USING BLUETOOTH MODE
Your sound bar supports music streaming from smartphones, tablets, and computers with Bluetooth capability.
Device compatibility will vary, see your device’s documentation for more information.
• Once you have paired your source device to the sound bar, as long as you stay within range of the sound bar,
your device should remain paired.
• If the input is changed, the Bluetooth device will disconnect.
• If the source is changed back to Bluetooth, any paired Bluetooth device will reconnect automatically.
Your sound bar is not equipped with a microphone,
so it cannot operate as a hands-free device for a
smartphone.
Maximizing Signal
A Bluetooth signal has a range of up to 30 feet. Keep in mind that Bluetooth is a compressed audio format, so
streamed music may lose some integrity when compared to a wired connection.
Try the following if your sound quality is less than optimal:
• If you hear any break-up or disconnect while streaming music from your device, move the source device
closer to the sound bar.
• Be sure that there are no solid obstructions in the line-of-sight between the sound bar and the source
device.
• Other wireless devices can aect Bluetooth range, including wireless security cameras, wireless video
baby monitors, cordless phones, and microwave ovens. Turning o or moving these devices may improve
Bluetooth range.
Reduce the volume levels on your device and on the
sound bar before pressing Play. High volume levels
can damage your hearing.

Binding Arbitration Agreement; Class Action Waiver (U.S. Residents Only)
UNLESS YOU HAVE BROUGHT AN ELIGIBLE CLAIM IN SMALL CLAIMS COURT OR
HAVE OPTED OUT AS DESCRIBED BELOW, ANY CONTROVERSY OR CLAIM RELATING
IN ANY WAY TO YOUR VIZIO PRODUCT, INCLUDING ANY CONTROVERSY OR CLAIM
ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS WARRANTY, A BREACH OF THIS WARRANTY,
OR THE VIZIO PRODUCT’S SALE, CONDITION OR PERFORMANCE, WILL BE SETTLED
BY BINDING ARBITRATION ADMINISTERED BY THE AMERICAN ARBITRATION
ASSOCIATION AND CONDUCTED BY A SINGLE ARBITRATOR APPOINTED BY THE

this warranty concerns a transaction in interstate or international commerce, the
Federal Arbitration Act will apply.
The ling fees to begin and carry out arbitration will be shared between you and
VIZIO, but in no event will your fees ever exceed the amount allowable by the
American Arbitration Association, at which point VIZIO will cover all additional
administrative fees and expenses. VIZIO waives its right to recover attorneys’ fees in

arbitrator may disclose the existence, content, or results of any arbitration under this
warranty without the prior written consent of you and VIZIO.
ANY DISPUTE, WHETHER IN ARBITRATION, IN COURT, OR OTHERWISE, WILL BE
CONDUCTED SOLELY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS. VIZIO AND YOU AGREE THAT
NO PARTY WILL HAVE THE RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE
ARBITRATED AS A CLASS ACTION, A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTION, OR IN
ANY OTHER PROCEEDING IN WHICH EITHER PARTY ACTS OR PROPOSES TO ACT IN A
REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY.
NO ARBITRATION OR PROCEEDING WILL BE JOINED, CONSOLIDATED, OR COMBINED
WITH ANOTHER ARBITRATION OR PROCEEDING WITHOUT THE PRIOR WRITTEN
CONSENT OF ALL PARTIES TO ANY SUCH ARBITRATION OR PROCEEDING.
