Setup
1. Initial Placement
Place the sound bar centrally below your TV. The wireless subwoofer can be placed anywhere in the room, ideally near a wall for enhanced bass. If using detached satellite speakers, place them behind your listening position for optimal surround sound.

2. Connecting the Subwoofer
The subwoofer connects wirelessly to the sound bar. Simply plug the subwoofer into a power outlet. It will automatically pair with the sound bar when both units are powered on.
3. Connecting Satellite Speakers
The satellite speakers can be used in two ways:
- Attached to Sound Bar: Align the connectors on the satellite speakers with the ends of the sound bar and gently push until they click into place.
- Detached (Wireless): To detach, gently pull the speakers away from the sound bar. Ensure they are charged. They will automatically connect wirelessly to the sound bar. Recharge them via the sound bar connection or using a micro USB cable.

4. Audio Connections

- HDMI ARC (Recommended for TV): Connect an HDMI cable from the HDMI ARC port on the sound bar to the HDMI ARC port on your TV. This allows for high-quality audio and control via your TV remote.
- Optical: Connect an optical cable from the OPTICAL-IN port on the sound bar to the optical output on your TV or other device.
- AUX (RCA): Use the supplied RCA cable to connect to the AUX-IN (L/R) ports on the sound bar from your audio source's RCA output.
- Line-In (3.5mm): Connect a 3.5mm audio cable (not supplied) from the LINE-IN port on the sound bar to the headphone jack or line-out of your device.
- USB: Insert a USB drive into the USB port to play compatible audio files.
- Bluetooth: For wireless connection from mobile devices, see the "Bluetooth Pairing" section under Operating Instructions.
