HELP & TROUBLESHOOTING
• Press the POWER button on the remote control or on the top of your Sound Bar.
• Ensure the power cords are securely connected.
There is no power.
• Plug a different device into the electrical outlet to verify that the outlet is working correctly.
• To conserve power, the Sound Bar shuts off automatically after 30 minutes if not in use.
• If an optional subwoofer is connected, turn the power switch to on.
• Increase the volume. Press Volume Up on the remote control or on the top of your Sound Bar.
• Press MUTE on the remote to ensure the Sound Bar is not muted.
• Select a different input source (Analog or Digital).
There is no sound from
the Sound Bar.
• Be sure the audio cable coming from the TV is connected to an audio output, not an audio input.
• Ensure all cables and wires are securely connected.
I hear buzzing or
humming.
• Connect a different source device (TV, Blu-ray player, etc) to see if the buzzing persists. If it does not, the problem may
be with the original device.
• Connect your device to a different input on the Sound Bar.
• To activate SRS TSHD, press the Menu button the remote and use the arrow keys to scroll to the TSHD screen to toggle
between on and off.
• To listen to Dolby Digital, your device must be playing content in Dolby Digital format. Dolby Digital is only
available over Digital Coaxial, or Digital Optical connections.
• Digital formats other than Dolby Digital are not supported and no audio will be heard if these are input to the bar over
optical or coaxial.
How do I listen to
SRS TruSurround or
Dolby Digital?
When should I use
Night Mode or SRS
TruVolume™?
• Night Mode reduces bass output of the sound bar so that listening to the bar is less likely to disturb others. SRS
TruVolume™ reduces high volume content like commercials and increases low volume content, like dialog, so that you
have a more uniform listening experience. Night Mode and SRS TruVolume can be turned on independently or together.
• Adjust the bass and treble levels by pressing the Menu button on the remote and adjusting the settings.
• Try enabling/disabling SRS TruSurround by pressing the Menu button on the remote and adjusting the settings.
• Disable Night Mode if bass level is too low by pressing the Menu button on the remote and adjusting the settings.
I would like to adjust the
sound on the Sound Bar.
I want to return my
Sound Bar to factory
settings.
• Press and hold the Power, Volume Up, and Volume Down buttons on the Sound Bar for 10 seconds to return it to its
factory default settings.

INFORMATION ON HEARING DAMAGE
Understanding Noise Induced Hearing Loss
Loud Sounds + Time = Hearing Loss
Exposure to loud sounds can damage your hearing, causing hearing loss and tinnitus
(ringing or buzzing in the ears). While a variety of things can lead to hearing loss,
including aging and side effects of certain medications, the most common cause of
non-age-related hearing damage is loud noise. Extremely loud sounds, such as gun
shots or firecrackers at close range, can cause immediate hearing damage. Hearing
damage can also occur over time due to repeated exposure to loud sounds such as
industrial noise or loud music. With continued exposure to loud noises, ears may
become accustomed to the sound level, which may result in permanent damage to
hearing without any noticeable discomfort.
The more time you spend exposed to loud sounds, the more likely you are to damage
your hearing. All of the loud sounds that you are exposed to during a day add up -
continued exposure to loud sounds can prevent your ears from recovering and also
cause additional damage.
Symptoms of Hearing Loss
While not all noise induced hearing loss is noticeable, symptoms may include
a sensation of pressure or fullness in your ears, ringing in your ears, or muffled
speech. If you experience these symptoms or believe you may have experienced
noise induced hearing loss, you should have your hearing checked by an ear doctor
or audiologist.
Temporary and Permanent Hearing Loss
Noise induced hearing loss and tinnitus may be temporary or permanent. Ears
typically recover from temporary hearing damage in a short time. However, ears may
not recover completely, and some damage may be permanent. Repeated exposure
to loud sound can cause more and more damage, and eventually lead to serious
hearing problems. Scientists generally agree that, over time, exposure to harmful
levels of noise can lead to permanent noise induced hearing loss by damaging and/
or destroying the inner ear’s sensory hair cells.
CARE & MAINTENANCE
Do not use volatile solvents (such as toluene, rosin, or alcohol) to clean this product.
Such chemicals may damage it. Do not spray cleaners directly on the product. To
clean this product, gently wipe it with a clean, dry, soft cloth.
