If a connection has not already been made or the connection cannot be re-established, the soundbar will automatically
activate the ‚pairing mode'. To switch the soundbar to the pairing mode manually, press the BT PAIR button (Fig. 7, Pos. 29) on
the remote control. The Display will flash, when the pairing mode is active.
Now activate the Bluetooth mode on your source device. The soundbar will appear in the list of Bluetooth devices as „SBW
280". If it is not displayed in the list, set your source device to search for Bluetooth devices manually and make sure that the
soundbar has been switched to the pairing mode.
Depending on the source device, you may be asked whether the password is to be accepted during the pairing procedure.
You can confirm this by simply pressing „Accept". If you are still asked for a password, use the default passwords „0000" or
„1234". If you are asked if you want to establish a connection after pairing, please select „Yes". When the device has been
paired and connected successfully, BT is displayed continuously.
The soundbar supports the „aptX®" high quality audio transmission standard. If your source device also supports this
standard, „aptX®" will be selected automatically as the transfer mode when establishing a Bluetooth connection.

Additional audio sources such as CD players, MP3 players and satellite receivers can also be connected to the analog input
AUX IN (Fig. 5, Pos. 17) and to the digital input DIGITAL IN (Fig. 5, Pos. 16) on the soundbar. When doing this proceed as
described in the previous section.

INITIAL START-UP, WIRELESS PAIRING OF THE SOUNDBAR WITH THE SUBWOOFER
Switch on the soundbar using the remote control (Fig. 7, Pos. 21) or on the control panel at the top ((Fig. 4, Pos. 3).
The soundbar and subwoofer will now be paired automatically. The blue LED on the subwoofer (Fig. 6a, Pos. 18) will flash rapidly
during this process. When pairing is successful, the LED will illuminate permanently. This can take up to 30 seconds.
If the automatic pairing process fails (the LED flashes slowly), please press the PAIR button on the subwoofer (Fig. 6b, Pos. 19) and
then on the soundbar (Fig. 5, Pos. 15) to repeat the pairing process.
When the subwoofer has been successfully paired, it will connect within a few seconds every time the soundbar is switched on.
Please note: If the soundbar is switched to standby mode, the subwoofer will also switch to standby mode automatically after
approximately one minute. The blue LED on the subwoofer will flash initially and then go out.
