The illustration below shows the flows of audio and video signals.

●

Refer to the operation manual of the equipment to be connected. 

●

Fully insert the plugs to avoid fuzzy pictures or noises.

●

Connecting via this method may disable TV internal speakers.

●

In some cases, a small background noise could emit from the sound bar, when you use the RCA audio output terminal 
connection from a TV-Set/DVD/Blu-ray Disc Player. In such case, please change the connection to the HDMI/ARC or 
headphone terminal connection. This effect depends on the used TV/DVD/Blu-ray Disc Player-Brand, model and age, 
and it is not a quality matter from the sound bar.

Connect to the TV using an optical digital cable or an audio cable.

●

Remove the battery if the sound bar will not be used for
a long period of time. This will prevent potential damage
due to battery leakage.

●

Do not use rechargeable battery (nickel-cadmium
battery, etc.).

●

Installing the battery incorrectly may cause the sound
bar to malfunction.

●

Batteries (battery pack or batteries installed) shall not
be exposed to excessive heat such as sunshine, fire or
the like.

●

Replace the battery if the operating distance is reduced
or if the operation becomes erratic. Purchase a “AA”
size battery (UM/SUM-3, R6, HP-7 or similar).

●

Periodically clean the transmitter on the remote control
and the sensor on the sound bar with a soft cloth.

●

Exposing the sensor on the sound bar to strong light
may interfere with operation. Change the lighting or the
direction of the sound bar.

●

Keep the remote control away from moisture, heat,
shock, and vibrations.

Point the remote control directly at the remote sensor on
the sound bar.
The remote control can be used within the range
shown below:

Press the ON/STAND-BY button on the sound bar or the
remote control.

●

The power turns on and the subwoofer indicator turns
blue. If the power does not turn on, check whether the
AC power lead is plugged in properly.

●

The system will automatically power on if TV or similar
component which supports HDMI CEC, is turned on.

To set the sound bar to stand-by mode:
Press the ON/STAND-BY button again on the main unit or
the remote control and the subwoofer indicator turns red.

●

A slight audio delay after TV is turned ON does not
mean that the system is faulty. This is normal.

●

“AQUOS speaker is enabled” message will be
displayed if SHARP LCD TV does not detect HT-SB60
during power on. However the message “AQUOS audio
with AQUOS LINK is enabled” will be displayed soon as
HT-SB60 is detected. These messages may vary for
other TV model.

●

The first time the sound bar is plugged in, the sound bar
will enter the demonstration mode.

●

To cancel the demonstration mode, press the DEMO
button on the remote control during power stand-by
mode. 

●

To enter to the low power consumption mode, press
and hold the DEMO button (Demo indicator turns off).

The sound bar and subwoofer will link automatically
(wirelessly) when turned on as it is already pre-linked at
the factory. If the link cannot be established, please set the
connection by the following method.
1. Press and hold the PAIRING button on the sound bar for

more than 3 seconds.

2. Within 2 minutes, press and hold the PAIRING button on

the subwoofer for more than 3 seconds.

●

During pairing process:  

Insert the supplied battery according to the terminal
indicated in the battery compartment.
When inserting or removing the battery, push it towards 
the 

 battery terminals.

●

When pairing is successful:

●

If a device such as microwave oven, wireless LAN card,
Bluetooth device or any other device that uses the
same 2.4GHz frequency near the system, some sound
interruption may be heard due to interference.

●

The transmission distance of the wireless signal
between the subwoofer and sound bar is about 10m,
but may vary depending on your operating
environment. If a steel-concrete or metallic wall is
between the subwoofer and the sound bar, the system
may not operate at all, because the wireless signal
cannot penetrate metal.

●

Keep the subwoofer away from water and moisture.

●

To get the optimum listening performance, make sure
the area around the sound bar and subwoofer is clear
of any obstacles.

Press the DIMMER button to adjust the brightness of the
display.

If you turn off and on the sound bar with the volume set to
80 or higher, the volume starts at 40 and fades in to the last
set level.

Remote control operation:
Press the VOL + button to increase the volume and the
VOL – button to decrease the volume.

Note:
When the sound bar is turned off and back on again,
muting is cancelled.

Sound bar operation:
To change to a different mode, press the SOUND MODE
button repeatedly until the desired sound mode is
displayed.
Remote control operation:
Press the desired sound mode button on the remote
control.

 

 

●

When sound from the speaker is distorted, decrease
the subwoofer level.

●

When changing the subwoofer level, the output level of
the subwoofer is also changed.

On sound bar:

“PAIRING” disappears.

On subwoofer:

indicator turns blue.

Sound bar operation:
Press the VOLUME + 
button to increase the 
volume and the VOLUME – 
button for decreasing.

The audio return channel (ARC) function enables an HDMI
ARC-capable TV to send the audio stream to the HDMI OUT
socket of the receiver. To use this function, you must select
the TV ARC input and your TV must supports the ARC.

S+ 3D technology creates 3D sound through speakers
regardless of the type of sound source, whether it is
monaural, stereo or multichannel. It simulates sound
transmission characteristics using digital signal processing
to create a widening effect on the sound in the ambient
space around the sound source.

By using this technology, multichannel surround sound can
be produced from 2.1ch source.

Press the 3D AUDIO button repeatedly to select:

This product incorporates decoders supporting the Dolby
Digital system and DTS system.

You can operate Sharp TVs with this system’s remote
control.

When pressing the SOURCE button, the input source will
change. Press the SOURCE button repeatedly to select
desired input source, or 
press TV ARC button on the remote control to select TV ARC.

This sound bar can be set to turn off automatically if no signal is
detected.
1. Press the APC button repeatedly to select the time.

2. The sound bar will enter the power stand-by mode automatically 

if no signal is detected after the preset time has elapsed.
