NOTE

• If the main unit is powered off, the wireless subwoofer will go into stand-by mode and the STANDBY LED on the rear of the sub-woofer will

turn red after blinking in blue several times.

• If you use a device that uses the same frequency as the Soundbar near the Soundbar, interference may cause some sound interruption.

• The maximum transmission distance of the main unit’s wireless signal is about 32.8 ft (10 m), but may vary depending on your operating

environment. If a steel-concrete or metallic wall is between the main unit and the wireless subwoofer, the system may not operate at all

because the wireless signal cannot penetrate metal.

CAUTION

• Wireless receiving antennas are built into the wireless subwoofer. Keep the unit away from water and moisture.

• For optimal listening performance, make sure that the area around the wireless subwoofer and the Wireless Receiver Module (sold separately)

is clear of any obstructions.

Auto EQ

Samsung’s Auto EQ Technology uses a microphone mounted in the subwoofer to detect and correct low-frequency response peaks caused by the

room dimensions and the subwoofer location. The result will be a more neutral overall low-frequency response.

• Subwoofer should be placed with a minimum of 3” (8 cm) clearance from each side to the nearest boundary.

• You must keep the room as quiet as possible while operating the Auto EQ tuning.

• Do not use any buttons until the Auto EQ tuning is complete.

• Auto EQ tuning takes about 2 minutes.

• During Auto EQ tuning, there is no sound from the Soundbar’s main unit and rear speakers.

If you are using the function for the rst time

1. Press the (Sound Control) button until Auto EQ is selected.

2. Press the Up/Down buttons to select Tuning, and then press the button.

3. Tuning will start, and the progress appears in percentage.

‒ To cancel tuning, press the Up, Down, Left, Right or button, and then press the button to conrm.

‒ If the tuning is failed, LED blinks in red.

‒ If the tuning is successful, LED blinks in blue.

If you have done the tuning process

1. Press the (Sound Control) button until Auto EQ is selected.

2. Press the Up/Down buttons to select Tuning, and then press the button.

3. Press the Up/Down buttons to select one of the following options.

‒ On: Turn on the previously tuned EQ settings.

‒ Off: Turn on the default EQ settings.

• When the TV sound is not output, press the (Multi Function) button at the top of the Soundbar or the (Source) button on the remote

control to select the “D.IN” mode. The screen displays “D.IN” and “TV ARC” in sequence, and TV sound is played.

• When connecting a TV that supports the eARC function, “eARC” appears on the display and the sound is heard.

• To connect with eARC, the eARC function in the TV menu should be set to On. Refer to the TV user manual for details on setting. (e.g.

Samsung TV : Home ( ) → Settings ( ) → Sound → Expert Settings → HDMI-eARC Mode (Auto))

• If “TV ARC” does not appear in the display window of the Soundbar main unit, conrm that the HDMI cable is connected to the correct port.

• Use the volume buttons on the TV’s remote control to change the volume on the Soundbar.

NOTE

• When you connect the TV that supports the HDMI ARC (Audio Return Channel) to the Soundbar with an HDMI cable, you can transmit the

digital video and audio data without connecting a separate optical cable.

• We recommend you use a coreless HDMI cable if possible. If you use a cored HDMI cable, use one whose diameter is less than 0.55 inches (14

mm).

• This function is not available if the HDMI cable does not support ARC.

• When the audio in a broadcast is encoded in Dolby Digital and the “Digital Output Audio Format” on your TV is set to PCM, we recommend that

you change the setting to Dolby Digital. When the setting on the TV is changed, you will experience better sound quality. (The TV menu may

use different words for Dolby Digital and PCM depending on the TV manufacturer.)
