WHERE TO LOCATE YOUR BAR
FOR THE BEST SOUND
It’s easy. The bar comes with rubber pads already attached, so it will sit
securely on any flat surface. Just center the bar under your TV screen. If
your TV is housed in a media center, you can place the bar above the TV.
If your TV is wall-mounted, the bar can mount right beneath it. The bar has
built-in keyhole slots that make it easy.
WHERE TO LOCATE YOUR SUBWOOFER
FOR THE BEST SOUND
Your wireless subwoofer is really easy to place and can go just about anywhere
in the room. Plus you don’t have to worry about connecting wires, because the
only wire
you have to plug in is the power cord. And that’s it.
Here’s a little trick : If you place your subwoofer in a corner of your
room, it will reinforce the subwoofer’s output, making it sound louder.
Overall Dimension Keyhole Slots
- 3 3/4″ H (9.53cm)
- 31″ W (78.74cm)
- 16 3/4″ W (42.55cm)
HOW TO CONNECT YOUR BAR
This is really easy, too. You probably have two sources for a signal: your TV
or a cable/satellite TV box.
We recommend you use the optical output from your TV so you can enjoy the
highest quality audio for TV and DVDs.
In the event that your TV does not have an optical output, you can use the
optical output from your cable/satellite box and then connect your DVD player
using one of the other SurroundBar 4000 inputs.
HOW TO CONNECT YOUR SUBWOOFER
Your subwoofer receives a wireless audio signal from the bar, so all you need
to do is plug in the power cord. Make sure the sub’s Channel ID switch is set
to the same number as the bar’s Channel ID switch. (Both Channel ID switches
should be set to the same number out of the box.)
HOW TO OPTIMIZE THE SOUND
WHEN TV SPEAKERS ARE ON
You should hear sound from the bar. If you don’t, turn up the volume on the
bar using its volume control buttons.
If your bar is connected to your TV, there’s a very good chance your TV
speakers are also playing. It’s impossible to give specific instructions on
how to turn off the speakers for every TV, but here’s a way to do it that
covers many of the TVs out there.
- On your TV remote control, find a “menu” or “setup” button.
- Press this button. You should see an on-screen menu.
- Next, look for an option to control audio functions and select it.
The setting to turn off your TV’s internal speakers should be here.
If you can’t turn off your TV internal speakers, don’t worry.
Your SurroundBar 4000 IHT will make your TV sound much better.To enjoy the
best performance from your bar, you’ll want it to play louder than your TV.
Use the following steps to adjust the volume balance between your TV and the
bar:
-
If necessary, program your bar to respond to the volume up and down control commands of your TV remote.
(See “HOW TO SETUP A REMOTE CONTROL FOR YOUR SURROUNDBAR 4000 IHT” on this page.) -
Turn your TV volume all the way down using the control buttons on your TV.
-
Then, using the volume control buttons on your bar, set the volume to a normal listening level (do not use the remote control).
After you make these adjustments, your SurroundBar 4000 IHT should always be
louder than your TV speakers. Then use the TV remote control to adjust the
volume as you normally do.
FINE TUNING YOUR SURROUNDBAR 4000 IHT
The next thing you’ll want to do is adjust the subwoofer to blend with your
bar. This will ensure the system produces the best sound.
To set the subwoofer’s volume, play a variety of source material— some music,
a movie soundtrack with great special effects, a movie chapter or a part of a
concert in which people are speaking. Adjust the volume until what you hear
sounds natural to you in your normal viewing location.
HOW TO SET UP A REMOTE CONTROL FOR YOUR SURROUNDBAR 4000 IHT
Important Note: If adjusting your TV’s volume also adjusts the volume of your
bar, then following the instructions below is not necessary. Your remote will
control the SurroundBar 4000 IHT without programming.
Programming Instructions: Your SurroundBar 4000 IHT is currently programmed to
respond to the remote control that is included with the product. However, we
strongly
recommend that you program the SurroundBar 4000 IHT to also respond to your
existing remote control using the steps illustrated below thereby enabling you
to operate
everything using a single remote.
