Setup location

The space in front of or under the TV
set is an ideal location.

Location tips

• Select a stable, level base.
In case of wall mounting, follow the
instructions in the next chapter.

• Make sure that the environment is
clean and free from dust.

• Select a location away from heat
sources and direct sunlight.

• Do not place any heavy objects on
the cables or the device.

15 • Cinebar Pro

Wall mounting

Proceed with care when mounting the
Cinebar Pro on the wall and follow the
instructions below.

You will need the following material
to mount the product on a solid stone
wall (not included in the package
contents):

• 2 dowels (ø 8 mm)

• 2 screws, 5 × 45 mm, screw head
= ø approx. ø 8–10 mm

CAUTION

Risk of injury/damage!

– Only qualified persons may

mount the Cinebar Pro on
the wall.

– The device may only be

mounted on a suitable,
solid wall. Special dowels or
anchors may be necessary
when mounting the product
on lightweight walls. Consult
a qualified professional in
this case.

– Make sure that there are no

cables or pipes in the drilling
areas. Before you drill, use a
metal detector to check the
applicable areas. Otherwise,
there is a risk of electric
shock/short circuit!

1. Space the two keyhole openings
(7) in the wall where you would
like to mount the Cinebar Pro at a
distance of 64.3 cm apart. Use a
ruler, pencil and spirit level for this.

2. Use a metal detector to check the
drill areas. If necessary, select
another area for mounting.

holes, which are approx. 50 mm
deep, at the marked positions.

4. Insert 2 dowels (ø 8 mm) all the
way in the drill holes.

5. Screw one screw (5x45 mm)
into each dowel until there is
approx.3–5 mm of space between
the wall and the screw head.

(7) (7)

6. Press the Cinebar Pro up against
the wall so that the screws vanish
in the keyhole openings (7).

7. Now pull the Cinebar Pro down so

TV set

If your TV is equipped with an ARC
capable HDMI jack, connect it via the
HDMI TV jack (14). You will need an
ARC capable HDMI cable for this.

The ARC (audio return channel) HDMI
function plays the television audio via
HDMI. With some TV sets, this func­tion must be activated in the menu
and in most cases, only one HDMI
connection is ARC capable (see the
user manual for the TV set).

If your TV set does not support the
ARC HDMI function, you can also
connect it to the analogue (AUX IN
(12)) or one of the digital (OPTICAL
IN (11)/COAXIAL IN (18)) inputs. Use
the remote control to set the inputs to
be used in the menu (see „TV Source“
on page 26).

HDMI source

You can connect a source device
with digital sound and picture to
each HDMI IN 1-4 jack (13) (e.g. a
sat receiver, Blu ray player, game
console).

You do not also have to connect this
source device to your TV set. The
video signal from these devices is
looped through and forwarded to the
television set via HDMI TV (14).

18 • Cinebar Pro

Analogue source

You can connect a source device with
analogue sound (e.g. a CD player or
TV set) to each AUX IN 1/2 jack (12).
For each jack, you will need a stereo
cable with a 3.5-mm jack plug to do
so.

(11) (12)

RESET

Optical-digital source

You can connect the optical digital
sound output of a source device to
the OPTICAL IN jack (11). You will
need an optical cable with a TOSLINK
plug for this. Your source device
requires either an optical 3.5 mm
plug or also a TOSLINK plug.

Coaxial digital source

You can connect the coaxial digital
audio outputs of a source device to
the COAXIAL IN jack (18). You will
need a coaxial cable with RCA plugs
to do so.

(16) (17) (18)

REAR OUT

Rear speakers

For 4.1 or 4.0 operation, connect the
rear channels (rear) to the analogue
output LINEOUT(17).

You can connect a power amplifier or
active speaker but also a radio trans­mission system to this jack. You will
need a stereo cable with a 3.5-mm
jack plug to do so.

If you use active speakers with a
radio connection (e.g. “Effect”),
enable the connection in the “Wire­less” menu (see page 24).

Subwoofer

You can connect an active subwoofer
to the SUB OUT jack (16) using an
RCA cable.

If you use an active subwoofer with a
radio connection, enable the connec­tion in the “Wireless” menu (see page

25).
