Troubleshooting
No sound from the soundbar
Ensure the soundbar is powered on. Check that the correct audio input (USB, Bluetooth, or AUX) is selected and active. Verify volume levels on both the soundbar and your connected device. If using USB, try a different USB port or cable.
Bluetooth connection is unstable or dropping
Ensure the soundbar is within range of your Bluetooth device. Minimize interference from other wireless devices or physical obstructions. Turn off Bluetooth on other nearby devices that are not in use. Try re-pairing the soundbar with your device.
