This section involves various methods of connecting the Digital Home Cinema to other external components. Before moving or installing the product, be sure to turn off the power and disconnect the power cord.

Connecting the Speakers

Position of the DVD Player
Place it on a stand or cabinet shelf, or under the TV stand. The listening position should be located about 2.5 to 3 times the distance of the TV's screen size away from the TV. Example : or 32" TVs 2~2.4m (6~8feet) F For 55" TVs 3.5~4m (11~13feet)
Selecting the Listening Position

Front Speakersei

Place these speakers in front of your listening position, facing inwards (about 45) toward you. Place the speakers so that their tweeters will be at the same height as your ear. Align the front face of the front speakers with the front face of the center speaker or place them slightly in front of the center speakers.
Center Speaker Rear Speakers
It is best to install it at the same height as the front speakers. You can also install it directly over or under the TV. P lace these speakers behind your listening position. If there isn't enough room, place these speakers so they face each other. Place them about 60 to 90cm (2 to 3feet) above your ear, facing slightly downward. U nlike the center speakers, the rear speakers are used to handle mainly sound effects and sound will not * come fromfront and the time. them all

HDMI FUNCTION

resolution Selection
This function allows the user to select the screen resolution for HDMI output. In Stop mode, press and hold the SD/HD (Standard Definition/ High Definition) button on the remote control. ~ Resolutions available for the HDMI output are 576p(480p), 720p, 1080i/1080p. ~ SD(Standard Definition) resolution is 576p(480p) and HD (High Definition) resolution is 720p, 1080i/1080p.
If the TV does not support the configured resolution, you will not be able to see the picture properly. ` When a HDMI cable is connected, composite and component video signals are not output. ` See your TV owner's manual for more information on how to select the TV's Video Input source.
Why use HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface)? This device transmits a DVD video signal digitally without the process of converting to analog. You will get sharper digital pictures when using an HDMI connection.

USING BLUETOOTH

You can use a Bluetooth device to enjoy music with high quality stereo sound, all without wires!

What is Bluetooth?

Bluetooth is a new technology that enables Bluetooth-compliant devices to easily interconnect with each other using a short wireless connection. ~ A Bluetooth device may cause a noise or malfunction, depending on usage. ~ When a part of the body is in contact with the receiving/transmitting system of the Bluetooth device or the Home Cinema System. ~ Electrical variation from electrical jamming by the wall, corner or office partitioning. ~ Electrical interference from the same frequency-band devices including medical equipment, microwave oven and wireless LAN. ~ Pair the Home Cinema System with the Bluetooth device while maintaining a close distance. ~ The further the distance is between Home Cinema System and Bluetooth device, the worse the quality. If the distance exceeds the Bluetooth operational range, the connection is lost. ~ In poor reception-sensitivity areas, the Bluetooth connection may not work properly. ~ The Home Cinema System has an effective reception range of up to 10 m in all directions if there are no obstacles. The connection will be automatically cut off if the distance is out of this range. Even within this range, the sound quality may be deteriorated by obstacles such as walls or doors.

To connect the Home Cinema System to a bluetooth device
Check if the Bluetooth device supports the Bluetooth-compliant stereo headset function. 1. Press the FUNCTION button on the front panel of the home cinema system repeatedly until the "BT AUDIO" appears. ~ The mode switches as follows : DVD/CD D.IN AUX 1 AUX 2 USB (BT AUDIO) FM. ~ You will see WAIT for 2 seconds and then rEADY on the front display of the Home Theater System. Select the Bluetooth menu on the Bluetooth device you want to connect. (refer to Bluetooth device's user manual) Connect. Select a Stereo headset menu on the Bluetooth device. ~ You will see a list of scanned devices. 4. Select "Samsung Home Theater" from the searched list. ~ When the Home Cinema System is connected to the Bluetooth Bluetooth device, the Home Cinema System will display Device "Connect" on the front display, followed by the name of the connected Bluetooth device. ~ The Home Cinema System connection is complete. Play music on the connected device. ~ You can listen to the music playing on the connected Bluetooth device over the home cinema system.
You may be required to enter a PIN code(password) when connecting the Bluetooth device to the home cinema system. If the PIN code input window appears, enter <0000>. The Home Cinema System may control play related function only when connected device supports the function. If connected device dose not support some play related function, the Home Cinema System can't control the device. TThe Home Cinema System only supports Middle Quality SBC data(up to 237kbps@48kHz), and does not support High Quality SBC data(328kbps@44.1kHz). HT-Z210/TZ212/TZ215 doesn't support Bluetooth function.
