Notes:

●This sound bar supports HDMI which enables ARC (Audio Return Channel).

●To enable ARC make sure to use High Speed HDMI™ cable (with ARC).

●This ARC feature requires TV that supports ARC. Refer the operation manual of the TV to determine which terminal supports ARC.

●To listen to the sound from a non-ARC-compatible TV, connect the audio output from TV to this system’s. (refer page 9)

●This sound bar can be operated (power on/off or volume up/down) via a TV or similar component which supports HDMI CEC (Consumer Electronics Control). If this does not work, it does not mean this system is faulty. Refer to the operation manual of the respective component on how to activate the CEC.

Example: Go to the Menu of the component to search and enable the CEC. Different brands may have different naming for the CEC. For SHARP LCD TV, it is named as AQUOS LINK.

●CEC is not available during Low power consumption mode.

● To listen to the sound from this system, you will need to press and hold the (MUTE) button (refer page 12) or adjust the speaker output settings within the TV menu.

For details, refer to the operation manual of the TV.

●If you are unable to select external speaker setting from the TV menu (E.g. For SHARP LCD TV, it is named as AQUOS AUDIO SP), turn the CEC OFF and ON again.

●To enjoy 3D images, this system must be connected to a 3D-compatible TV and components (3D BD player, etc.) via High Speed HDMI cables. Put on the 3D glasses, otherwise 3D images may not be viewed properly.
