Connecting a digital sound bar to use Audio Return Channel (ARC)
If you’d like to use the Audio Return Channel (ARC) feature to have sound sent from the TV back down an HDMI cable
to a digital sound bar, then you will need to connect the cable to the

port. By using this feature, you will
also be able to control the sound bar with your TV remote instead of using multiple remotes for each device.
To connect a digital sound bar with an HDMI cable (not provided):
1. Connect the cable that’s attached to the sound bar to the
HDMI / ARC
port on the TV.
2. Turn on the sound bar by pressing the Power button.
3. Press the
[ ]
button on your remote and select the
Settings
icon, then go to
Sound
>
Speakers
.
4. Select the
ARC
option.

• If the device has an Input Selector feature then make sure to change it to TV.
• 5.1 CH (channel) audio is available when the TV is connected to an external device that supports a 5.1 channel
surround sound. You can go to the
