How to connect the soundbar via Bluetooth?

Turn on the soundbar, press the BT button (or press the button on the device repeatedly) until Bluetooth mode is activated (blue LED). Enable Bluetooth on your phone, search for devices, and select "SB60BTS". The PIN is "0000" if prompted.

What to do if the soundbar does not turn on?

Check that the AC adapter is properly connected to the soundbar and a working power outlet. Ensure the outlet is switched on. If the problem persists, try another outlet or contact support.

How to reset the soundbar to factory settings?

The manual does not specify a reset procedure. You can try holding the power button for 10 seconds to force a restart. If the problem persists, contact support.

Can I use the soundbar with a TV without an optical output?

Yes, you can use the Auxiliary (AUX) input with a 3.5 mm jack cable. If your TV has a headphone output, you can connect it to the AUX input of the soundbar. You can also use an RCA to Jack adapter if needed.

Why is the sound cut off or weak?

What does the LED flashing mean?

The LED indicator shows the active mode: White = optical mode, Green = auxiliary mode, Blue = Bluetooth mode. Flashing may indicate standby or pairing search. Refer to the manual for details.

The soundbar goes into standby too quickly, how to disable this function?

Auto standby is enabled by default after 10 minutes without audio activity or button press. It cannot be disabled. To avoid standby, ensure the audio source emits continuously or use the remote regularly.
