• If you use a device that uses the same frequency (5.8GHz) as the Soundbar near the Soundbar,
interference may cause some sound interruption.

• The maximum transmission distance of the main unit’s wireless signal is about 10 m, 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.

CAUTION

• Wireless receiving antennas are 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 and the

ENG - 20

• When connecting a Samsung TV that supports the eARC function, “eARC” appears on the
display and the sound is heard.

• If “T V ARC” does not appear in the display window of the Soundbar main unit, conrm that the
HDMI cable is connected to the correct port.

• Use the volume buttons on the TV’s remote control to change the volume on the Soundbar.

NOTES

• When you connect the TV that supports the HDMI ARC (Audio Return Channel) to the Soundbar
with an HDMI cable, you can transmit the digital video and audio data without connecting a
separate optical cable.

• We recommend you use a coreless HDMI cable if possible. If you use a cored HDMI cable, use one
whose diameter is less than 14 mm.

• This function is not available if the HDMI cable does not support ARC.

• When the audio in a broadcast is encoded in Dolby Digital and the “Digital Output Audio Format” on
your TV is set to PCM, we recommend that you change the setting to Dolby Digital. When the
setting on the TV is changed, you will experience better sound quality. (The TV menu may use
different words for Dolby Digital and PCM depending on the TV manufacturer.)

Method 2. Connecting using an Optical Cable

Pre-connection Checklist

Installation Precautions

• Install on a vertical wall only.

• Do not install in a place with high
temperature or humidity.

• Verify whether the wall is strong enough to
support the product’s weight. If not, reinforce
the wall or choose another installation point.

• Purchase and use the xing screws or
anchors appropriate for the kind of wall you
have (plaster board, iron board, wood, etc.). If

possible, x the support screws into wall

studs.

• Purchase wall mounting screws according to
the type and thickness of the wall you want to
mount the Soundbar on.

– Diameter: M5
– Length: 35 mm or longer recommended.

• Connect cables from the unit to external
devices before you install the Soundbar on
