, pointed object for 5 seconds.
• The LINK INDICATOR (Blue LED) on the subwoofer blinks quickly.
4. While the main unit is powered off (in STANDBY mode), press and hold
the MUTE (
) on the remote control for 5 seconds.
5. The ID SET message appears on the main unit’s OLED display.
6. To finalize the link, turn the main unit’s power on while the subwoofer’s
LINK LED blinks.
• The main unit and the subwoofer should now be linked (connected).
• The LINK indicator (blue LED) on the subwoofer should be turned on
and solid blue.
• If the LINK indicator is not solid blue, the linking process has failed.
Turn off the main unit and start again from Step 2.
• You can enjoy better sound from the wireless subwoofer by selecting the a sound effect. (See page 24)
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) as the unit near the unit, interference
may cause some sound interruption.
The transmission distance of the wireless signal between the main unit and subwoofer 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.

ATTACHING THE TOROIDAL FERRITE CORE TO THE POWER CORD OF THE SUBWOOFER
Attaching the Toroidal ferrite core to the power cord of the subwoofer
helps prevent RF interference from radio signals.
1. Pull the fixing tab of the Toroidal ferrite core to open it.
2. Make two loops around the core with the power cable of the
subwoofer. See the illustration below.
3. Attach the Toroidal ferrite core to the Subwoofer power cord as shown
in the illustration below, and then press it until it clicks.
LOOPING THE POWER CABLE AROUND THE TOROIDAL CORE
Lift up to release the lock
and open the core.
Make two loops around the core
with the power cable. (Start
winding 5 to 10 cm [2 - 4 in.] away
from the core).
Close the lock.
AUTO SOUND CALIBRATION (ASC)
The ASC function measures the distance between the Air Track main unit, sub woofer, and your listening position
and calibrates the volume levels and frequency characteristics of the main unit and sub woofer to provide optimum
sound.
1. Place the ASC Microphone at the listening position.
• You should place the ASC Microphone at the actual listening
location first, and then connect the ASC Microphone to the ASC
IN jack on the Air Track for precise calibration.
2. Connect the ASC Microphone to the ASC IN jack on the Air track.
The Calibration starts automatically and takes about 2 minutes.
• If you turn off the Air Track or unplug the ASC microphone
before the completion message appears on the display,
calibration will be cancelled and incomplete. If this occurs, plug
the ASC microphone into the ASC IN jack again.
• After calibration has been completed the first time, you can
re-run the calibration process. Place the ASC microphone at the
listening position, insert the ASC Microphone plug into the ASC
jack, and then select the ASC mode by pressing the Sound
Effect button on the remote control.
During the ASC calibration, no other buttons work except the power button.
ASC will abort with an error if you change the set’s position in the middle of the ASC calibration.

BLUETOOTH
You can use a Bluetooth device to enjoy music with high quality stereo sound, all without wires!
What is Bluetooth?
Bluetooth is a technology that enables Bluetooth-compliant devices to interconnect easily with
each other using a short wireless connection.
• A Bluetooth device may cause noise or malfunction, depending on usage, when:
- A part of your body is in contact with the receiving/transmitting system of the Bluetooth device or
the Air Track.
- 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 between the Air Track and Bluetooth device, the worse the quality is.

SOFTWARE UPGRADE
Samsung may offer upgrades for the Crystal Surround Air Track's
system firmware in the future.
If an upgrade is offered, you can upgrade the firmware by
connecting a USB drive with the firmware upgrade stored on it to the
USB port on your Air Track.
Note that if there are multiple upgrade files, you must load them onto
the USB drive singly and use them to upgrade the firmware one at a
time.
Please visit Samsung.com or contact the Samsung call center to
receive more information about downloading upgrades files.
Insert a USB drive containing the firmware upgrade into the USB port on the main unit.
Do not disconnect the power or remove the USB drive while upgrades are being applied. The main unit will
turn off automatically after completing the firmware upgrade.
When software is upgraded, settings you have made will return to their default (factory) settings.
We recommend you write down your settings so that you can easily reset them after the upgrade.
Once the software upgrade is completed, turn off the product and then press and hold the () button for a
while to reset the product.
If the firmware fails to upgrade, we recommend formatting the USB device in FAT16 and trying again.
For upgrading purposes, do not format the USB drive in NTFS format because it is not a supported file
system.
Depending on the manufacturer, some USB devices may not be supported.
