3.1 PRECAUTIONS
Read this manual carefully. It provides installation and operating instructions, information on Soul
Bar system configurations, and information that will help you get optimum performance from
your system. Visit levven.com/support or contact an authorized Levven Audio dealer for answers
to any questions you might have. All of us at Levven welcome your questions and comments.
3.2 PLACEMENT
The Soul Bar requires adequate clearance for optimum performance. Avoid blocking the speaker
in a cabinet or stacking with other equipment.
Take the weight of the sound bar into account if mounting on a wall. Make sure that you use
drywall/sheetrock anchors that can support the weight of the speaker.
When deciding the best location for Soul Bar, include the distance needed to transmit from out-
side spaces like the back yard or patio. The wireless SKAA transmitters broadcast to an 80-foot
(25-meter) diameter. For optimum wireless reception and audio performance, mount your Soul
Bar horizontally (feet down). Installing it vertically will yield a smaller wireless reception range.
3.3 NOTABLE PRODUCT FEATURES
1. Soul Bar can receive audio from any Bluetooth device and play the audio to its internal speak-
ers. This is called Bluetooth receive mode.
2. Soul Bar can receive audio from any Bluetooth device, play the audio to its internal speakers,
and re-broadcast the audio stream to up to four other SKAA receivers. This is called Bluetooth
relay mode.
3. Soul Bar can receive audio from any SKAA transmitter and play the audio to its internal
speakers. This is called SKAA receive mode.
4. Soul Bar remembers your favorite Bluetooth devices. The Bluetooth paired list holds up to
eight devices which have successfully paired with Soul Bar. Note that if you pair a ninth de-
vice, it will replace the device on the list which has least recently connected.
5. Soul Bar remembers your favorite SKAA transmitters. The SKAA green list holds up to ten
favorite transmitters.
6. Soul Bar automatically enters a low-power state when not in use. It wakes from its low
power state when a SKAA transmitter connects, a Bluetooth device connects, or a button is
pressed on the front panel.

and position the brackets so that at least 2 screws install into the stud. This will ensure a
safe and secure wall mounting. If you cannot position Soul Bar near a stud, use drywall
anchors rated for 10 kg (22 lbs) or greater. For safety reasons, make sure to install all four
screws in each bracket.
3.5.2 INSTALLING SOUL BAR
First make sure the AC power cord is disconnected from the wall outlet. Install the AC
power cord into Soul Bar. Position Soul Bar over the brackets that are installed on the wall
and gently lower Soul Bar onto the brackets.
3.6 AC POWER INPUT
Soul Bar will operate between 100-240 AC line voltage with a line frequency of either 50 Hz or 60
Hz. There is no need to convert or adjust the unit in any way.
Note: If you are going to be away from home for an extended period such as a month-long
vacation, it is a sensible precaution to unplug it (as well as other audio and video components)
while you are away.

4.1 MODES
Soul Bar has three modes of operation. Click the gear button to cycle between modes.
SKAA Receive Mode
In this mode, Soul Bar will receive audio from any SKAA transmitter.
Bluetooth Receive Mode
In this mode, Soul Bar will receive audio from any Bluetooth device including smartphones, tab-
lets, TVs, PCs, and many others. Soul Bar works as an ordinary Bluetooth speaker. Click the Blue-
tooth button to pair with your phone. Hold the Bluetooth button to clear the paired list.
Bluetooth Relay Mode

4.2 CLUSTERING
Clustering is a way to synchronize the bonding and volume of multiple SKAA wireless audio
receivers, e.g. a Soul Bar soundbar and a Soul Sub subwoofer. Clustered products function as
though they are a single device. When clustered together, any change in volume or source con-
nection applies to all products simultaneously.
One device in the cluster behaves as the master. Any change in volume or source connection to
the master is reflected automatically to the slave devices.

5. TROUBLESHOOTING
Issues in audio systems most often stem from poor or wrong connections, or improper control settings.
If you encounter problems, isolate the area of diculty, check the control settings, determine the cause

12
of the fault and make the necessary changes. If you are unable to get sound from Soul Bar, refer to giv-
en suggestions for following conditions:
5.1 POWER LED IS NOT ON
No main power to Soul Bar. Check AC power connections at the amplifier and the AC outlet.
5.2 NO SOUND
If the product is getting AC power, but is producing no sound, check the Power LED. If Soul Bar’s
SKAA Bond LED is dim, it means that Soul Bar is seeking connection, check the following condi-
tions,
• Is Soul Bar bonded to a wireless streaming device?
• Is the streaming device turned on?
• Is audio playing on the wireless streaming device?
• Is the streaming device on mute?
• Is the volume on the streaming device set too low?
• Is audio playing on the wired device?
• Is the volume on the wired device set too low?
Note: Soul Bar allows only one connection at a given time to play music. If a device is already
bonded with Soul Bar and you are trying to play music from another source, disconnect the de-
vice which is currently bonded with Soul Bar before bonding the desired device with Soul Bar to
play music.
If the SKAA Bond LED is on bright solid, it means Soul Bar has successfully bonded with a device,
check all connections and control settings on associated components.
