Full details

Troubleshooting

No sound from the soundbar.

Ensure all cables are securely connected. Check that the correct input source is selected on the soundbar and that the TV volume is not muted and is turned up. Verify that the subwoofer is powered on and connected.

Bluetooth connection issues.

Make sure the soundbar is in Bluetooth pairing mode. Turn off and on Bluetooth on your source device and try reconnecting. Ensure no other devices are actively connected to the soundbar via Bluetooth.

Soundbar not responding to remote control.

Check the battery in the remote. Ensure there is a clear line of sight between the remote and the soundbar's IR receiver. Try unplugging the soundbar from power for 30 seconds and plugging it back in.

Humming or buzzing noise.
