Wiring the Main Power Supply Plug (UK Only)
IMPORTANT NOTICE
The mains lead on this equipment is supplied with a moulded plug incorporating a fuse. The value of the fuse is
indicated on the pin face of the plug and if it requires replacing, a fuse approved to BS1362 of the same rating must
be used. Never use the plug with the fuse cover removed. If the cover is detachable and a replacement is required,
it must be of the same colour as the fuse fitted in the plug. Replacement covers are available from your dealer. If the
fitted plug is not suitable for the power points in your house or the cable is not long enough to reach a power point,
you should obtain a suitable safety approved extension lead or consult your dealer for assistance. However, if there is
no alternative to cutting off the plug, remove the fuse and then safely dispose of the plug. Do not connect the plug to a
mains socket as there is a risk of shock hazard from the bared flexible cord. Never attempt to insert bare wires directly
into a mains socket. A plug and fuse must be used at all times.
IMPORTANT
The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:– BLUE = NEUTRAL BROWN = LIVE
As these colours may not correspond to the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as
follows:– The wire coloured BLUE must be connected to the terminal marked with the letter N or coloured BLUE or
BLACK. The wire coloured BROWN must be connected to the terminal marked with the letter L or coloured BROWN
or RED.
WARNING : DO NOT CONNECT EITHER WIRE TO THE EARTH TERMINAL WHICH IS MARKED WITH THE
LETTER E OR BY THE EARTH SYMBOL , OR COLOURED GREEN OR GREEN AND YELLOW.

INSTALLING THE SOUNDBAR
INSTALLING THE WALL MOUNT
+ 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 anchors appropriate for the kind of wall you have (plaster board, iron board,
wood, etc.). If possible, fix the support screws into wall studs.
● Purchase wall mounting screws according to the type and thickness of the wall you will mount the Soundbar on.
- Diameter: M5
- Length: 35 mm or longer recommended.
● 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.
ENG

3. Push a pen tip or sharpened pencil tip through the centre of the B-TYPE images on each end of the Guide to
mark the holes for the supporting screws, and then remove the Wall Mount Guide.
4. Using an appropriately sized drill bit, drill a hole in the wall at each marking.
● If the markings do not correspond to the positions of studs, make sure you insert appropriate anchors or
mollies into the holes before you insert the support screws. If you use anchors or mollies, make sure the
holes you drill are large enough for the anchors or mollies you use.

5. Push a screw (not supplied) through each Holder-Screw, and then screw each screw firmly into a support
screw hole.
6. Use the two Screws (M4 x L12) to attach both Bracket-Wall Mount L and R to the Soundbar's bottom. For a
proper fit, make sure to align the bumps on the Soundbar to the holes on the brackets.

INSTALLATION
DETACHING THE SOUNDBAR FROM THE WALL
1. To separate the Soundbar from the wall mount, push it in the direction of the arrow, and then pull it away from the
wall as shown.
● 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 this may cause it to fall.
● For the optimal performance of a wall mount installation, install the speaker system at least
5 cm below the TV, if the TV is mounted on the wall.
● 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.

• You can enjoy better sound from the wireless subwoofer by selecting a Sound Effect. (See page 8)
● Before moving or installing the product, be sure to turn off the power and disconnect the power cord.
● If you use a device that uses the same frequency (2.4GHz) as the Soundbar near the Soundbar,
interference may cause some sound interruption.
● The maximum transmission distance of the wireless signal between the main unit and subwoofer is about
10 meters, 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 on the previous page to re-set 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.

+ More About 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, if:
- A part of your body is in contact with the receiving/transmitting system of the Bluetooth device or the
Soundbar.
- 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 Soundbar with the Bluetooth device while they are close together.
● The further the distance between the Soundbar and Bluetooth device, the worse the quality is.
If the distance exceeds the Bluetooth operational range, the connection is lost.
● In poor reception areas, the Bluetooth connection may not work properly.
● The Bluetooth connection only works when it is close to the unit. The connection will be automatically cut off if the
Bluetooth device is out of range. Even within range, the sound quality may be degraded by obstacles such as
walls or doors.
● This wireless device may cause electric interference during its operation.

Note that if there are multiple update files, you must load them onto the USB device singly and use them to update the
firmware one file at a time.
Please visit samsung.com or contact the Samsung call centre to receive more information about downloading update
files.
UPDATING PROCEDURE
1. Connect a Micro USB to USB adapter cable with a male USB 2.0 Micro USB plug (Type B) on one end and a
standard female 2.0 USB jack (Type A) on the other end to the micro USB jack on your Soundbar.
● The Micro USB to USB adapter cable is sold separately. To purchase, contact a Samsung Service Centre
or Samsung Customer Care.

Go to the Samsung website at (samsung.com/sec) search for the model name - select the customer support
option (the option name is subject to change)
3. Save the downloaded software to a USB stick and select "Extract Here" to unzip the folder.