Example: To have your bar learn the “Volume Up” command of your remote
control:
- Press and hold “LEARN” on the bar until the LED blinks orange.
- Press “Volume Up” ( ∧). LED stops blinking and remains steady orange.
- While holding your TV’s remote within 1-2 feet of the bar, quickly tap the “Volume Up” (∧ ) button approximately
- times. With each tap, the status LED should blink quickly (like a strobe). After the 4th button press, the status indicator LED should blink green for about 3 seconds.
Repeat steps 1-3 to program the “Volume Down” ( ∨), Mute, and Power buttons ( ****).
Code Erasing Procedure: If you have programmed your SurroundBar 4000 to
respond to the remote control and you no longer want it to do so, then you can
erase the codes by pressing the LEARN key for about two seconds while the unit
is in standby mode (power LED is red). You’ll know that previously learned
codes have been successfully erased when the power LED blinks orange and red
in succession. The SurroundBar 4000 will continue to respond to the provided
credit card remote control.
NOTE : This procedure removes ALL of your bar’s remote control
programming. If you only need to change the programming for some of the bar
buttons, follow the three steps in the sequence previously described to redo
any previous programming.
TROUBLESHOOTING
The bar does not power on.
- Ensure you have plugged the power supply into a live wall outlet.
- Ensure that all components of the power supply are connected properly.
- Ensure the power supply is properly connected to the bar power input.
- Ensure the rear panel power switch is in the “on” position.
- The subwoofer does not power on.
- Ensure the subwoofer is plugged into a live wall outlet.
- Ensure the rear panel power switch is in the “on” position.
No sound from the bar.
- Check that the TV or cable box is providing a signal.
- Check that the bar is receiving power and is turned on.
- Turn up the volume of the bar.
- Check the input cables to make sure they are connected securely.
- Turn up the volume of your television or cable box.
- Check the mute status: Is the bar status light slowly blinking green? If so, press the Mute button on the bar.
- Check that the audio format of the input source is set to PCM 2-channel audio.
No sound from the subwoofer.
- See section “Subwoofer does not power on.”
- Turn up the subwoofer volume control using the remote control.
- Is the bar status light blinking orange fast?
- If so, the bar and subwoofer have failed to establish a wireless connection. Turn off both the bar and subwoofer.
- Then turn them back on to re-establish communication.
- Ensure the channel ID switches on the bar and subwoofer are set to the same number.
The sound coming from the bar is distorted.
- Check the signal source to ensure the distortion is not coming from there.
- Audio processing (see FAQs on page 10)—there may be audio processing occurring prior to reaching the bar. Disable this processing.
The Bass output is not loud enough.
- Turn up the subwoofer’s volume control using the remote control.
- Place the subwoofer closer to a corner of the room.
- Move the subwoofer closer to the viewing location within the room.
The bar won’t learn my remote control commands.
- Carefully follow the programming instructions on the previous page of this manual.
- Hold the remote steady and 1-2 feet from the front of the bar.
- Quickly “tap” the remote button 4 times.
Note : The bar learns almost all IR commands, but some IR protocols cannot be programmed.
The volume of my television speakers gets louder than my SurroundBar 4000 system over time.
- Turn off your TV speakers per the instructions on page 8 of this manual.
- When the remote control volume button is held down, your television may change volume levels faster than the bar. Use the buttons on the bar to adjust the volume of the bar to the correct balance with the TV speakers.
The subwoofer’s output is intermittent, sounds weak, or distorted.
-
Is the bar status indicator blinking orange?
If so, the bar and subwoofer have failed to establish a wireless connection.
Turn off both the bar and subwoofer. Then turn them back to re-establish communication. -
Try changing the settings of the channel ID switches on both the bar and the subwoofer.
-
The wireless subwoofer could be too far away from the bar to receive a sufficiently strong signal.
Try moving the subwoofer closer.
