This document contains important safety information regarding the Polk MagniFi One Sound Bar System. Please read and follow all instructions carefully.
FCC Compliance
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to two conditions: (1) it must not cause harmful interference, and (2) it must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the responsible party could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. If interference occurs, try to correct it by reorienting or relocating the receiving antenna, increasing separation, connecting to a different circuit, or consulting a dealer or technician.
RF Exposure Warning
This equipment must be installed and operated in accordance with provided instructions. Antennas must be installed to provide a separation distance of at least 20 cm from all persons and must not be co-located or operating with any other antenna or transmitter. End-users and installers must be provided with antenna installation instructions and operating conditions for satisfying RF exposure compliance.
5GHz RF Device Statement: Operation in the 5.15-5.25GHz band is restricted to indoor use only. Outdoor operations in the 5150-5250MHz band are prohibited.
Master Equipment: Transmission is disabled in the 5600-5650MHz band.
Slave Equipment: This device is slave equipment, not radar detection, and does not operate in ad-hoc mode in the DFS band.
Industry Canada (IC) Compliance
This device complies with Industry Canada license-exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is subject to two conditions: (1) it must not cause harmful interference, and (2) it must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation. Changes or modifications not expressly approved could void the user's authority. Batteries shall not be exposed to excessive heat.
RF Exposure Information (IC): The radiated output power is below Industry Canada (IC) limits. The device should be used to minimize human contact. It has been evaluated and shown compliant with IC RF Exposure limits under mobile exposure conditions (antennas > 20cm from body).
Important Safety Instructions
- Read and keep these instructions.
- Heed all warnings and follow all instructions.
- Do not use near water. Clean only with a dry cloth.
- Do not block ventilation openings. Install per manufacturer instructions.
- Do not install near heat sources (radiators, stoves, amplifiers).
- Do not defeat the safety purpose of polarized or grounding plugs. Consult an electrician if the plug does not fit your outlet.
- Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched.
- DO NOT overload wall outlets or extension cords.
- This equipment is Class II or double insulated.
- Dispose of products according to local laws and regulations for electrical and electronic equipment.
- Use only manufacturer-specified accessories.
- Use with recommended carts, stands, tripods, brackets, or tables. Use caution when moving carts/apparatus to avoid tip-over injuries.
- Unplug during lightning storms or long periods of non-use.
- Refer all servicing to qualified personnel. Servicing is required if the apparatus is damaged (cord, plug, liquid spill, dropped, not operating normally, exposed to rain/moisture).
- Do not exceed 35°C ambient temperature.
- To reduce shock risk, do not open the equipment. Only qualified personnel should open it.
- WARNING: To reduce fire/shock risk, do not expose to rain or moisture. Do not place liquid-filled objects on the apparatus.
- The AC inlet is the disconnect device and must remain accessible.
- Use on an open bench.
- No naked flame sources (e.g., candles) should be placed on the apparatus.
- WARNING: To prevent injury, securely attach apparatus to floor/wall per installation instructions.
- WARNING: DO NOT INGEST BATTERY. CHEMICAL BURN HAZARD. The remote contains a coin/button cell battery. Swallowing can cause severe internal burns in 2 hours, leading to death. Keep batteries away from children. If swallowed, seek immediate medical attention.
- CAUTION: Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace only with the same or equivalent type.

Wireless Performance Notes
Like all wireless devices, the MagniFi One Soundbar may be susceptible to RF interference from sources like microwave ovens, WiFi, video game systems, cordless phones, Bluetooth systems, and baby monitors. Devices operating in the 2.4GHz band may cause intermittent wireless connections between the sound bar and subwoofer. Your system may also affect other wireless systems.
To avoid performance issues, physically separate these devices from your sound bar system. Maintaining a distance of several feet should prevent mutual interference. If you experience subwoofer signal dropouts, identify the cause (often proximity to other wireless devices) and resolve it.
Interference from microwave ovens will cease when the oven stops operating. Long-term resolution may involve increasing the physical distance.
Warning: Listen Carefully
Polk Audio loudspeakers and subwoofers can produce extremely high volume levels, which can cause serious or permanent hearing damage. Polk Audio, LLC is not liable for hearing loss, bodily injury, or property damage resulting from misuse of its products. Keep these guidelines in mind and use good judgment when controlling volume:
- Limit prolonged exposure to volumes exceeding 85 decibels (dB). Refer to Occupational Health and Safety Administration (OSHA) guidelines at: www.osha.gov/SLTC/noisehearingconservation/index.html
Troubleshooting
The bar does not power on.
- Ensure the power supply is plugged into a live wall outlet.
- Ensure all power supply components are connected properly.
- Ensure the power supply is properly connected to the bar power input.
No sound from the bar.
- Check if the TV or cable box is providing a signal.
- If necessary, test with an alternate audio source.
- Ensure the bar is powered and turned on.
- Turn up the bar's volume.
- Check input cables for secure connection.
- Turn up the TV or cable box volume.
- Check mute status: If the status light is slowly blinking green, press the Mute button on the bar.
The sound coming from the bar is distorted.
- If possible, lower the volume of your audio source.
- Check for audio processing upstream of the bar (refer to the online manual) and disable it if active.
The included remote control won't work.
- Ensure the battery's protective plastic tab has been removed.
- Replace the battery (CR2032).
The bar won't learn remote control commands.
- Follow programming instructions in the online manual carefully.
- Hold the remote steady, 1-2 feet from the front of the bar.
- Quickly "tap" the button on your existing remote until the status LED blinks green.
- Note: The bar can learn most IR commands, but some protocols cannot be programmed.
TV speaker volume becomes louder than the MagniFi One Soundbar system over time.
- Turn off your TV speakers per the online manual instructions.
- When holding the remote's volume button, the TV volume may change faster than the bar. Use the bar's buttons to adjust the bar's volume for balance with TV speakers.
