USING THE RCA INPUT
Use the RCA Stereo Audio Cable to connect the TV’s stereo RCA(L/R) audio output socket to the RCA(L/R) Sockets of the unit (Ref.10). Then press the INPUT button on the remote control (Ref.24) or press the INPUT button on the soundbar (Ref.5) to choose the AUX function.
Troubleshooting:
If you are not receiving a picture or encountering interference, please ensure that the RCA cable is being connected to the ‘output’ RCA ports on your TV set. This will ensure that the sound is being exported correctly. If your TV does not have ‘output’ RCA ports, please use an alternative connection method.
USING THE ARC (HDMI) INPUT
Connect the HDMI cable (included) to the HDMI ARC connector on the back of the unit to the HDMI (ARC) connector on the TV. NOTE: In the HDMI ARC mode, if your speakers have no audio output and the indicator light is flashing quickly, use your source device (such as a TV, CD player, or cable/satellite receiver).
The audio output mode is set to PCM, or turn off the sound source output. The transmission of digital audio signals between devices is not workable for all the TV brands in the markets because the branded TVs are not cross-brand compatible with each other.
USING THE OPTICAL INPUT
You will need An audio source with an Optical Audio Output and a Digital Optical Audio cable (included). Connect the Digital Optical Audio cable to the optical output on the audio source and the Optical Input on the soundbar (Ref.12). Press the POWER button on the side panel (Ref.4) or on the remote control (Ref.14) to switch on the unit. Press the INPUT button on the remote control repeatedly (Ref.24) to switch to Optical mode or press the INPUT button (Ref.5) repeatedly on the soundbar to select Optical mode.
The mode indicator LED will turn yellow. Using the native controls on your connected device, make sure the audio settings are set to PCM or Optical Audio and are switched on. Audio from the connected audio source will now be played through the speakers.
USING THE MP3 LINK CONNECTION (AUX IN)
Plug one end of a 3.5mm audio input cable (included) into the Line in (Ref.7) on the unit. Before use, disconnect any cables connected to the Stereo RCA Inputs. Plug the other end of the cable into the audio output/ headphone output on an MP3 player or other audio source. Press the POWER button on the side panel (Ref.4) or on the remote control (Ref.11) to switch on the unit.
Press the INPUT button repeatedly on the soundbar (Ref.5) or press INPUT on the remote control (Ref.24) repeatedly until LINE in mode is selected. The mode indicator will turn green. Audio played through the connected device will now be heard through the speakers.
CONNECTING TO THE MAINS SUPPLY
Ensure that the power supply voltage is within the range of 100V~240V. Any other voltage may cause damage to the unit. Unwind the mains cable to its full length. Connect the mains plug to a mains socket. Ensure that the mains plug is fully inserted into the mains socket. The mains plug/appliance coupler is used as the disconnect device. The disconnect device must remain readily operable. Connect the adapter to the soundbar AC Socket (Ref.13).
Ensure all audio connections of the unit are connected before connecting to the mains power socket. Unplug the power cord from the outlet when the unit is used for an extended period.
