INCLUDED ITEMS
SOUNDBAR REAR-PANEL CONTROLS AND CONNECTIONS
Subwoofer Output connector: If you are using a powered subwoofer (not
supplied) with your soundbar, connect it here. Note: This connector outputs a
low-pass filtered signal, so connect it to an input on your subwoofer that
bypasses the subwoofer’s built-in crossover network. Consult your subwoofer’s
owner’s manual for instructions about connections and adjustments.
EQ switch: Use this switch to adjust the soundbar’s bass for either wall
or table mounting. If you’re mounting the soundbar on a wall with the included
wall-mount bracket, set the EQ switch to the “Wall” position for the most
natural-sounding bass performance. If you are placing the soundbar on a table,
set the EQ switch to the “Table” position for the most natural-sounding bass
performance.
Optical Input connector (digital): If your TV, disc player or cable/
satellite tuner has an optical digital output, use the included optical cable
to connect it here.
NOTE: You can connect different source components to the analog and
digital connections.
Aux Input connection (analog): Use the included stereo 3.5mm to stereo
RCA audio cable to connect the stereo analog outputs of your TV, disc player
or cable/satellite tuner here.
Power switch: Set this switch to the “On” position to activate the
soundbar. In normal operation, this switch will be left in the “On” position.
See Turning the Soundbar On and Off, on page 5, for more information.
Power Cord connector: Connect the included power cord here. See Power
Connections, on page 5, for more information.
IMPORTANT: Do not connect the power cord to an AC outlet until you have
made and verified all other connections.
If you will not be using the soundbar for an extended period – for instance,
if you’re going on vacation – set the Power switch to the “Off” position.
SOUNDBAR TOP-PANEL CONTROLS AND REMOTE CONTROL

press the Power button on either the soundbar or the remote.
(The Power indicator will turn white.) To put the soundbar in the Standby
mode, press either Power button while the system is on.
(The Power indicator will turn amber.) If you do not press the Power button,
the soundbar will automatically go into the Standby mode approximately 10
minutes after the audio signal ceases.
NOTE: If you put the soundbar into the Standby mode by pressing the Power
button, you must manually turn it on by pressing the Power button again. If
the soundbar automatically goes into the Standby mode 10 minutes after the
audio signal ceases, it will automatically turn on whenever the soundbar
detects an audio signal at either input connection.

