Turning off Haier • Roku TV speakers
When you use your Haier • Roku TV with a sound bar or an external amplifier and speakers, you’ll probably want to
turn off the internal TV speakers.
To turn off the TV’s built-in speakers, in the Home screen menu, navigate to Settings > Audio > TV speakers and
change the setting.
Tip : The TV’s internal speakers can be enabled and disabled automatically as needed by system audio
control, as described in “ Enabling system audio control ” on page 62 . The internal speakers are also
turned off when you use the headphone jack
Changing the audio mode
The TV has two audio modes, accessed by navigating in the Home screen menu to Settings >Audio > Digital audio out :
• Stereo – Use this setting for internal speakers, headphones, and external stereo amplifiers connected
through HDMI® ARC, Optical out, or headphone jack.
• Auto – Use this setting to automatically detect the best audio setting based on the audio stream in the
content you are watching. If you have connected the TV to an external Dolby Digital or Dolby Digital Plus
compatible amplifier, receiver, or sound bar through HDMI® ARC or Optical out, the TV automatically
selects the appropriate surround sound capabilities of the device based on the characteristics of the current
program.
Setting up a digital audio connection
You can connect the TV to an external amplifier, receiver, or sound bar by using either of these two connections:
• HDMI ARC – The HDMI® Audio Return Channel enables the TV to output digital audio on one of its HDMI®
connectors. The connected amplifier can also function simultaneously as an input source to the TV, if
needed. To use the ARC capability, you must connect an HDMI® cable from your amplifiers’ HDMI® ARC
connector to the HDMI ARC connector on the TV. You also must:
o Be sure your HDMI® cable is certified by HDMI®.
o Select the appropriate setting under Settings > Audio > Audio mode , as explained in “ Changing
the audio mode ” on page 61 .
o Enable HDMI ARC under Settings > System > Control other devices (CEC) , as explained in “ Enabling
HDMI® ARC ” on page 62 .
• Optical out – The TV has an Optical out connector that outputs a digital audio signal. To use the optical
output, connect a TOSLINK optical cable from the amplifier to the Optical out connector on the TV. You also
must:
o Select the appropriate setting under Settings > Audio > Audio mode , as explained in ““ Changing
the audio mode ” on page 61 .
Note : Dolby Digital Plus format is only output through the HDMI® ARC connection.
After making the required HDMI® ARC or Optical out connection, go to Settings > Audio > S/PDIF and ARC option and
select the audio format to use.
