HOW TO CONNECT YOUR BAR HOW TO CONNECT YOUR SUBWOOFER This is really easy too. You likely have many sources for your audio signal: your TV, your DVD player, or a cable/satellite box. The bar is able to accept audio from up to three different sources. The simplest approach is to connect the optical audio output of your TV to the optical input on the back of the bar. This method will provide the highest quality audio regardless of whether you are watching TV or watching your favorite DVD.
BLUETOOTH® WIRELESS TECHNOLOGY To use your Bluetooth wireless technology device with the SurroundBar 5000, you must first pair your device with your SurroundBar. Pairing creates the ability of your Bluetooth device to connect with your SurroundBar wirelessly. Pairing is like a handshake between your Bluetooth device and your SurroundBar 5000 in which they meet and exchange information. You only have to pair your SurroundBar with your Bluetooth device one time for this exchange of information to take place.
HOW TO OPTIMIZE THE SOUND WHEN TV SPEAKERS ARE ON FINE TUNING YOUR SUBWOOFER VOLUME LEVEL You should hear sound from the bar. If you don’t, turn up the volume on the bar using its volume control buttons. If your bar is connected to your TV, there’s a very good chance your TV speakers are also playing. It’s impossible to give specific instructions on how to turn off the speakers for every TV, but here’s a way to do it that covers many of the TVs out there. 1.
HOW TO SET UP A REMOTE CONTROL FOR YOUR SURROUNDBAR IHT 5 SMARTBAR™ PROGRAMMING NOTE: For your SurroundBar to respond to your remote control, you MUST FIRST program the bar to respond to your television’s original IR (Infra-Red) remote.

Tap “Volume Up” button on your TV’s remote control 4 - 8 times, once per second. Tap, do not hold.

FAQ’S (FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS) My TV does not have an optical output. How do I connect my audio? You have several options for connecting your audio: Use the optical output of your source unit (cable/satellite box, DVD player, etc.) and connect directly to the SurroundBar 5000 using the supplied optical cable. Use the 1/8" (3.5mm) analog / headphone output of your TV (if available) and connect directly to the SurroundBar 5000 using the supplied 1/8" (3.5mm) to 1/8" (3.5mm) analog cable.