FAQS (FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS)
My TV does not have an optical output.
How do I connect my audio?****
– You have several options for connecting your audio:
Use the optical output of your source unit (cable/satellite box, DVD player,
etc.) and connect directly to the SurroundBar 4000 using the supplied optical
cable.
Use the 1/8″ (3.5mm) analog/headphone output of your TV (if available) and
connect directly to the SurroundBar 4000 using the supplied 1/8″ (3.5mm) to
1/8″ (3.5mm) analog cable.
Use the RCA audio outputs (white/red pair) on your TV (if available) and
connect directly to the SurroundBar 4000 using the supplied 1/8″ (3.5mm) to
1/8″ (3.5mm) analog cable and 1/8″ (3.5mm) to RCA adapter.
What if my provided optical cable is too short?****
– We did our best to provide a cable of adequate length; however, there might be a few setup instances in which the cable may be too short. If that is your situation, your local electronics store will have cables that meet your required length.
Why am I not hearing any sound from my SurroundBar 4000 when using the
provided (optical) cable?****
The SurroundBar 4000 is expecting the audio to be in Dolby ® Digital or
2-channel format. You may need to change your TV or cable/satellite box audio
settings accordingly.
– My audio sounds strange and distorted.
Your SurroundBar 4000 requires a clean, unaltered stereo signal for proper
audio performance. If the sound from your SurroundBar 4000 is strange or
distorted, then check the audio menus of whatever source(s) are connected to
your SurroundBar 4000 and make sure any audio processing is turned off.
Why can’t I successfully program the SurroundBar 4000 to respond to my remote control?****
– There are many remote control formats, and we have done our best to make the
SurroundBar 4000 compatible with the most popular brands. However, there are
likely some cases in which the bar will not be able to learn your remote
codes.
In this case, please use the remote control provided with the SurroundBar 4000
product or try a different universal remote control.
How do I control the SurroundBar 4000?****
– There are three ways to control your SurroundBar 4000: Use the touch-
sensitive buttons on the front of the bar. Use the provided remote control.
– Program the SurroundBar 4000 to respond to your existing remote (see
included instructions).
My SurroundBar 4000 was responding to commands, but now it isn’t. What should I do?****
– In this rare event, simply turn off the power (switch located on the back of the bar), wait a few seconds, and then turn the power back on. This should restore control.
How do I erase previously learned remote control commands?****
– If you have programmed your SurroundBar 4000 to respond to remote control and you no longer want it to do so, then you can erase the codes by pressing the LEARN key for about two seconds while the unit is in standby mode (the power LED is red). The SurroundBar 4000 will continue to respond to the provided credit card remote control.
Can I adjust the subwoofer level control from the bar keypad if I cannot locate the provided remote control?****
– Yes. You can control the subwoofer volume from the bar keypad by tapping the
LEARN button prior to using the volume buttons. When you are done with the
adjustment
tap the LEARN button again.

A Note Regarding Wireless Performance:
Like all wireless devices, your SurroundBar 4000 IHT may be susceptible to RF
interference from such sources as microwave ovens, WiFi computer systems,
video game systems, cordless telephones, blue tooth systems, baby monitors,
and other devices. In particular, any devices operating in the 2.4GHz band may
cause intermittent wireless connections between the SurroundBar 4000 speaker
and the subwoofer. It is also possible that your SurroundBar 4000 IHT System
may affect other wireless systems. For the most part, you can avoid wireless
performance problems by physically separating these devices from your
SurroundBar 4000 IHT System. Maintaining a distance of several feet
or more between your SurroundBar 4000 IHT speaker and any wireless device
should prevent any mutual interference effects. If you do notice any subwoofer
signal dropouts take care to identify the root cause (most commonly having
other wireless devices too close) and resolve it accordingly. Any interference
effects from a microwave oven will cease once the oven stops operating and may
be resolved on a long-term basis by increasing the physical distance between
your SurroundBar 4000 IHT System and the microwave oven.
