• The soundbar and subwoofer should be situated away from heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other devices that produce heat.
• These speakers should be connected to a power supply outlet of the same voltage as that which is speciÿed on the unit. Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched, particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where it exits from the unit.

OPERATION

PAIRING THE SUBWOOFER

1.  Power on the subwoofer by connecting it to an AC power source. The blue LED pairing indicator on the back of the unit will begin to °ash slowly. Use a small pin to press the WPS auto pair button. The subwoofer will enter pairing mode and the blue LED indicator will begin to °ash quickly.
2. Power on the ROCKBAR by connecting it to an AC power source. Press the Power/Standby button to put the soundbar into pairing mode.
3. Within 30 seconds, the blue LED pairing indicator on the back of the subwoofer will stop °ashing and remain on. This indicates that the subwoofer has successfully paired with the ROCKBAR.
4. The subwoofer will remember the ROCKBAR and automatically pair with it the next time it is powered on.
5. The subwoofer can be paired with other soundbars in the same series, but only one at a time. To pair to another soundbar, simply repeat steps 1 – 3.

Please note: If the subwoofer is turned on, but the ROCKBAR is in standby mode or is disconnected from power after 5 minutes the blue LED pairing indicator will become solid red. This indicates that the subwoofer has entered standby mode.

To avoid sound quality issues caused by wireless signal interference, please keep the system an appropriate distance away from other 2.4 GHz wireless devices. The maximum connection range is 33 feet (10 meters).

BLUETOOTH PAIRING

1. Power on the ROCKBAR by connecting it to an AC power source. Press the Power/Standby button on the side of the ROCKBAR or on the remote control. The LCD display will read “bt” and the letters will °ash steadily.
2. Turn on the Bluetooth feature on your device and ensure that it is in “discoverable” mode. Search for “Rockville” on your list of available devices and select it.
3. Once paired, the letters “bt” on the LCD display will stop °ashing and remain on.
4. All playback functions (play/pause, volume, tracks) can be controlled from your playback source (ex. phone/mp3 player) without ever having to touch the unit. You can also control playback from the ROCKBAR (volume) or the remote control (volume, tracks, play/pause).

Please note: if you are using an iPhone, iPad, or iPod the volume controls are synced so that if you raise the volume on your device, it will raise the volume on the unit and vice versa. If using an Android device, you will need to adjust the device’s volume and the ROCKBAR’s volume independently.

OPTICAL

Many TVs, Digital set-top boxes, game consoles, and DVD players have optical (ÿber optic) outputs. To connect via Optical input, follow the steps listed below.

1. Power on the ROCKBAR by connecting it to an AC power source. Press the Power/Standby button on the side of the ROCKBAR and continue to press it until the LCD display shows the letters “OP”. You can also press the INPUT button on the remote control to reach Optical mode.
2. Use a digital optical audio cable to connect the ROCKBAR to the sound source. You will need to adjust the device’s volume and the ROCKBAR’s volume independently.
3. Set your TV’s sound output to external speakers.

Please note: If you are having issues with sound output, go into your TV’s audio settings and make sure to deactivate Dolby Pro-Logic, Dolby ATMOS, etc. and select PCM format.

USB

1. Power on the ROCKBAR by connecting it to an AC power source and pressing the Power/Standby button.
2. Plug in your USB °ash drive. The unit will automatically read the ÿles and begin playing music.

To return to USB mode plug in a USB °ash drive or press the Power/Stand-by button until the LCD display shows the letters “US”. You can also press the INPUT button on the remote control to exit from or return to USB mode.

Please note: the ROCKBAR supports USB drives up to 32Gb and the MP3 ÿle format. The USB port does not support charging.

HDMI (ARC)

The ROCKBAR can be connected to your TV or receiver via an ARC-enabled HDMI port. ARC stands for “Audio Return Channel” and has been available on most TVs, receivers, and soundbars since the HDMI 1.4 standard was introduced in 2009. The ARC protocol offers two-way communication between devices over a single HDMI connection. Simply put, this means that you can use the HDMI ARC port (if available) as an input and an audio output. Check your speciÿc device’s manual to see if it features an HDMI ARC port.

1. Power on the ROCKBAR by connecting it to an AC power source. Press the Power/Standby button on the side of the ROCKBAR and continue to press it until the LCD display shows the letters “Hd”. You can also press the INPUT button on the remote control to reach HDMI mode.

2. Connect a standard HDMI cable to your sound bar and connect the other end to your TV’s HDMI ARC port. Most TVs feature ARC output over only one HDMI port. This port should be labeled as HDMI ARC. If the HDMI ports aren’t clearly labeled, you can check the TV manual, which should indicate which HDMI port to use and if the ARC feature needs to be manually activated.
   Please note: the ROCKBAR must be plugged into an ARC-enabled HDMI port. It will not work with a standard HDMI port. Check your speciÿc device’s manual to see if it features an HDMI ARC port.

3. Set your TV’s sound output to external speakers.

Please note: If you are having issues with sound output, go into your TV’s audio settings and make sure to deactivate Dolby Pro-Logic, Dolby ATMOS, etc., and select PCM format.

AUX

Use the 3.5mm AUX jack to connect computers or any other external sound source with a 3.5mm output.

1. Power on the ROCKBAR by connecting it to an AC power source. Press the Power/Standby button on the side of the ROCKBAR and continue to press it until the LCD display shows the letters “AUX”. You can also press the INPUT button on the remote control to reach HDMI mode.

2. Use a 3.5mm to 3.5mm cable to connect the ROCKBAR to the sound source.

3. Playback functions (play/pause, volume, tracks) are not available in AUX mode.
   Please note: you will need to adjust the device’s volume and the ROCKBAR’s volume independently.

4. Set your TV’s sound output to external speakers.
   Please note: If you are having issues with sound output, go into your TV’s audio settings and make sure to deactivate Dolby Pro-Logic, Dolby ATMOS, etc., and select PCM format.

MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS

Measure the distance between the center holes on the wall brackets (FIG A).

Once you’ve selected your mounting location, drill two holes at the same distance as the holes on the wall brackets.

We recommend using wall anchors (FIG B) or drilling into a stud. If you are using anchors, make sure the holes are deep enough to accommodate them. When installing the screws, be sure to leave a 3.5 – 4mm gap between the wall and the screw’s head (FIG C). Once the mounting screws are in place, (1) align the soundbar with the mounting screws and slide it onto the mounting screws. (2) Tug the soundbar down slightly to ensure that it is seated properly (FIG D).
