INSTALLING THE WALL MOUNT

Installation Precautions

  • Install on a vertical wall only.
  • Do not install in a place with high temperature or humidity.
  • Verify whether the wall is strong enough to support the product’s weight. If not, reinforce the wall or choose another installation point.
  • Purchase and use the fixing screws or anchors appropriate for the kind of wall you have (plasterboard, iron board, wood, etc.).
    If possible, fix the support screws into wall studs.
  • Purchase wall mounting screws according to the type and thickness of the wall you want to mount the Soundbar on.
    – Diameter: M5
    – Length: 1 3/8 inches (35 mm) or longer recommended.
  • Connect cables from the unit to external devices before you install the Soundbar on the wall.
  • Make sure the unit is turned off and unplugged from the power source before you install it. Otherwise, it may cause an electric shock.

    Question

    How do I return to the previous channel using this Samsung remote control?

    Answer

    Based on the provided manual for this Samsung Soundbar remote control, there is no specific "Previous Channel" or "Return" button for television channel navigation. This remote is designed primarily for Soundbar functions such as Source, Sound Mode, and Volume.

    If you are using a standard Samsung TV remote (which often looks similar), please try the following:

    • For Smart Remotes: Press the 123 or Color button to bring up the on-screen menu, where a "Return" or "Previous Channel" option usually appears.
    • For Standard Remotes: Look for a button labeled PRE-CH or an arrow icon circling back (Return).
    • Holding the button: On some Samsung remotes, the CH (Channel) button can be pressed inward (like a button) rather than toggled up or down to return to the previous channel.

    If your remote matches the one in the manual (Model AH81-13933G-00), it is intended for a Soundbar and does not have a built-in channel return feature for a TV.

    Question

    The remote control shown in the manual is different from the one I have for my Samsung Soundbar Series 6. The story is incorrect.

    Answer

    Thank you for bringing this to our attention.

Manuals.plus strives to provide accurate information, and we apologize for any confusion this may have caused. We will review the manual and product association to ensure accuracy. If you can provide the specific model number of your Samsung Soundbar Series 6, we may be able to help you find the correct manual for your remote control.

  3. There is no explanation for the 4 colored dots on the remote for our new Samsung 50” tv. The remote is a very poor design.

    Question

    What is the purpose of the four colored dots on the Samsung TV remote control?

    Answer

    On Samsung TV remotes, the four colored buttons (Red, Green, Yellow, and Blue) are context-sensitive shortcut keys. Their specific functions change depending on the app or menu you are currently using.

    • In Apps: Many streaming apps (like Netflix or YouTube) use these buttons for specific shortcuts, such as searching, changing profiles, or sorting content. The screen will usually display a small icon matching the button color to show its current function.
    • Teletext/Data Services: In certain regions, these buttons are used to navigate Teletext pages or interactive broadcast services.
    • Settings/Menus: Occasionally, they are used as shortcuts for specific settings or to perform actions like 'Delete' or 'Edit' within system menus.

    If your remote is the Samsung Smart Remote (minimalist design), these functions are often accessed by pressing the 123/Color button to bring up a virtual menu on the screen where you can select the colors using the directional pad.

    Question

    How do I use the Samsung soundbar remote control and what do the buttons do?

    Answer

    The Samsung soundbar remote uses icons rather than text. Here is a guide to the button functions based on the user manual:

    • Power (Top Button): Turns the soundbar on (Cyan blinks 1x) or off (Red blinks 3x).
    • Source (Square with arrow): Press to switch between connected inputs (e.g., Optical, HDMI, or Bluetooth).
    • Bluetooth PAIR: Located below the Source button, used to put the soundbar into pairing mode.
    • Directional Pad (Up/Down/Left/Right): Used for navigation and adjusting specific sound settings.
    • Play/Pause & Mute: The center button in the middle section is Play/Pause, while the button with the speaker icon is Mute.
    • SOUND MODE: Press to cycle through audio presets like "Standard," "Music," or "Adaptive Sound."
    • Sound Control (Gear icon): Press to select settings like Treble, Bass, or Sync, then use the Up/Down buttons to adjust levels.
    • VOLUME (Silver Bar): Push the bar up or down to adjust the main volume.
    • WOOFER (Silver Bar): Push the bar up or down to specifically adjust the bass/subwoofer level.

    To use this with your Vizio TV, ensure the soundbar is connected via HDMI (ARC) or Optical cable. If using HDMI (ARC), you may be able to control the volume using your Vizio remote if CEC is enabled in the TV settings.

  5. Instructions on the remote are literally worthless because because you skipped the very first and critical instruction! Starting at step one you show a diagram of 5 dots, where the middle dot is a different function per color. First, why are there five dots when only one is being used, apparently an LED? And more importantly, where are these dots supposed to be? On the remote? On the sound bar? or on the TV.

    I am finding no dots, LEDs or lights in general with the soundbar remote included with the soundbar. Assuming it was defective, I ordered another one which also appears to be dead. I finally got one function to work and actually turned the TV off but it is extremely difficult to trouble shoot when one doesn’t know where this information is supposed to be and/or what the remote is actually supposed to do.

    Question

    I am having trouble understanding the remote control instructions, specifically regarding the five dots diagram and the location of the LED lights. I've tried two remotes and can't seem to get them to work properly. Can you clarify where these dots/LEDs are supposed to be and what the remote is supposed to do?

    Answer

    The diagram with five dots on page 1 of the manual refers to the Multicolour LED indicator on the Soundbar itself, not on the remote control. This LED changes color and blinks to indicate various statuses and functions of the Soundbar, such as power on/off, Bluetooth pairing, and sound mode changes.

    For example:

    • Power button: When you press the Power button on the remote, the Soundbar's LED will blink Cyan once for 'On' and Red three times for 'Off'.
    • Bluetooth PAIR button: When switching to Bluetooth pairing mode, the Soundbar's LED will blink Red → Green → Blue. Once connected, it will blink Cyan three times.
    • SOUND MODE button: When you select a sound mode, the Soundbar's LED will blink White once.
    • (Sound Control) button: When adjusting sound settings, the Multicolour LED on the Soundbar will blink White.
    • VOLUME button: When adjusting the volume, the Soundbar's LED will move White to the right for volume up and White to the left for volume down.

    The remote control itself does not have these LED indicators. The instructions describe the visual feedback you should observe on the Soundbar when using the remote control.

    If you are experiencing issues with the remote control not working, please ensure that the batteries are correctly inserted and have sufficient charge. If you have confirmed the batteries are good and the remote is still not functioning, and you've tried two different remotes with the same result, it might indicate an issue with the Soundbar's remote receiver or a need for further troubleshooting specific to your Soundbar model.
