Listening to Bluetooth enabled devices
Bluetooth wireless technology is a short-range radio
technology that enables wireless communication
between various types of digital devices, such as
mobile phone or computer. It operates within a range
of about 10 metres (30 feet) without the hassle of
having to use cables to connect these devices.
This sound bar supports the following:
Communication System: Bluetooth Specification
version 2.1 Bluetooth + Enhanced Data Rate
(EDR).
Support Profile : A2DP (Advanced Audio Distribution
Profile) and AVRCP (Audio/Video Remote Control
Profile)
Notes when using unit with a mobile phone
● This unit cannot be used to talk over the
telephone even when there is a Bluetooth
connection made to a mobile phone.
● Please refer to the operating manual supplied
with the mobile phone for details on operation of
your mobile phone while transmitting the sound
using a Bluetooth connection.
■ Pairing Bluetooth devices
Bluetooth devices need to be initially paired first
before they can exchange data. Once paired, it is
not necessary to pair them again unless:
● pairing is made with more than 99 devices.
Pairing can only be made one device at
a time. This sound bar can be paired to
a maximum of 99 devices. If subsequent
device is paired, the oldest device paired, will
be deleted and replaced with the new one.
● pairing information is deleted while repairing,

Listening to Bluetooth enabled devices (continued)
Notes:
● If a device such as microwave oven, wireless
LAN card, Bluetooth device or any other device
that uses the same 2.4 GHz frequency is placed
near the system some sound interruption may
be heard.
● The transmission distance of the wireless
signal between the device and the sound bar
is about 10 m, but may vary depending on
your operating environment. If a steel concrete
or metallic wall is between the device and the
sound bar, the system may not operate at all,
because the wireless signal cannot penetrate
metal.
● If this sound bar or the source device is turned
off before Bluetooth connection is completed,
pairing will not be completed and the pairing
information will not be memorised. Repeat step
1 onwards to start pairing again.
● To pair with other devices, repeat steps 1 - 5
for each device.
This sound bar can be paired to a maximum
of 99 devices. If subsequent device is paired,
the oldest device paired, will be deleted and
replaced with the new one.
● Once a device is ousted or deleted from the
pairing list, the pairing information for the
device is also deleted. To listen to the sound
from the device again, it needs to be re-paired.
Perform steps 1 - 5 to pair the device again.
● HT-SB32D supports Bluetooth profile AVRCP
1.4. If your device supports the same profile
(refer to device manufacturer’s specification),
HT-SB32D is able to control the volume of
the device.
Note:
Some music applications do not support
this feature, hence there will be no volume
synchronisation between your device and
the sound bar even if your Bluetooth device
supports such profile.

Troubleshooting chart
■ Condensation
Sudden temperature changes, storage or operation
in an extremely humid environment may cause
condensation inside the cabinet or on the transmitter
on the remote control.
Condensation can cause the sound bar to malfunction. If this happens, leave the power on until normal
operation is possible (about 1 hour). Wipe off any
condensation on the transmitter with a soft cloth
before operating the sound bar.
■ Factory reset, clearing all setting
Make sure to disconnect all audio input cables
attached to the sound bar before performing the
factory reset.
1. Press ON/STANDBY button to enter the power
standby mode.
2. While pressing down the PAIRING button,
press the ON/STANDBY button.
3. Press the ON/STANDBY button again.
(PAIRING indicator will turn BLUE.)
Caution:
This operation will erase all data stored in memory.
■ If problem occurs during operation
When this product is subject to strong external interference (mechanical shock, excessive static electricity, abnormal supply voltage due to lightning, etc.) or if
it is operated incorrectly, it may malfunction.
If such a problem occurs, do the following:
1 Set the sound bar to the standby mode
and turn the power on again.
2 If the sound bar is not restored in the
previous operation, unplug and plug in the
sound bar, and then turn the power on.
Maintenance
■ Cleaning the cabinet
Periodically wipe the cabinet with a soft cloth.
Cautions:
● Do not use chemicals for cleaning (petrol, paint
thinner, etc.). It may damage the cabinet finish.
● Do not apply oil to the inside of each component.
It may cause malfunctions.
