Such components commonly are called Electrostatically Sensitive (ES) Devices. Examples of typical ES devices are integrated circuits and some field effect transistors and semiconductor "chip" components. The following techniques should be used to help reduce the incidence of component damage caused by static electricity. 1. Immediately before handling any semiconductor component or semiconductor-equipped assembly, drain off any electrostatic charge on your body by touching a known earth ground. Alternatively, obtain and wear a commercially available discharging wrist strap device, which should be removed for potential shock reasons prior to applying power to the unit under test. 2. After removing an electrical assembly equipped with ES devices, place the assembly on a conductive surface such as aluminum foil, to prevent electrostatic charge build-up or exposure of the assembly. 3. Use only a grounded-tip soldering iron to solder or unsolder ES devices. 4. Use only an anti-static solder removal device. Some solder removal devices not classified as "anti-static" can generate electrical charges sufficient to damage ES devices. 5. Do not use freon-propelled chemicals. These can generate electrical change sufficient to damage ES devices. 6. Do not remove a replacement ES device from its protective package until immediately before you are ready to install it. (Most replacement ES devices are packaged with leads electrically shorted together by conductive foam, aluminum foil or comparable conductive material.) 7. Immediately before removing the protective material from the leads of a replacement ES device, touch the protective material to the chassis or circuit assembly into which the device will be installed. CAUTION : Be sure no power is applied to the chassis or circuit, and observe all other safety precautions. 8. Minimize bodily motions when handling unpackaged replacement ES devices. (Otherwise harmless motion such as the brushing together or your clothes fabric or the lifting of your foot from a carpeted floor can generate static electricity sufficient to damage an ES devices. Each precaution in this manual should be followed during servicing. Components identified with the IEC symbol in the parts list are special significance to safety. When replacing a component identified with , use only the replacement parts designated, or parts with the same ratings or resistance, wattage, or voltage that are designated in the parts list in this manual. Leakage-current or resistance measurements must be made to determine that exposed parts are acceptably insulated from the supply circuit before retuming the product to the customer.

EQ Switch: This switch adjusts the soundbar's bass for either wall or table mounting. If you're mounting the soundbar on a wall with the included wall-mount brackets, set this switch to the Wall position for the most natural-sounding bass performance. If you are placing the soundbar on a table, set the EQ switch to the Table position for the most natural-sounding bass performance. Trim Switch: This switch adjusts the soundbar's input sensitivity so it will work with TVs that have different audio signal output levels. See Soundbar Trim Switch, on page 10, for more information. Source 1 Connection (analog): Use the included stereo audio cable to connect the stereo analog outputs of your TV, DVD player or cable/satellite tuner here. Source 2 Connection (digital): If your TV, DVD player or cable/satellite tuner has a coaxial digital output, you can connect it here. NOTE: If you connect your TV or another component to the soundbar's Source 1 connection, you can connect a different component to the Source 2 connection. Power Connection: Connect the included DC power supply here. See Power Connections, on page 8, for more information. IMPORTANT: Do not connect the power supply's AC cord to an AC outlet until you have made and verified all connections. Power Switch: Set this switch to the On position (press the switch's white dot) to activate the soundbar. In normal operation, this switch will be left in the On position.