soundbar. (The Volume +/– indicators both illuminate white.) While the system
is muted, press the Mute button again or either Volume button to restore the
sound.
NOTE: Pressing both of the soundbar’s Volume buttons at the same time
while the system is on will mute the system. Pressing either Volume button
while the system is muted will restore the sound.
Surround Mode button: This button turns the soundbar’s HARMAN Display
Surround processing on and off. The Surround button indicator turns amber when
HARMAN Display Surround is active, and turns white when HARMAN Display
Surround is not active (normal stereo sound). See Surround Mode Buttons, on
page 6, for more information. Volume Up/Down buttons: Press the “+” button to
increase the volume; press the “–” button to decrease the volume. The buttons
illuminate white for a few seconds after being pressed.
Source Selector button: This button switches between the sources
connected to the Aux (analog) and Optical (digital) inputs. When the Aux input
is active, the Source indicator turns white; when the Optical input is active,
the Source indicator turns amber.
Bass Boost button (remote control only): Press the remote’s Bass Boost button
to enhance low-frequency performance. Pressing the Bass Boost button again
will return the soundbar’s normal lowfrequency performance.
SOUNDBAR PLACEMENT
PLACING THE SOUNDBAR ON A TABLE
If your TV is placed on a table, you can place the soundbar on the table
directly in front of the TV stand, centered with the TV screen. As long as the
surface of the table is flat, the soundbar will rest on its rubber bumpers.
- Set the soundbar’s EQ switch in the “Table” position. See Soundbar Rear-Panel Controls and Connections, on page 2.
WALL-MOUNTING THE SOUNDBAR
If your TV is attached to a wall, you can use the included wall-mount bracket
to mount the soundbar on the wall directly below the TV screen.
-
Determine the location for the soundbar on the wall. Make sure that the top of the soundbar will not block your view of the TV screen when it is mounted on the wall.
-
Hold the bracket against the wall as a template and mark the locations of the soundbar wall-mount bracket holes on the wall. The two holes should be spaced 4-9/16″ (115mm) apart, and the bracket slots are designed to accept 4mm screws. Make sure that the holes are at the same height. See the illustration below.
-
Attach the wall-mount bracket to the wall at the locations you marked, using hardware that is appropriate for the wall’s construction and materials. Note that the soundbar weighs 2.5kg (5.5 lb). Be sure to use hardware that can support this weight.
Before you tighten the mounting screws all the way, use a carpenter’s level, laser sight or other device to check if the bracket is level. The bracket’s slots allow you to adjust the bracket’s angle on the wall to ensure that it is level. Once the bracket is level, tighten the mounting screws. -
After reading the Connections section on page 4, bring all the cables through the opening in the bracket, as shown in the illustration below, and connect them to the soundbar.
IMPORTANT: Do NOT plug the soundbar’s power cord into an AC outlet at this time.• Set the soundbar’s EQ switch in the “Wall” position, and set the soundbar’s Power switch in the “On” position. See Soundbar Rear- Panel Controls and Connections, on page 2. -
Attach the soundbar to the bracket by sliding the bracket’s upper tabs into the slots at the top of the soundbar’s connector section. The bracket’s lower tabs should snap into the slots on the bottom of the soundbar (If necessary, rotate the front of the soundbar down slightly to get the tabs into the slots.)
CONNECTIONS
SOURCE CONNECTIONS
Analog: Use the supplied stereo audio cable to connect the soundbar’s Aux
(analog) input to your TV’s stereo audio output. If your TV has two sets of
audio output jacks, use the set that has a fixed (not variable) output level.
This will let you turn your TV’s speakers all the way off while the TV stil
supplies a constant audio signal to the soundbar.
Digital: If your disc player, cable tuner or satelite tuner has an
optical digital output, you can use the supplied optical digital audio cable
to connect it to the soundbar’s Optical (digital)) input.
NOTE: If your disc player, cable tuner or satellite tuner does not have
an optical digital output, you can connect its analog audio output to your TV.
The TV will send its audio signal to the soundbar through the analog
connection described above.
Subwoofer: If you are using an optional powered subwoofer with your
soundbar, use a mono audio cable (not supplied) to connect it to the
soundbar’s Subwoofer connector. Consult your subwoofer’s owner’s manual for
instructions about connections and adjustments.
POWER CONNECTIONS
After verifying that all of the source connections have been made properly,
plug the supplied power cord into the soundbar’s Power Cord connector, and
plug the other end into an active, unstitched AC outlet. Do NOT plug this cord
into the accessory outlet found on some audio components.
USING YOUR SOUNDBAR SYSTEM
TURNING THE SOUNDBAR ON AND OFF
Set the soundbar’s Power swatch to the “On” position.
Press the Power button on either the soundbar or the remote to turn the soundbar on. To put the soundbar in the Standby mode, press either Power button while the soundbar is on.
If you do not press the Power button, the soundbar will automatically go into
