the Subwoofer to the Sound Bar if there is no sound  
coming from the Subwoofer.  
When the green LED on both the Sound Bar and  
Subwoofer are lit, the two are paired.A slow blink  
means the two are not paired.  
What does pairing mean?  
Pairing means to wirelessly connect.

USING BLUETOOTH MODE  
Your Sound Bar supports music streaming from smartphones, tablets, and computers with Bluetooth capability.  
Device compatibility will vary, see your devices 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, even if you change the input on the Sound Bar.  
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 affect Bluetooth range, including wireless security cameras, wireless video  
baby monitors, cordless phones, and microwave ovens. Turning off 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.

ADVANCED SETUP

to the Sound Bar (devices shown are  
examples you can use any device).  
Back of Sound Bar  
To listen to a device, change the input  
source on the Sound Bar.
