Bluetooth Device
Top of Sound Bar
23
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.
