manufacturer, turn the Soundbar on, press and hold the Surround button for 5 seconds
(“OFF-TV REMOTE” appears on the Soundbar’s display), release the Surround button, and then
press and hold the Surround button again for more than 5 seconds. (“ALL-TV REMOTE” appears on

09 Installing the Wall Mount
Installation Precautions
•• Install on a vertical wall only.
•• Do not install in a place with high temperature or humidity.
•• Verify whether the wall is strong enough to support the product’s weight. If not, reinforce the wall
or choose another installation point.
•• Purchase and use the fixing screws or anchors appropriate for the kind of wall you have (plaster
board, iron board, wood, etc.). If possible, fix the support screws into wall studs.
•• Purchase wall mounting screws according to the type and thickness of the wall you want to mount
the Soundbar on.
–– Diameter: M5
–– Length: 35 mm or longer recommended.
•• Connect cables from the unit to external devices before you install the Soundbar on the wall.