the Standby mode approximately 10 minutes after the audio signal ceases. NOTE:
If you have put the soundbar into the Standby mode by pressing the Power
button, you must manually turn it on by pressing the Power button again. If
the soundbar has automatically gone into the Standby mode 10 minutes after the
audio signal has ceased, it will automatically turn itself on when it receives
an audio signal at either input connection.
If you will be away from home for an extended period of time, or if you will
not be using the soundbar for an extended period, set the soundbar’s Power
switch to the “Off” position.
SWITCHING SOURCES
Press the soundbar’s or remote’s Source button to switch between the devices
you connected to the Aux input and Optical input. When the Aux input is active
the soundbar’s Source indicator will illuminate white; when the Optical input
is active the soundbar’s Source indicator will illuminate amber.
ADJUSTING THE SYSTEM’S VOLUME
Press the soundbar’s or remote’s Volume + and – buttons to raise and lower the
system’s volume one step at a time. Hold down the buttons to continuously
raise or lower the volume.
For the best sound, we recommend turning your TV’s built-in speakers off.
Consult your TV’s owner’s manual to find out how to do this.
MUTING THE SYSTEM
Momentarily press both of the soundbar’s Volume buttons at the same time,
or press the remote’s Mute button to mute the system.
(Both Volume indicators illuminate.) Momentarily press either of the
soundbar’s Volume buttons or press the remote’s Mute button again to un-mute
the system. (The Volume indicators turn off.)
CHANGING THE SURROUND MODE
Press the soundbar’s or remote’s Surround Mode indicator to switch the sound
between normal stereo (the Surround Mode indicator lights white) and HARMAN
Display Surround (the Surround Mode indicator lights amber). The HARMAN
Display Surround setting will produce a complete surround-sound experience for
anyone sitting in front of and several feet away from the soundbar. Although
it is particularly effective when watching movies, you can also try the HARMAN
Display Surround setting for music.
BOOSTING THE BASS
Press the remote’s Bass Boost button to enhance low-frequency performance, resulting in bass with more impact, which you may prefer while watching movies or listening to music. There is no harm in experimenting with this control. Pressing the Bass Boost button again will return the soundbar’s normal low- frequency performance.
LEARNING YOUR TV REMOTE’S VOLUME AND MUTE COMMANDS
You can program the soundbar so it will respond to your TV remote’s volume up,
volume down and mute commands. This will let you control both the soundbar and
your TV with a single remote. Before you begin to program the soundbar, have
your TV remote in hand.
- Press and hold the soundbar’s Surround button until the button begins flashing amber.
- Hold your TV’s remote approximately 12” (30cm) from the front of The soundbar and aim the remote directly at the soundbar: • Press the TV remote’s volume up button while pressing and holding the soundbar’s Volume + button. If the programming was successful the soundbar’s Surround button will change from amber to solid white for one second, then will return to flashing amber.• Press the TV remote’s volume down button while pressing and holding the soundbar’s Volume — button. If the programming was successful the soundbar’s Surround buitton will change from amber to solid white for one second, then will return to flashing amber. • Press the TV remote’s mute button while pressing and holding the soundbar’s Volume + and Volume ~ buttons at the same time. If the programming was successful the soundbar’s Surround button will change from amber to solid white for one second, then will return to flashing amber.
- When you’re finished, press and hold the soundbar’s Surround button until the button stops flashing amber.
The soundbar will now respond to your TV remote’s volume and mute commands.

studio to the liv- ing rooms and automobiles of critical audiophiles, the JBL
brand sets the standard for
accuracy and dynamic musical performance.

and digital technologies and psychoacoustics. The results of this research
drive the development of new designs and materials, extracting even greater
levels of performance.

A Message from the JBL manufacturer and the Consumer Electronics
Association:
Selecting fine audio equipment, such as the unit you have just purchased, is
only the start of your musical enjoyment. Now it is time to consider how you
can maximize the fun and excitement your equipment offers. JBL and the
Consumer Electronics Association want you to get the most out of your
equipment by playing it at a safe level, one that lets the sound come through
loud and clear without annoying blaring or distortion — and, most important,
without affecting your sensitive hearing.
Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing “comfort level” adapts to
higher volumes of sound. What sounds “normal” can actually be loud and harmful
to your hearing. Guard against this by choosing a safe level BEFORE your
hearing adapts.
TO ESTABLISH A SAFE LEVEL:
- Start your volume control at a low setting.
- Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably, clearly, and without distortion.
ONCE YOU HAVE ESTABLISHED A COMFORTABLE SOUND LEVEL:
- Do not exceed that level.
Taking a moment to do this now will help to prevent hearing damage or loss in the future. After all, we want you listening for a lifetime.