The higher you set the Crossover knob, the higher in frequency the subwoofer will operate and the more its bass will "overlap" that of the soundbar. This adjustment helps achieve a smooth transition of bass frequencies between the subwoofer and the soundbar for a variety of different rooms and subwoofer locations. See Subwoofer Crossover Knob, on page 10, for more information. Volume Knob: Use this control to balance the subwoofer's volume with that of the soundbar. Turn the knob clockwise to increase the subwoofer's volume; turn it counterclockwise to decrease the subwoofer's volume. Phase Switch: This switch determines whether the subwoofer driver's piston-like action moves in and out in phase with the speakers in the soundbar. If the subwoofer were to play out of phase with the soundbar speakers, the sound waves from the soundbar could cancel out some of the sound waves from the subwoofers, reducing bass performance and sonic impact. This phenomenon depends in part on the placement of the subwoofer and soundbar relative to each other in the room. See Subwoofer Phase Switch, on page 10, for more information. Wireless Code Switch: Selects between four different channels for the wireless subwoofer signal. IMPORTANT: Be sure to set the soundbar's Wireless Code switch to the same channel as you set the subwoofer's Wireless Code switch. See Wireless Code Switches, on page 10, for more information. AC Fuse: The SB 15/230 SUB is factory-equipped with a T1AL/250V 1A 250V AC fuse. If the fuse ever blows: 1. Unplug the power cord from the wall. 2. Use a screwdriver to remove the blown fuse. 3. Replace the fuse with an identical T1AL/250V 1A 250V AC fuse. CAUTION: FOR CONTINUED PROTECTION AGAINST FIRE, REPLACE THE FUSE ONLY WITH THE SAME TYPE AND RATING. Power Cord: Plug this cord into an active, unswitched AC outlet. See Power Connections, on page 8, for more information. Power Switch: Set this switch to the On position to activate the subwoofer. In normal operation, this switch will be left in the On position. See Turning the Subwoofer On and Off, on page 9, for more information. Status Indicator (on top of unit, not shown): Turns blue when the subwoofer's power switch is in the On position; turns amber when the subwoofer is in Standby; turns off when the subwoofer's Power switch is in the Off position. 5 Page 20 of 29 harman/kardon SB 16/230 SB 16/230 Service Manual Speaker Placement Speaker Placement Placing the Soundbar on a Table If your TV is placed on a table, you can place the soundbar on the table directly in front of the TV stand, centered with the TV screen. Attach the supplied rubber feet to the soundbar as shown in the illustration. 4. Attach the two wall-mount brackets to the wall at the locations you marked, using hardware that is appropriate for the wall's construction and materials. Note that the soundbar weighs 3.6kg (8 lb). Be sure to use hardware that can support this weight. 5. After making all of the connections described in the Connections section, on page 7, attach the soundbar to the brackets by sliding the slots in its feet onto the brackets' vertical tabs. As long as the table's surface is flat, the soundbar will rest on the rubber feet. Wall-Mounting the Soundbar If your TV is attached to a wall, you can use the included wall-mount brackets to mount the soundbar on the wall directly below the TV screen. 1. Determine the location for the soundbar on the wall. Make sure that the top of the soundbar will not block your view of the TV screen when it is mounted on the wall. 2. Mark the locations of the soundbar wall-mount bracket holes on the wall. The holes for the left and right brackets are spaced 600mm apart and are designed to accept #8 screws. The top and bottom holes for each bracket are spaced 25mm apart. See the illustration below. 600mm 25mm NOTE: To ensure that the soundbar will be level, use a carpenter's level, laser sight or other device to ensure that the two sets of holes are at exactly the same height. 3. If you are using the soundbar's optical digital audio input, select the extended wall-mount brackets. Otherwise, select the shallow wall-mount brackets. Slide Slots in Soundbar Feet onto Tabs on Brackets Placing the Subwoofer Since our ears do not hear directional sound at the low frequencies where the subwoofer operates, it will perform well from just about any location in your room. However, the strongest bass reproduction is likely to be heard when the subwoofer is placed in a corner along the same wall as the soundbar. IMPORTANT: Make sure that the subwoofer's rear panel is at least 150mm (6") from the wall to allow proper operation of its port tube opening. SB 16 CTR Soundbar Subwoofer Subwoofer Rear Panel at Least 150mm from Wall When Optical Digital Input is Used When Optical Digital Input is Not Used You can experiment with subwoofer placement by temporarily placing the subwoofer in the listening position and playing music with strong bass content. Move around to various locations in the room while the system is playing and listen until you find the location where the bass performance is best. Place the subwoofer in that location. IMPORTANT: The maximum wireless operating distance between the soundbar and subwoofer is approximately 15.3m (50 feet). 6 Page 21 of 29 ENGLISH harman/kardon SB 16/230 Connections Source Connections Analog: Use the supplied stereo audio cable to connect the soundbar's Source 1 (analog) input to your TV's stereo audio output. If your TV has two sets of audio output jacks, use the set that has a fixed (not variable) output level. This will let you turn your TV's speakers all the way off while the TV still supplies a constant audio signal to the soundbar. Digital: If your DVD player, cable tuner or satellite tuner have coaxial or optical digital outputs, you can use the supplied optical digital audio cable and a coaxial digital audio cable (not supplied) to connect them to the soundbar's Optical and Coaxial digital inputs. NOTE: If your DVD player, cable tuner or satellite tuner does not have a coaxial digital output, you can connect its analog audio output to your TV. The TV will send its audio signal to the soundbar through the analog connection described above.

