Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up the system is straightforward: connect the main bar to your TV using an HDMI (eARC) cable to ensure the highest bandwidth for audio signals. Once powered on, the subwoofer and rear speakers automatically pair with the main bar. Use the SmartThings app or your Samsung TV's settings menu to initiate SpaceFit Sound Pro calibration. For care, keep the fabric-covered sections dust-free by gently using a soft-bristled vacuum attachment or a microfiber cloth. Avoid placing heavy items on the soundbar and ensure all wireless components have a clear line of sight to the main bar where possible for signal stability.
