Frequently Asked Questions - MXST90B SAMSUNG

How to connect two Sound Tower speakers in stereo mode?

To use stereo mode, you need two speakers of the same model. Press the ADD STEREO button on both speakers. The connection is made automatically: the main speaker (MAIN) will play the left channel and the second (SUB) the right channel. Make sure Bluetooth source is activated on the MAIN speaker.

What should I do if my Sound Tower does not turn on?

Unplug the power cord, wait a few seconds, then plug it back in and press the POWER button. If the problem persists, check the wall outlet. The remote control or app cannot turn on the speaker if it is off.

How to connect my phone via Bluetooth?

Press the PAIRING button on the back of the speaker or hold down the PAIRING button on the remote control for 5 seconds. On your phone, select [AV] MX-ST9B Series in the Bluetooth list. The LED blinks blue then becomes solid when the connection is established.

What does the pink flashing LED mean?

Pink flashing usually indicates a connection error, for example in Group Play or stereo mode. In this case, repeat the pairing procedure or turn the speakers off and on again.

Can I use a microphone with this speaker?

Yes, two dynamic microphones (not included) can be plugged into the MIC1 and MIC2 jacks on the back. Use the VOL and ECHO knobs to adjust volume and echo effect. The microphone sound is only output from the speaker it is connected to in Group Play or stereo mode.

How to update the firmware of the Sound Tower?

Download the update from the Samsung website onto a USB drive formatted in FAT/FAT32. Plug the drive into the USB2 port, then turn on the speaker. The update starts automatically. Do not unplug the power during the update.

What audio formats are played from a USB drive?

Supported formats are MP3, WMA (except WMA Pro), AAC, WAV, and FLAC. The drive must be formatted in FAT or FAT32. Up to 999 files and 256 folders are recognized.

How to use the DJ effect?

Press the DJ button on the remote control to cycle through effects: Noise, Filter, Crush, Chorus, WahWah. Use the EFFECT + or - buttons to adjust the effect intensity from -15 to +15. The effect can be turned off by selecting OFF.

Is the speaker water resistant?

The speaker is rated IPX5, meaning it is resistant to water splashes. To ensure waterproofing, make sure all covers (connectors and power inlet) are tightly closed. Do not use it in a shower or under pressurized water. Resistance is not guaranteed when the power plug is connected without the cover being closed.

How to reset the speaker in case of malfunction?

Unplug the power cord, wait about 30 seconds, then plug it back in and turn on the speaker. For a more complete reset, turn off the unit, hold down the ▶ (Play) button on the speaker for 5 seconds while turning it back on – this restores the sound settings to default.

CAUTION

WARNING

• To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose this appliance to rain or moisture.
• This product contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm.

CAUTION

• Do not expose this apparatus to dripping or splashing. Do not put objects filled with liquids, such as vases, on the apparatus.
• To turn this apparatus off completely, you must pull the power plug out of the wall socket. Consequently, the power plug must be easily and readily accessible at all times.

To avoid deterioration of water resistant

Check the following and use the unit correctly.

- Deformation or damage from dropping the unit or subjecting it to mechanical shock may cause deterioration of the water resistant.

- This unit does not have a design that is resistant to water pressure. Use of the unit in a location where high water pressure is applied, such as in the shower, may cause a malfunction.

- Do not pour high-temperature water or blow hot air from a hair dryer or any other appliance on the unit directly. Also never use the unit in a place subject to high temperatures, such as in a sauna or near a heat source.

- Handle the cap with care. Port cover and AC plug cover plays a very important role in maintenance of the water resistant. When using the unit, make sure that the cap is closed completely. When closing the cap, be careful not to allow foreign objects inside. If the cap is not closed completely the water resistant may deteriorate and may cause a malfunction of the unit as a result of water entering the unit.

- The product cannot be dumped to ensure it is water resistant.

- IPX5 cannot be met when any JACK is plugged in.

- In a state of electricity, IPX5 can be met when the power cord passes through the cover power slot and the cover power is completely closed, otherwise, it does not.

Do not place the unit on amplifiers or other equipment which may become hot. This unit is designed for continuous use. To fully turn off the unit, disconnect the AC plug from the wall outlet. Unplug the unit if you intend to leave it unused for a long period of time.
2. During thunderstorms, disconnect the AC plug from the wall outlet. Voltage peaks due to lightning could damage the unit.
3. Do not expose the unit to direct sunlight or other heat sources. This could lead to overheating and cause the unit to malfunction.
4. Protect the product from moisture (i.e. vases), and excess heat (e.g. a fireplace) or equipment creating strong magnetic or electric fields. Unplug the power cable from the AC wall socket if the unit malfunctions. Your product is not intended for industrial use. It is for personal use only. Condensation may occur if your product has been stored in cold temperatures.
