Subwoofer: The subwoofer should be positioned on the floor near the Soundbar, usually to the left or right-hand side of the TV.
The distance to the screen should not be less than 100 cm for CRT TVs and 50 cm for flat screen TVs.
Soundbar wall mounting (optional) / Screw length/diameter (Fig. 1): Be sure to use screws of the appropriate length and
diameter depending on the type of wall you plan to secure the soundbar to. Please note the information in Fig. 1.
1. Attach the wall brackets included with the product to the soundbar as shown in Fig. 1a.
2. Mark the position of the drill holes (gap 900mm) and drill two holes corresponding to the dowel size in the wall.
3. Put the dowels in the drill holes and insert the screws as shown in Fig. 1b.
4. Hang the soundbar onto the fastening screws (Fig. 1c).
Note:
• Improper wall mounting can result in accidents, injuries or damage. If you have any questions, please contact the customer
service center in your country.
• Before wall mounting, make sure the wall can support the weight of the soundbar.
• Magnat is not liable for accidents, injuries or damage resulting from improper wall mounting.
• Only mount the soundbar on a stable vertical wall.
• If the soundbar is installed on a ceiling or slope, the device may fall down and cause serious injury.
• Do not use screws that are shorter than those specified. Otherwise, there is a risk of the soundbar falling down.
• During wall mounting, the mains plug must not be plugged in and the soundbar must not be switched on. Otherwise, there is
a danger of electric shock.
SYSTEM INSTALLATION
Connecting a television (Fig. 2):
The SBW 280 is designed to be connected directly to a TV. It can be connected in three different ways:
a) Connecting the TV to the HDMI® port HDMI/ARC (Fig. 5, Pos. 14):
Connect your TV to this port if it has an HDMI® socket with ARC functionality (Audio Return Channel, HDMI® 2.0 standard).
If the HDMI® port on your TV also supports CEC functionality (Consumer Electronics Control), then basic functions of the
soundbar such as switching on/off, volume and mute can be controlled via your TV's remote control. The CEC functions that
are available vary from TV to TV and should be checked in each individual case. Please refer to the operating instructions
supplied with your TV for further information. Most manufacturers have their own name for the CEC function, however, most
end in the term „Link". Note: for reasons of a technical nature the CEC function is only available via HDMI® ports.
These functions may need to be activated in the TV's settings. Dolby Audio-Dolby Digital encoded signals can also be
reproduced via the built-in Dolby Audio.
The necessary HDMI® connecting cable is not included in delivery.
b) Connecting the TV to the optical digital input DIGITAL IN (Fig. 5, Pos. 16):
Use the supplied optical cable (F) and connect the digital audio output of your TV to the audio input DIGITAL IN (Abb. 5, Pos. 16)
of the soundbar. Dolby Audio-Dolby Digital encoded signals can also be reproduced via the built-in Dolby Audio decoders.
The necessary connecting cable is not included in delivery.
c) Connecting the TV to audio input AUX IN (Fig. 5, Pos. 17):
Use the supplied audio cable and connect the audio output on your TV to audio input AUX IN (Abb. 5, Pos. 17). If your TV has
an audio output with fixed level, this is preferable to the audio output with variable level.
Connecting additional devices to the SBW 280 (Fig. 2)
Connecting the device to a Bluetooth audio source:
Use the remote control to switch the soundbar to the Bluetooth mode. If you have previously connected a Bluetooth device,
the soundbar will automatically attempt to re-establish a connection with this device. If this is the case, you may be required
to manually reconfirm the connection on the source device. The connection can be resumed from a previously paired source
device at any time, as the Bluetooth function continues to operate in the background regardless of the input selected on the
soundbar, and it is only switched off completely when the standby mode is selected.
