Place the soundbar on a table underneath the TV. For
best experience place the soundbar as close as pos-
sible to the screen.

5 Connecting the
soundbar
Before you make or change any connections, make
sure that all devices are disconnected from the power
outlet.
5.1 Connecting with HDMI
Option 1 - eARC/ARC
(enhanced / Audio Return Channel)
Your klang bar supports HDMI with enhanced Audio
Return Channel (eARC/ARC). If your TV is HDMI ARC
compliant, you can control your klang bar via HDMI
CEC and transmit TV sound to your klang bar by using
a single HDMI cable.
HDMI OUT
TV eARC
HDMI eARC/ARC
1. On your TV, turn on HDMI-CEC operations.
2. Using a High Speed HDMI cable (included), con-
nect the HDMI OUT (TV eARC/ARC) connector
on your Soundbar to the HDMI ARC connector on
the TV. The HDMI ARC connector on the TV might
be labeled differently. For details, see the TV user
manual.
3. "eARC/ARC" appears on the display of the sound-
bar and the soundbar plays the TV sound. When
the TV sound is not output, press the
button repeatedly until you see eARC or ARC on the
display and TV sound is played.
When HDMI ARC connection is properly set up, you
can enjoy these features:
• The soundbar turns on automatically when you
turn on the TV.
• The soundbar turns off automatically when you
turn off the TV.
• You can mute/unmute or adjust the volume of the
soundbar using the TV remote control.
Note
• Your TV must support the HDMI-CEC and ARC
function. HDMI-CEC and ARC must be set to On.
• The setting method of HDMI-CEC and ARC may
differ depending on the TV. For details about ARC
function, please refer to your TV operating instruc-
tions.
• Only cables compatible with HDMI version 1.4 or
higher can support the ARC function. We recom-
mend using the included HDMI cable.
• For the eARC function, use the HDMI cable that
came with the soundbar or look for a cable marked
"with Ethernet".
• Some 4K HDR TVs require the HDMI input or pic-
ture settings to be set for HDR content reception.
For further setup details on HDR display, please
refer to the operating instructions of your TV.
Option 2 - Standard HDMI
If your TV is not HDMI ARC-compliant, connect your
Soundbar to the TV through a standard HDMI con-
nection.
