“TV’s remote control learning” function (p.12).
This function is available only for the IR (infrared) remote control. Check your
TV’s remote control type.
Can I improve the clarity of dialogue?
Yes. Dialogue in movies, TV news, sports programs, etc., can be made
clearer using the “clear voice” function (p.9).

(front panel)
Cautions
• Do not stack the sound bar and a BD player or other device directly on each other. Doing so may cause a malfunction due to vibrations.
• Do not hold the speaker portion (fabric parts) on the front and the top of the sound bar.
• The sound bar contains non-magnetic shielding speakers. Do not place magnetically sensitive items (hard disk drive, etc.) near the sound bar.
• Depending on your installation environment, it may be better to connect the sound bar and external devices (such as a TV) before installing the sound bar.
• Do not place the sound bar within 50 mm (2") of the TV.
Attaching the sound bar to a wall
1 Slide the installation position selector switch on the bottom panel of the sound bar to the W (for
Wall mount) side.
The sound quality appropriate to the installation will be set.
2 Following “How to install on the wall” below, install the sound bar so that the keys face upwards.
2 Remove the mounting template from the wall, then install commercially available screws (as illustrated below) at the points marked on the wall.
7 to 9 mm
(1/4" to 3/8")
4 mm (#8)
10 to 12 mm (3/8" to 1/2")

4 Hang the sound bar on the screws.
Cautions
• When installing the sound bar on a wall, all installation work must be performed by a qualified contractor or dealer. The customer must never attempt to perform this installation work. Improper or inadequate installation could cause the sound bar to fall, resulting in personal injury.
• To avoid falling the sound bar, attach the sound bar to a dry wall.
• Make sure you use commercially available screws that can support the weight of the installation (specified in Step 2 on the right). Using clamps other than specified screws, such as short screws, nails, and two-sided tape, may cause the sound bar to fall.
How to install on the wall
1 Attach the mounting template on a wall and mark for the screw holes.
Tapes or thumbtacks
Mounting template (supplied)
Screw holes
Mounting holes on bottom of sound bar
Cautions
• Fix the cables in place where they will not become loose. If your foot or hand accidentally gets caught on a loose cable, the sound bar may fall.
• Check that the sound bar is fixed securely after the installation.
Yamaha will bear no responsibility for any accidents caused by improper installations.

Bluetooth
•
Bluetooth is a technology for wireless communication employing the 2.4 GHz frequency band, a band which can be used without a license.
Handling
Bluetooth communications
• The 2.4 GHz band used by
Bluetooth compatible devices is a radio band shared by many types of equipment. While
Bluetooth compatible devices use a technology minimizing the influence of other components using the same radio band, such influence may reduce the speed or distance of communications and in some cases interrupt communications.
• The speed of signal transfer and the distance at which communications is possible differs according to the distance between the communicating devices, the presence of obstacles, radio wave conditions and type of equipment.
• Yamaha does not guarantee all wireless connections between the sound bar and devices compatible with
Bluetooth function.
