3. Use your device’s Bluetooth-pairing menu to pair it with the JBL CINEMA
BASE. The system will appear as CINEMA BASE in the list of Bluetooth
available devices. When the JBL CINEMA BASE’s Bluetooth button LED
illuminates constantly, it is paired with your device and you can stream
audio via Bluetooth from the device to the JBL CINEMA BASE.
To listen to audio from the Bluetooth device, press the Bluetooth source button
on the JBL CINEMA BASE to activate the source. If the JBL CINEMA BASE is
in Standby mode, you can automatically wake up the system by starting to
stream an audio Bluetooth signal to the JBL CINEMA BASE as long as your
device has already been paired with the JBL CINEMA BASE.
To disconnect the Bluetooth device, press and hold the JBL CINEMA BASE’s
Bluetooth button until the LED begins flashing.
NOTE:
• You can manually switch sources to the paired Bluetooth
device by pressing the JBL CINEMA BASE’s Bluetooth
button.
• If you switch the JBL CINEMA BASE to a different
source while a paired Bluetooth device is streaming to
the system, the JBL CINEMA BASE will send a STOP
command and the Bluetooth device will stop streaming.
• While pairing the Bluetooth device for the first time, it may
reset the volume level to maximum.
Adjusting the System Volume
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
JBL CINEMA BASE system will always supply most of the sound:
1. Using the volume buttons on your TV, turn its volume all the way down.
2. Use the JBL CINEMA BASE’s Volume Up/Down buttons to set the sound to
a comfortable listening level.
This way, your JBL CINEMA BASE system should always be louder than your
TV speakers.
IMPORTANT:
If you play the JBL CINEMA BASE at more
than 50% of max volume it will automatically reset at 50% of
the max volume when it is turned off using either the power
button or the auto turn off function.
Surround Mode Button
Press the soundbase’s or remote’s Surround Mode indicator to switch the
sound between normal stereo and surround sound providing a complete
surround-sound experience for anyone sitting in front of and several feet
away from the soundbase. Although it is particularly effective when watching
movies, you can also take advantage of the Surround setting for adding to
your music-listening experience.
Programming JBL CINEMA BASE to Respond
to Your TV Remote
You can program the JBL CINEMA BASE to make it respond to your TV
remote’s power, mute, volume up and volume down commands. This
programming lets you control power and volume functions of your JBL
CINEMA BASE soundbase with your TV remote. Before beginning to program
the JBL CINEMA BASE, have your TV remote in hand. We recommend sitting
down in front of the soundbase.
NOTE:
Some steps will time out, so read through this
entire process before you begin.
Have the TV remote in hand. When you start programming the remote, be
ready to aim the TV remote to the front of the soundbase from about 300 mm
– 900 mm (12 – 36 inches) away.
TV remote
To program the power, volume down, volume up and mute commands:
1. Ensure that the JBL CINEMA BASE is ON.
2. On the soundbase, press and hold the top-panel Surround button until the
LED flashes amber. If the LED does not flash after three seconds, release
the buttons and try again.
3. Press the soundbase top-panel button that you want to program (Power,
Volume Down, Volume Up, Volume Down and Up simultaneously for Mute).
4. Aim the TV remote at the front of the soundbase and slowly press the
corresponding button on the TV remote until the Surround button on
the soundbase flashes white for one second. This indicates that the
programming operation has been successful.
5. To exit the learning mode (at any time or when the learning is complete),
press and hold the soundbase Surround button until the amber LED stops
flashing.
NOTE:
If you would like to program a new TV remote
control or you are missing a command, restart the whole
process.
Remote learning is not necessary with HDMI ARC connection
and CEC-compatible TVs: CINEMA BASE control is automatic
with your TV remote.
