SONOS Beam Wall Mount Soundbar
Connect the optical adapter to the TV’s optical digital OUT port.
Note: The optical adapter’s port is “D-shaped”—make sure the connector aligns correctly into the port. Inserting the adapter incorrectly may damage the cable. If you don’t have the app, download it from the app store. You’ll use it to set up and control your Sonos system. See Getting started.
The microphone on/off
Touch to turn the microphone on and off. (If you don’t have a voice service installed, the microphone is inactive.) When the microphone light is on, voice control is on and your voice assistant is ready to respond. When the microphone light is off, voice control is off. Note: If you’ve installed a voice service and the microphone is off, you can still use voice commands. Just press and hold —no need to start with a wake word. When you release the microphone button, voice control turns off again.

Guidelines
- Use the Beam wall mount kit. You can buy it on www.sonos.com. Follow the instructions in the kit.
- Keep 1″ (25mm) space (minimum) above Beam so you can reach the touch controls.
- If you’re mounting above the TV, make sure you can reach the touch controls.
- For best sound quality, keep both ends of Beam at least 1′ (30cm) from a wall or other obstruction.
