Get to know your Séura® Full Sun Series™ Outdoor Display

If you have questions, call Séura at 1-800-957-3872 to speak to a design expert.

Selecting the Installation Location
Installation over a gas fireplace is acceptable if the distance from the heat source is such that the air temperature surrounding the display does not exceed the maximum operating temperature. A mantle or other heat shield is recommended to further protect the display from heat. Installation over a wood fireplace or near heaters or blowers is not recommended and may result in damage to the electronics. If you have questions about your situation, you may call Seura at 1-800-957-3872 to speak to a design expert.

Not for installation in a sauna or directly above a hot tub where extreme heat and steam could damage the electronics.

Ventilation
Adequate ventilation must be maintained to ensure reliable and continued operation and to protect the display from overheating. There must be at least 1.5 inches of space on all sides. Do not install inside a cabinet, kiosk, or other enclosure.

Cable Management
When running cables from inside the compartment to the sources, allow adequate spacing at the foam entry to the cabinet that allows the foam seal to completely surround each cable. Bunching the cables together can create gaps in the foam that allows moisture and insects to enter the cabinet that may result in damage.

When running HDMI cables longer than 30 feet, check your cable specifications. HDMI cables loose signal over long distances and your media setup may require a signal booster or HDMI balun.

Once connections are made, the media compartment cover must be secured. Failure to close the media compartment exposes the ports and components to the elements and has the potential to permanently damage electronics.

Screen Health
The 4K liquid crystal panel is a high technology product with 8,294,400 pixels, giving you fine picture details. Occasionally, a few non-active pixels may appear on the screen as a fixed point of blue, green or red. Please note that this does not affect the performance of your product. Pixel errors outside of Seura’s specified and permitted area are covered under Soura’s limited product warranty. Please inquire directly with Skura Technical Support regarding Soura’s Pixel Policy.

Vesa/Display Mount Instructions

Carefully lay the display face down on a non-marring surface. Position the soundbar face down, with the grill attached, along the desired edge of the display. This will help ensure that the final mounted position of the soundbar is flush/even with the display.

WARNING: Ensure the Siura Display is properly supported on a flat surface at least as large as the Display. Pressure on the front of the LCD panel will damage the unit.

For Storm Ultra Bright Displays, use the included spacer blocks and longer hardware to accommodate the additional width of the display. For Storm Displays, use the brackets without the spacer blocks for a flush fit.
Attach the bracket to the selected vertical bars using the included short bolts. Attach vertical bars to the soundbar.
Attach the VESA mount to the display via the display VESA pattern and the soundbar mount bars according to the mount instructions.

Wall Mount Instructions

Mount the wall mount bar to the wall using appropriate screws. Make sure the bar is installed level with the display. When installed, the top of the soundbar will sit approximately 3/8″ higher than the top edge of the wall mount bar. The bottom of the soundbar will be approximately 5.75″ below the top edge of the wall mount bar.
Place one wall mount block on either side of the bar, making sure the set screw is centered in the block prior to placing it on the bar. Each block should be placed in the recess just to the outside of the mounting screw for that side of the bar. The soundbar will rest on these blocks when installed and a wider placement gives the soundbar more stability. Placing the blocks too far from the mounting screws may allow the bar to bend.
Place the soundbar on the wall mount, taking care to not disturb the wall mount blocks. It may be necessary to level the soundbar slightly if mounted very close to the display. To adjust, shift the bar slightly to the right or left, using the angled slots to level.

Connecting your Soundbar

Connect any line level audio input to the RCA connectors. The Soundbar uses an auto detection feature to determine which RCA input is active.

Waterproofing Inputs

Included are input caps for the back of the Soundbar. To ensure proper operation in all weather conditions, these caps must be used to cover any exposed connections not in use.

Powering On Your Soundbar

To power on your Séura soundbar, remove the magnetic grill from the front of the soundbar. Press the power switch in the center of the soundbar. The side with the line should be depressed to power on.

When powered on, the indicator light will turn on but will turn off 5 minutes later.

To power off your Séura Soundbar, press the rocker switch so that the side with the circle is depressed. Powering off your Soundbar is recommended if not in use for long periods of time

Powering On Your Soundbar

Caring for your Séura® Full Sun Series™

While Full Sun Series may be safely exposed to weather and moisture, the use of a Séura Outdoor Cover when not in use is recommended.

Transporting the Display

When transporting Full Sun Series, never carry it by holding or putting pressure on the screen. Screen pressure may damage the LCD or weaken the waterproof seal. Be sure to always transport with two people supporting it with both hands.

Caring for the Screen

To clean the screen, gently wipe the surface of the front panel with a clean, soft and lint-free cloth. If needed, dampen the cloth with distilled water or isopropyl alcohol and lightly wipe the screen. Do not use force as pressure on the screen may damage the LCD or weaken the waterproof seal. Do not use solvents or chemical cleaners as they may damage the screen. Do not use a garden hose or pressure washer on the display.

Caring for the Cabinet

Clean regularly with a clean, soft and lint-free cloth. Do not use a chemical cloth (wet/dry sheet type cloth). Use a mild detergent, isopropyl alcohol or multi-use cleaner to remove dust and debris. Stubborn stains such as mineral water deposits may be removed with a calcium or lime remover such as CRL®. However, DO NOT allow CRL® to touch the LCD screen as it will distort the surface. Cleaning with an abrasive cloth or using strong force may scratch the surface of the cabinet. Do not apply insecticides or other volatile liquids.

Use of a Séura Outdoor Cover when not in use is highly recommended to protect your display. Do not allow the cabinet to remain in contact with rubber or vinyl products for a long period of time. Plasticizers inside the plastic may cause the cabinet to deform and cause the paint to peel off.
