As long as the surface of the table is flat, the soundbar will rest on its rubber bumpers. PLaciNg tHe suBWOOFer The performance of a subwoofer is directly related to its placement in the listening room and its physical position relative to the other speakers in the system. While it is true that in general, our ears do not hear directional sounds at the low frequencies where subwoofers operate, when installing a subwoofer within the limited confines of a room, the reflections, standing waves and absorptions generated within the room will strongly influence the performance of any subwoofer system. As a result, the specific location of the subwoofer in the room does become important to the amount and quality of bass that is produced. For example, placing the subwoofer next to a wall generally will increase the amount of bass in the room; placing it in a corner (1) generally will maximize amount of bass in the room. However, corner placement can also increase the destructive effect of standing waves on bass performance. This effect can vary depending on the listening position ­ some listening positions may yield very good results, while others may have far too much (or too little) bass at certain frequencies. In many rooms, placing the subwoofer along the same plane as the soundbar (2) can produce the best integration between the sound of the subwoofer and that of the left and right speakers. To pair the units, press the Wireless Pairing switches on both units within 30 seconds. The units will communicate with each other and operate at the same frequency. Phase 0° 180° Press the Power button on either the soundbar or the remote to turn the soundbar on. To put the soundbar in the Standby mode, press either Power button while the soundbar is on.

NOTE: If you have put the soundbar into the Standby mode by pressing the Power button, you must manually turn it on by pressing the Power button again. If the soundbarMute automatically has gone into the Standby mode 15 minutes after the audio signal has Vol. ­ ceased, it will automatically turn itself on when it receives an audio signal at either the analog (Aux) input or the optical digital input. turNiNg tHe suBWOOFer ON aNd OFF Set the subwoofer's Power switch to the "On" position. The subwoofer will automatically attempt to establish pairing with the soundbar (the subwoofer's LED will flash blue). If pairing is not established within one minute, the subwoofer will enter the Standby mode (its LED will turn amber). If pairing is established, the subwoofer will turn on (its LED will light blue continuously). The subwoofer will remain on for approximately one minute after the soundbar enters the Standby mode, or for approximately 15 minutes after the audio signal ceases. NOTE: The maximum wireless operating distance between the soundbar and subwoofer is approximately 50 feet (15. 3m). [. . . ] When the subwoofer is properly in phase with the soundbar speakers, the sound will be clearer and have more impact. It will make percussive sounds like drums, piano and plucked strings sound more lifelike. The best way Pairing to set the Phase switch is to listen to music that you are familiar with and adjust the switch so that drums and other percussive sounds have maximum impact. www. jbl. com 7 English HARMAN Consumer, Inc. 8500 Balboa Boulevard, Northridge, CA 91329 USA © 2011 HARMAN International Industries, Incorporated.
