CONNECTIONS
●Before moving or installing the product, be sure to turn off the power and disconnect the power cord.
●If the main unit is powered off, the wireless subwoofer will be in standby mode and the STANDBY LED on
the upper side will come on after the Link indicator (Blue LED) blinks for 30 seconds.
●If you use a device that uses the same frequency (2.4GHz) as the Soundbar near the Soundbar,
interference may cause some sound interruption.
●The transmission distance of the wireless signal between the main unit and subwoofer is about 10 meters,
but may vary depending on your operating environment. If a steel-concrete or metallic wall is between the
main unit and the wireless subwoofer, the system may not operate at all, because the wireless signal
cannot penetrate metal.
●If the main unit doesn't make a wireless connection, follow steps 1-5 on the previous page to re-set the
connection between the main unit and wireless subwoofer.
●The wireless receiving antenna is built into the wireless subwoofer. Keep the unit away from water and
moisture.
●For optimal listening performance, make sure that the area around the wireless subwoofer location is clear
of any obstructions.
