Troubleshooting

If you experience issues with your LG SN5R.DEUSLLK soundbar, refer to the following common problems and solutions:

Problem	Possible Cause / Solution
No power	Ensure all power cords are securely connected to the soundbar, subwoofer, and wall outlets. Check if the power outlet is functioning correctly.
No sound from soundbar	Verify the correct input source is selected (HDMI, Bluetooth, USB, Optical). Increase the volume on both the soundbar and your TV/source device. Check HDMI cable connections. Ensure TV audio output is set to external speakers or ARC.
No sound from wireless subwoofer	Ensure the subwoofer is powered on and its indicator light is green, indicating a successful wireless connection. If the light is not green, try re-pairing the subwoofer (refer to the full user manual for specific pairing steps). Ensure the subwoofer is within range of the soundbar.
No sound from rear speakers (receiver light is green)	Verify that the speaker wires are correctly and securely connected to the wireless receiver and the rear speakers. Ensure the wireless receiver for the rear speakers is powered on and its indicator light is green. Check the soundbar's settings to ensure rear speakers are enabled and their volume is not muted or set too low. If the issue persists, try power cycling both the soundbar and the rear speaker receiver.
Bluetooth pairing issues	Ensure the soundbar is in Bluetooth pairing mode ("BT" displayed). Make sure your mobile device's Bluetooth is enabled and it's within range. Try forgetting the device on your mobile phone and re-pairing. Clear any previous Bluetooth connections on the soundbar if available.
