Troubleshooting

• Soundbar does not turn on: Check if the power cord is correctly inserted.
• Soundbar works erratically: Remove and reinsert the power cord. Power cycle the external device. Turn on power if the soundbar automatically turns off due to no signal.
• Remote control does not work: Point directly at the soundbar. Replace batteries.
• Red LED indicator stays on: The microphone is turned off. Turn it on.
• Soundbar does not output any sound: Adjust volume. Adjust volume on the external device. Select Soundbar as TV sound output. Remove and reconnect cables.
• TV not connected via HDMI (eARC): Check HDMI cable connection. Try connecting directly if an external device causes issues. Activate HDMI-CEC on the TV if necessary.
• Soundbar not connecting via Bluetooth: Switch to Bluetooth pairing mode. Reconnect after removing the Bluetooth speaker list from the device.
• Sound drops out via Bluetooth: Ensure devices are not too close to each other (e.g., microwaves, routers). Move the Bluetooth device closer to the soundbar. Check installation environment for interference.
• Unable to connect to Wi-Fi: Ensure the wireless router is on and reconnect after rebooting. Move the router closer or remove obstacles if the signal is weak.
• Soundbar does not turn on automatically with TV: Turn off the TV first, as power synchronization is disabled when the soundbar is turned off during TV viewing.