On Position Adjusting the System's Volume Press the soundbar's Volume Up and Down buttons to raise and lower the system's volume one step at a time. Hold down the buttons to raise or lower the volume continuously. NOTE: The lowest setting of the Volume Down button will mute the system. Volume Buttons Power Switch Power Switch Standby Position Turning the Soundbar On and Off Manually: To turn the soundbar on manually, momentarily press the soundbar's Power button. Power Button If the system will not play loud enough or quiet enough, adjust the Trim Switch (see Soundbar Trim Switch, on page 10). For the best sound, we recommend turning your TV's built-in speakers off. Consult your TV's owner's manual to find out how to do this. If there is no way to turn your TV's speakers off, you can adjust the TV's volume so that your SB 16/230 system will always supply most of the sound: 1. Using the volume buttons on your TV, turn its volume all the way down. 2. Then use the soundbar's Volume Up/Down buttons to set the sound to a comfortable listening level. This way, your SB 16/230 system should always be louder than your TV's speakers. NOTE: This may reduce the volume of your TV's output connection, so you may have to set the soundbar's Trim Switch to position 3 to compensate. See Soundbar Trim Switch, on page 10. To put the soundbar into Standby manually, hold the Power button for at least three seconds. NOTE: If you put the soundbar into Standby manually, you can turn it back on only by manually pressing the Power button again. Auto turn-on: The soundbar has a signal detector that will automatically turn the unit on when it senses an audio signal at any of its inputs. To minimize power consumption, the signal detector is not activated unless the soundbar first senses any kind of IR remote signal. This does not have to be a remote code that has been learned by the soundbar (see Programming the Soundbar to Respond to Your TV Remote, on page 11) turning your TV on or changing its volume via its remote will be enough. Once the soundbar's signal detector has been activated, the unit will automatically turn from Standby to On as soon as it detects an input signal at any of its Source input connections. Auto turn-off: The soundbar will automatically enter the Standby mode if no audio signal is detected at any of its Source input connections for approximately 15 minutes. If you have programmed the soundbar to respond to your TV remote's on and off commands, you can manually put the soundbar into the Standby mode without having to hold its Power button for three seconds. See Programming the Soundbar to Respond to Your TV Remote, on page 11. If you will be away from home for an extended period of time, or if you will not be using the system for an extended period, set the soundbar's Power switch to Off. Turning the Subwoofer On and Off The subwoofer will automatically turn itself on when it receives an audio signal, and it will return to the Standby mode when it has received no audio signal for 15 minutes. The subwoofer's LED will turn blue when the subwoofer is on, and will turn amber when the subwoofer is in Standby. If you will be away from home for an extended period of time, or if you will not be using the system for an extended period, set the subwoofer's Power switch to the Off position. Muting the System Momentarily press the soundbar's Power button to mute the system. (The Power Indicator flashes blue.) Momentarily press the Power button again to un-mute the system. (The Power Indicator turns to a steady blue.) Power Button Soundbar Surround Mode Button This button switches the sound between normal stereo (the Surround Mode Indicator turns white) and 3D Surround (the Surround Mode Indicator turns blue). The 3D Surround setting will produce a complete surround-sound experience for anyone sitting in front of and several feet away from the soundbar. Although it is particularly effective when watching movies, you can also try the 3D Surround setting for music. Surround Mode Button Soundbar SRC (Source) Button Each press of this button switches the soundbar's audio source between the optical digital connection, the coaxial digital connection and the analog connections. Source Button 9 Page 24 of 29 harman/kardon SB 16/230 SB 16/230 Service Manual Operation Subwoofer Volume Knob Use the subwoofer's Volume knob to balance the bass with the rest of the sound. Play music or movies that you are familiar with and adjust the subwoofer's Volume knob so the bass sounds balanced on both music and films. Listen to several different music recordings and film soundtracks that contain strong bass passages, and find a setting for the Volume knob that doesn't over-emphasize the bass or make it sound weak. Subwoofer Crossover Knob The subwoofer's Crossover knob adjusts the subwoofer's crossover between 50Hz and 150Hz. The higher you set the Crossover knob, the higher in frequency the subwoofer will operate and the more its bass will "overlap" that of the soundbar. This adjustment helps achieve a smooth transition of bass frequencies between the subwoofer and the soundbar for a variety of different rooms and subwoofer locations. Volume Knob Crossover Knob Once you find a setting for the subwoofer's Volume knob that balances the bass with the rest of the sound, you shouldn't have to change it. Soundbar