Are there any HDMI IN jacks labeled “ARC” on your TV?



HDMI OUT

TV (ARC)

Use High Speed HDMI Cable with Ethernet (not supplied) to connect an HDMI IN jack on your TV and the HDMI OUT (TV (ARC)) jack on the

Bar Speaker.

Note

•Make sure that the cable is firmly inserted.

•When your TV does not have an HDMI IN jack labeled “ARC,” you also need to connect the TV and the Bar Speaker via the optical digital cable (supplied) as

instructed in step . There will be no sound output from the TV if the TV and the Bar Speaker are connected only via the HDMI cable.

•Do not use a cable which is wide enough to touch the casing of the Bar Speaker. If it is used, the connector area will overload and it may interrupt the

picture or cause malfunction.

•To watch 4K video content, refer to “Connecting a 4K TV and 4K Devices” in the Operating Instructions (separate document).



HDMI IN

1/2

Use an HDMI cable (not supplied) to connect an HDMI OUT jack on a device and either the HDMI IN 1 jack or HDMI IN 2 jack on the Bar

Speaker.

Note

•Make sure that the cable is firmly inserted.

•To watch 4K video content, refer to “Connecting a 4K TV and 4K Devices” in the Operating Instructions (separate document).

Tip

•When devices such as a Blu-ray Disc player, cable box, or satellite box are currently connected to a TV, disconnect the device from the TV and then connect

it to the Bar Speaker to reproduce the high quality surround sound.



TV IN

(OPT)

When there is no HDMI jack labeled “ARC” on your TV, use the optical digital cable (supplied) to connect an optical out jack on your TV

and the TV IN (OPT) jack on the Bar Speaker.

Note

•Check the shape of the optical digital cable’s connecters and the jacks on the TV and the Bar Speaker. Insert the connecters into the jacks in the right

directions. If you forcibly insert the connecters in the wrong directions, the connecters and the jacks may be damaged.
