Connecting to the TV
Method 1: OPTICAL / COAXIAL Connection
Use an optical cable (not included) / coaxial cable (included)
to connect the soundbar’s OPTICAL / COAXIAL socket to the
OPTICAL OUT / COAXIAL OUT socket of the external device.
The simplest option is to connect your soundbar directly to
your TV. If you connect the soundbar to another external
device (e.g. Blu-Ray player), you will hear the sound from that
device through the soundbar.
After the connection is complete,
1. Press on the unit or remote control to switch on the unit.
2. Press SOURCE repeatedly to select Optical or Coaxial
mode to play audio from your input device.
• The unit may not be able to decode all digital audio formats
from the input source. In this case, the unit will mute. This is
NOT a defect. Ensure that the audio setting of the input source
(e.g. TV, game console, DVD player, etc.) is set to PCM with
optical input.
• Before connecting the optical cable, remove the protective cap
of the OPTICAL socket.
DO NOT connect the soundbar with the TV through its RCA sockets
or headphone socket.
Ensure the unit is disconnected from the mains socket before connecting it to other devices.
