Frequently Asked Questions - TH-WL709H JVC

How do I pair the wireless subwoofer with the soundbar?
The subwoofer pairs automatically within 30 seconds after both units are powered on. If pairing fails, unplug both for 3 minutes, then press and hold the PAIR button on the subwoofer while pressing and holding Power and SOURCE on the soundbar. The subwoofer indicator will turn solid orange when successful.
What should I do if there is no sound from the soundbar?
First, ensure the unit is not muted (press MUTE or VOL +/-). Check that the correct input source is selected. If using digital connections (HDMI, Optical, Coaxial), set the audio output of the source device to PCM or Dolby AC-3. Also verify the subwoofer is within 5 m and properly paired.
Why is my remote control not working?
Check that the remote is within 5 metres and pointed at the sensor. Replace the batteries if necessary (two AAA). Remove any obstacles between the remote and the soundbar.
How do I connect my Bluetooth device?
Press SOURCE repeatedly or PAIR on the remote to select Bluetooth mode. On your device, search for TH-WL709X and pair. If prompted, enter password 0000. The display will show PAIRED when connected.
Why is my TV remote not controlling the soundbar volume?
Ensure your TV supports HDMI-CEC and ARC. Connect the soundbar's HDMI OUT (ARC) to the TV's HDMI ARC port. Enable CEC on your TV settings. The soundbar will then respond to TV remote volume and power commands.
Can I mount the soundbar on the wall?
Yes. Use the included wall brackets. Drill two holes 475 mm apart, insert dowels (not included), and screw in with a 3 mm gap. Lift the soundbar onto the screws. Ensure the wall can support the weight (2.1 kg).
How do I clean the soundbar and subwoofer?
Unplug both units. Use a slightly moist, lint-free cloth. Do not use cleaning fluids containing alcohol, ammonia, or abrasives. Never spray liquids directly on the units.
What does the DTS TruVolume feature do?
DTS TruVolume evens out volume fluctuations, such as loud commercials. Press DTS TVOL on the remote to toggle ON/OFF. When ON, the soundbar maintains a consistent loudness level across different sources.
How do I replace the remote control batteries?
Slide the back cover open and insert two AAA batteries, matching the polarity marks (+/-). Close the cover. Dispose of old batteries according to local regulations.
The subwoofer sound is intermittent. What can I do?
Move the subwoofer closer to the soundbar (within 5 metres) and remove any obstacles. Avoid placing it near other wireless devices that may cause interference. If the issue persists, re-pair the subwoofer.

JVC TH-WL709H - DTS TruVolume - 1

This feature is designed to level out the volume to provide a consistent loudness experience across sources. When watching a TV program and the adverts come on the volume level of the adverts is often louder than the program you are watching. This feature will level out the volume levels between the TV program and adverts. After TVOL (TruVolume) is switched ON, it can adjust the volume levels while watching TV or movies, which might cause the volume level dropping from time to time. If you notice this happening we recommend switching the feature off.
