Wireless transmitter module Switch the TV off with the power switch. Attach the wireless module to the back of the TV as shown. Connect the attached cable to the wireless module connector. Switch the TV on. Surround loudspeakers There are two surround loudspeakers supplied. One is the active loudspeaker A. The other loudspeaker B is a passive one which has to be connected with the active loudspeaker. The slide channel switch 1 at the bottom of the active loudspeaker has been set default to channel 1 in the factory. Connect the active to the passive loudspeaker with the supplied speaker cable 2. Insert the marked wire into the openings of the same coloured connector clips on both speakers. Do not insert the wires too far. The Surround sound loudspeakers can be located behind or to either side of the listener.The front of the loudspeakers do not have to face the listener.The distance between the TV and the surround speakers should not exceed 15 m. Note: In rare occasions people moving around close to the TV may interfere with the sound transmission. Connect the active loudspeaker to the mains with the mains cable 3. Switch on the active loudspeaker with the POWER switch 4. The red indicator at the front of the active surround speaker shows that the speaker is in standby. During sound transmission the indicator turns to green. 10-15 min. after the sound transmission of the TV has stopped, the indicator turns back to red to indicate the low power standby. To switch the active speaker off, use the POWER switch. Setup - Speakers menu Press the MENU key on the remote control. Use the cursor down to select Setup. Use the cursor right to select Speakers. Use the cursor down to select Wireless surround. The system has already been configured in the factory to work properly. In rare circumstances, interference from external RF (wireless) equipments such as RF headphones, mobile phones or remote controls for lights, may occur.Then it may be necessary to shift to another wireless channel. Important: Always be sure that the active surround speaker (A) and the Wireless surround setting are switched to the same transmitting channel. Otherwise no sound or only a distorted sound will be heard on the surround speakers. Select FM transmitter and select the correct type of transmitter, 864 MHz or 433 MHz, valid for the country where you are now located. When the TV is tuned to a channel in the neighbourhood of 864 MHz (alternatively 433 MHz), the transmitter is switched off because no RF surround sound is possible. This is necessary to avoid interfered picture. In rare cases, when no RF surround sound is possible or when there is too much interference, use the wired back up solution with a 3.5 mm stereo jack. In this case select Off in the Wireless surround menu item. See Connect Peripheral Equipment, p. 20.

Wireless Surround speaker system Are the active surround speaker and the Surround Sound setting in the Setup menu switched to the same transmitting channel? External RF equipment, mobile telephones or people moving around close to the TV may disturb the sound transmission. When no RF surround sound is possible, or when there is too much interference, try to switch to another wireless channel or use the wired back up solution. See Connect extra loudspeakers/amplifier, p. 20. When you switch to another wireless channel, take care to select the same transmitting channel as well in the setup menu as on the speaker box. For wireless transmitter modules with a built in antenna: direct the antenna to achieve the best reception. No solution Switch your TV off and then on again once.
