4Follow all instructions.
5Do not use this apparatus near water.
6Clean only with dry cloth.
7Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in accordance with the
manufacturer's instructions.
8Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers,
stoves, or other apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat.
9Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type plug.
A polarized plug has two blades with one wider than the other. A
grounding type plug has two blades and a third grounding prong. The
wide blade or the third prong are provided for your safety. If the provided
plug does not fit into your outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of
the obsolete outlet.
10 Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at
plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the
apparatus.
11 Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.
12 Use only with the cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table
specified by the manufacturer, or sold with the apparatus.
When a cart is used, use caution when moving the
cart/apparatus combination to avoid injury from tip-over.
13 Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when
unused for long periods of time.
14 Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required
when the apparatus has been damaged in any way, such as when the
power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects
have fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to rain or
moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.
15 To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose this device to
rain, moisture, dripping, or splashing, and no objects filled with liquids,
such as vases, shall be placed on it.
16 An apparatus with a three-prong, grounding-type plug is a Class I
apparatus, which needs to be grounded to prevent possible electric
shock. Make sure that you connect any Class I device to a grounding-type,
three-prong outlet.
17 DO NOT overload wall outlets or extension cords beyond their rated
capacity as this can cause electric shock or fire.
18 The wall plug is the disconnecting device. The plug must remain readily
operable.
19 No naked flame sources, such as lighted candles, should be placed on the
apparatus.
20 The ventilation should not be impeded by covering the ventilation
openings with items, such as newspapers, tablecloths, curtains, etc.

21 The remote control supplied with this product contains a coin/button cell
battery. If the coin/button cell battery is swallowed, it can cause severe
internal burns in just 2 hours and can lead to death.
22 Batteries should not be exposed to excessive heat such as sunshine, fire,
or the like.
23 Keep new and used batteries away from children.
24 If the battery compartment does not close securely, stop using the
product and keep it away from children.
25 If you think batteries might have been swallowed or placed inside any
part of the body, seek immediate medical attention.
Placement
• The soundbar cabinet is made out of plastic and is therefore sensitive to
extreme temperatures and humidity. Do not put it in locations subject to
direct sunlight or in humid places, such as near an air conditioner,
humidifier, bathroom, or kitchen.
• Do not put water or other liquids close to the soundbar. If liquid is spilled on
top of the soundbar, it may be damaged.
• The soundbar should be placed on a sturdy, flat surface that is free from
vibration, or mounted on a wall. Do not put the soundbar on an uneven or
unstable surface, where it may fall and cause damage.
Using close to a TV or computer
Some older TVs and computer monitors are magnetically sensitive devices.
They are likely to suffer discoloration or picture distortion when conventional
speakers are placed nearby. If discoloration problems persist, try moving the
soundbar away from your TV or monitor.
Warning
Danger of explosion if the remote control battery is
incorrectly replaced. Replace only with the same or
equivalent type.
The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol within an
equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the
presence of uninsulated “dangerous voltage” within the
product’s enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude
to constitute a risk of electrical shock to persons.
The exclamation point, within an equilateral triangle, is
intended to alert the user to the presence of important
operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in
the literature accompanying the product.

5When pairing is completed the Bluetooth indicator on the top of your
soundbar turns on.
Disconnecting your devices
• Turn off the Bluetooth function on your device.
Reconnecting to a paired device
When your soundbar is not paired to a device, the LED indicator blinks
slowly.
Notes
• Some devices, such as an iPhone, connect
immediately after pairing so the Bluetooth
indicator on your soundbar remains on. Other
devices, such as notebook computers, may ask
you if you wish to connect. In this instance, the
Bluetooth indicator continues to blink until a
connection is established.
• Your soundbar saves pairing information for up
to eight devices. However, it can only be
connected and play content from one device at
a time.
• When you turn on your soundbar, it
automatically connects to the last connected
device if that device is in range. To connect to a
different paired device, turn off Bluetooth or
unpair from the currently paired device and
manually connect to the other paired device.
Your soundbar loses the Bluetooth connection
if you…
To reconnect...
Turn it off. Turn on your soundbar. Your soundbar searches
for the last connected Bluetooth device and
reconnects.
Move the Bluetooth device out of range. Move your Bluetooth device within 30 feet of
your soundbar.
Turn off your Bluetooth device. Turn on your Bluetooth device, then make sure
that Bluetooth is on.
Turn off Bluetooth on your Bluetooth device. Turn on Bluetooth on your Bluetooth device.
Connect your Bluetooth device to another
Bluetooth device.
Disconnect your Bluetooth device from the other
Bluetooth device, then set your device to pairing
mode. Select “NS-HSB318” on your Bluetooth
device.
Note
If a device does not automatically reconnect, you
may need to reselect “NS-HSB318” on your Bluetooth
device.

Maintaining your soundbar
Replacing the remote control battery
1Squeeze the battery tray’s sides together and slide it out of the remote

heat, such as sunshine, heat registers, or fire.
• Battery chemicals can cause a rash. If the battery
leaks, clean the battery compartment with a
cloth. If chemicals touch your skin, wash
immediately.
• Make sure that the battery is disposed of
correctly. Do not burn or incinerate.
Notes
• Remove the battery when the charge is
depleted.
• If the remote control is not going to be used for
a long time, remove the battery to avoid any
damage that may be caused by leakage and
corrosion.
