USING BLUETOOTH MODE
Your Sound Bar supports music streaming from
smartphones, tablets, and computers with
Bluetooth capability. Device compatibility will
vary, see your device’s documentation for more
information.
Once you have paired your source device to the
Sound Bar, as long as you stay within range of
the Sound Bar, your device should remain paired,
even if you change the input on the Sound Bar.
Maximizing Signal
A Bluetooth signal has a range of up to 30 feet.
Keep in mind that Bluetooth is a compressed
audio format, so streamed music may lose some
integrity when compared to a wired connection.
Try the following if your sound quality is less than
optimal:
• If you hear any break-up or disconnect
while streaming music from your device,
move the source device closer to the
Sound Bar.
• Be sure that there are no solid obstructions
in the line-of-sight between the Sound Bar
and the source device.
• Other wireless devices can affect Bluetooth
range, including wireless security cameras,
wireless video baby monitors, cordless
phones, and microwave ovens. Turning
off or moving these devices may improve
Bluetooth range.
Your Sound Bar is not equipped
with a microphone, so it
cannot operate as a hands-
free device for a smartphone.
