SB 30 Using Your Soundbar Speaker System Wireless Code Switches In the unlikely event that you encounter interference when operating the system, or if you have more than one SB 30 system in operation, you may change the channel at which the wireless system operates. There are four-position Wireless Code switches on both the soundbar and subwoofer. To change the wireless channel, set each of the switches to one of the other three positions. IMPORTANT: The switches on the soundbar and the subwoofer must be set to the same position for the wireless system to work. Input Input L 1 2 3 4 SB 30 CNTR Soundbar Turning the Soundbar On and Off Manually: To turn the soundbar on manually, momentarily press the Power button on the soundbar or on the remote control. Pressing the Power button while the soundbar is on will put it into the Standby mode. Power Button Power Button Input Input L 1 2 3 4 Wireless Code Switch Wireless Code Switch Set Both Switches to the Same Number This area is designed to become quite warm during normal operation L NOTE: If you put the soundbar into the Standby mode manually, you can turn it back on only by manually pressing the Power button again. Auto turn-on: The soundbar has a signal detector that will automatically turn the unit on when it senses an audio signal at any of its inputs. To minimize power consumption, the signal detector is not activated unless the soundbar first senses any kind of IR remote signal. Once the soundbar's signal detector has been activated, the unit will automatically turn from Standby to on as soon as it detects an input signal at any of its source input connections. Auto turn-off: The soundbar will automatically enter the Standby mode if no audio signal is detected at any of its source input connections for approximately 15 minutes. Turning the Subwoofer On and Off The subwoofer will automatically turn on when it receives an audio signal from the soundbar, and it will return to the Standby mode when it has received no audio signal for 15 minutes. The subwoofer's Power LED will turn blue when the subwoofer is on and will turn amber when the subwoofer is in Standby. Subwoofer Volume Control Use the subwoofer's Volume control to balance its volume with that of the soundbar. Once you find the proper balance between the subwoofer and the soundbar, the soundbar's Volume Up/Down buttons will control the volume of the entire system, and you should not have to readjust the subwoofer's Volume control. SB 30 Subwoofer This area is designed to become quite warm during normal operation RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK DO NOT OPEN Volume Control Notes on setting subwoofer volume • Sometimes the ideal subwoofer volume setting for music is too loud for films, while the ideal setting for films is too quiet for music. When setting the subwoofer's Volume control, listen to both music and films with strong bass content and find a "middle ground" volume level that works for both. • If your subwoofer always seems too loud or too quiet, you may want to place it in a different location. Placing the subwoofer in a corner will always tend to increase its bass output, while placing it away from any walls or corners will always tend to lessen its bass output. 10
