6. Connecting a Powered Subwoofer to the Soundbar

The ZVOX Audio soundbar has a monaural Subwoofer Output (a single RCA jack). You can

connect this signal output to the input of a powered subwoofer for stronger and deeper

bass output than what is available from the soundbar alone. For best results, the powered

subwoofer should have both volume and low-pass adjustments. Low-pass sets the upper

frequency limit of the powered subwoofer.

15. Grounding or Polarization–This product may be

equipped with a polarized alternating-current line

plug (a plug having one blade wider than the other).

This plug will t into the power outlet only one way.

This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the

plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the

plug should still fail to t, contact your electrician to

replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety

purpose of the polarized plug.

Alternate Warnings–This product is equipped with

a three-wire grounding-type plug, a plug having a

third (grounding) pin. This plug will only t into a

grounding-type power outlet. This is a safety feature.

If you are unable to insert the plug into the outlet,

contact your electrician to replace your obsolete

outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the

grounding-type plug.

16. Ventilation–Slots and openings in the cabinet

are provided for ventilation and to ensure reliable

operation of the product and to protect it from

overheating, and these openings must not be

blocked or covered. The openings should never be

blocked by placing the product on a bed, sofa, rug,

or other similar surface. This product should not be

placed in a built-in installation such as a bookcase

or rack unless proper ventilation is provided or the

manufacturer’s instructions have been adhered to.

17. The MAINS plug or an appliance coupler is used as the

disconnect device, the disconnect device shall remain

readily operable.

18. CLASS II apparatus with double insulation, and no

protective earth provided.

19. CAUTION: Danger of explosion if the remote control

battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace only with the

same or equivalent type.

20. WARNING: The remote control battery (battery or

8. Do not install near any heat sources such as

radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus

(including ampliers) that produce heat.

9. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized

or grounding-type plug. A polarized plug has two

blades with one wider than the other. A grounding

type plug has two blades and a third grounding

prong. The wide blade or the third prong are

provided for your safety. If the provided plug does

not t into your outlet, consult an electrician for

replacement of the obsolete outlet.

10. Protect the power cord from being walked on

or pinched particularly at plugs, convenience

receptacles, and the point where they exit from

the apparatus.

than 3/8" (10mm) in diameter. It is the installer’s

responsibility to conrm each mounting site used

to support the soundbar has an adequate weight-

handling margin to support both the weight of the

soundbar and extra weight that may inadvertently be

applied as a result of a house-hold accident. Damage

that may occur to the soundbar during or after the

mounting process or any other installation activity

is NOT covered under the terms of the ZVOX Audio

limited warranty.

STILL NEED ASSISTANCE? If your home TV system does not

conform to the descriptions in this guide, don’t hesitate to send an

inquiry to info@zvoxaudio.com or call ZVOX Audio at (866) 367-9869.

Please provide your TV brand and model number. A ZVOX Audio

representative should be available (Eastern Time Zone) 9:30 AM to

7:30 PM Monday through Friday.

Connect the Subwoofer Output on the soundbar to the powered subwoofer’s designated

monaural input.

Refer to Step 5 for a description of how to adjust the PS Menu on the Soundbar. Once the

powered subwoofer is connected to the soundbar, use the PS Menu on the soundbar to select

PS31. This stops the soundbar from playing deep bass, which can be produced by the powered

subwoofer. PS30 on the PS Menu restores deep bass output to the soundbar.

After setting the soundbar to PS31, the low-pass setting on the powered subwoofer should be set

to 85 Hz.

With the soundbar and powered subwoofer connected, the output level of the powered subwoofer

should be adjusted for best blend with the ZVOX Audio soundbar. A popular music recording with

consistent bass output is a good choice for this step.

For further information about the options provided by the PS menu, see the separate information

sheet Soundbar Adjustment Options, available online at ZVOX Audio's website.

7. Soundbar Wall Mounting Information

Dimensioned diagrams of each ZVOX Audio soundbar model can be found on

ZVOX Audio's website.

The soundbar has two keyhole mounting sites on its back panel. You can mount the

soundbar onto two screwheads using these mounting sites. A ZVOX Audio soundbar weighs

between 15 and 20 pounds. NOTE: It is the installer’s responsibility to ensure the screws are

installed into the wall or other surface securely and that the screwheads are the correct size

for the hanger mounts on the rear of the soundbar. ZVOX Audio recommends your mounting

sites be able to support at least twice the weight of the soundbar.

1. Speaker Placement

You can place the soundbar on any at, stable surface near your TV.

There are three general placement options, illustrated above:

Face Front You can place the soundbar on a at surface so it faces forward. This

placement is ideal for a shelf below, above or near the television.

Face Up You can place the soundbar facing up—often in front of the television. The

bottom of the soundbar should face the listening area. Check to ensure

the soundbar does not block the television infrared remote sensor. There

should be no shelf or at surface immediately above the soundbar in this

conguration.

Wall Mount The soundbar has two sturdy keyhole-shaped hanger mounts on the back

panel. You can hang the soundbar on two screwheads that are securely

installed in a wall or other vertical surface.

• If you have a powered subwoofer you wish to use with this soundbar, the subwoofer

connection guide is located on the last panel of this document.

• Consider the nish of the surface that will support the soundbar. It is the soundbar owner's

responsibility to insure that a surface nish that contacts the soundbar is protected,

should this be a concern of the soundbar owner. The contact area on the soundbar is

made of inert synthetic materials that typically do not react with furniture or wall nishes. But

any wall or surface nish can be altered by having any heavy object resting on it for a long

period of time. Place an appropriate barrier between any surface and the soundbar if you

are concerned about the nish of the supporting surface.

• A safe, secure installation is the soundbar owner’s responsibility.

• Use an unswitched AC outlet to provide power to the soundbar. With the soundbar's Auto

Standby feature turned on, the soundbar enters its low-power draw standby state after 20 to

30 minutes of inactivity. A soundbar uses less than 0.5 watt in Standby. Using a switched AC

outlet to cut off AC power to a soundbar system is not recommended. It delays subsequent

turn-on.

• Do not place any objects on top of a soundbar.

2. Connect Your TV's Audio Output to the Soundbar

All current TVs have an audio output. It is likely that one of the cables provided with the

soundbar can be used to connect the TV audio output to an input on the soundbar. DO NOT

disconnect any video program source connected to your TV (like a cable or satellite set top box,

DVD/Bluray or similar).

5. Tonal Prole Setting

The soundbar has three selectable tonal proles that allow it to better match the acoustics of its

room position. Use the soundbar's PS menu feature to choose one of these three settings.

Face Front ........ PS16 - on a at surface, facing front.

Face Up ............ PS17 - on a at surface, facing up.

Wall Mount ....... PS18 - on a vertical surface, facing into the room.

The default setting for the soundbar is Face Front.

If your soundbar’s position is Face Up or Wall Mount, you should select PS17 or PS18 from the

PS menu.

PS Menu: You adjust the PS Menu setting by rst pressing down on two buttons on the end

panel of the soundbar: Power ( ) and Volume Up (+). After about ve to seven seconds you

should see PS start ashing on the soundbar's display. The rst time you bring up the PS menu,

it should show “PS 0”.

Once you see the PS display, release the buttons. Then press and release the Volume Up button

to increase the PS number. Continue pressing and releasing the Volume Up button until you

reach the setting you want: PS16, PS17 or PS18.