Trim Switch This switch adjusts the soundbar's audio input sensitivity so it will work with TVs that have different audio signal output levels. If your TV's audio signal output is low, the soundbar may not play loud enough. In this case, set the Trim switch to position 3 so the soundbar will play louder. If your TV's audio signal output is high, you may hear distortion in the soundbar at normal listening volumes. In this case, set the Trim Switch to position 1 to reduce the distortion and improve the sound. To set the Crossover knob, listen for the smoothness of the bass. If the bass seems too strong at certain frequencies, try a lower Crossover knob setting. If the bass seems too weak at certain frequencies, try a higher Crossover knob setting. Subwoofer Phase Switch This switch determines whether the subwoofer's piston-like action moves in and out in phase with the speakers in the soundbar. If the subwoofer were to play out of phase with the soundbar speakers, some of the sound waves produced by the soundbar and subwoofer could be canceled out at some frequencies, reducing bass performance and sonic impact. This phenomenon depends in part on the relative placement of all the speakers in the room. Phase Knob Trim Switch Wireless Code Switches In the unlikely event that you encounter interference when operating the system, or if you have more than one SB 16/230 system in operation, you may change the wireless channel at which the system operates. There are four-position Wireless Code switches on both the soundbar and subwoofer. To change the wireless channel, simply set each of the switches to one of the other three positions. IMPORTANT: The switches on the soundbar and the subwoofer must be set to the same position for the wireless system to work properly. Although there is no absolutely correct setting for the Phase switch, in most cases it should be left in the 0° position. When the subwoofer is properly in phase with the soundbar speakers, the sound will be clearer and have more impact. This will make percussive sounds like drums, piano and plucked strings sound more lifelike. The best way to set the Phase switch is to listen to music that you are familiar with and adjust the switch so that drums and other percussive sounds have maximum impact. Wireless Code Switch Soundbar Wireless Code Switch Subwoofer NOTE: The maximum wireless operating distance between the soundbar and subwoofer is approximately 50 feet (15.3m). 10 Page 25 of 29 ENGLISH harman/kardon SB 16/230 SB 16/230 Service Manual Programming the Soundbar to Respond to Your TV Remote Programming the Soundbar to Respond to Your TV Remote You can program the soundbar so it will respond to your TV remote's power off, mute, volume up, volume down and source commands. This programming lets you control your whole home theater system with a single remote. Before beginning to program the soundbar, have your TV remote in hand. We recommend sitting down in front of the soundbar. NOTE: Some steps will time out, so read through this entire procedure before you begin. Have the remote handy. When you start the remote programming after step 4, be ready to aim the TV remote at the front of the soundbar from about 300mm 900mm (about 12 36 inches) away. To program the Mute command: Repeat steps 1 and 2. At step 3, press and hold the soundbar's Power button until the Surround and Source buttons switch to constant illumination. Then proceed to step 4. To erase all remote programming: Ensure that the soundbar is on, then simultaneously press and hold the soundbar's Surround Mode and Volume Up buttons until the lights in all the buttons flash. 300mm (12") TV Remote NOTE: If at any time the Surround and Source buttons both stop flashing, and the soundbar returns to the power-on state, the programming operation has failed. In this case, restart at step 2. To program the power off, surround, volume down, volume up or source command: 1. Ensure that the soundbar is on. 2. Simultaneously press and hold the soundbar's Power and Source buttons until the visible Surround button flashes blue (the Power and Source buttons also flash but are covered by your fingers). If the buttons do not flash after three seconds, release the buttons and try again. Hold down both buttons until the Power, Surround and Source buttons indicators flash 3. You now have 20 seconds to momentarily press the soundbar button that you want to program (Power, Surround, Volume Down, Volume Up, Source), or the programming operation will fail and you must restart at step 2. When you are successful, the soundbar Power button light will turn off. Momentarily press the button you want to program 4. You now have 5 seconds to aim the TV remote at the front of the soundbar and slowly and repeatedly press and release the corresponding button on the remote until the Surround and Source buttons on the soundbar flash and then, after a few seconds, return to constant illumination. This indicates that the programming operation has been successful. Otherwise you must restart at step 2. 11 Page 26 of 29 harman/kardon SB 16/230 SB 16/230 Service Manual Troubleshooting Troubleshooting If your SB 16/230 system isn't performing the way you think it should, check to see if the problem is covered in this section before calling your dealer or contacting a harman kardon representative.
