Some functions of this unit are controlled by TV’s remote control when this unit and  
LG TV with SIMPLINK are connected through HDMI connection.  
Controllable functions by LG TV’s remote control; Play, Pause, Scan, Skip, Stop,  
Power Off, etc.  
Refer to the TV owner’s manual for the details of SIMPLINK function.  
LG TV with SIMPLINK function has the logo as shown above.  
Use a higher version cable than 1.2A HDMI cable.  
CAUTION: The apparatus should not be exposed to water (dripping or splashing) and no objects  
filled with liquids, such as vases, should be placed on the apparatus.  
CAUTION concerning the Power Cord  
Most appliances should be placed on a dedicated circuit;  
That is, a single outlet circuit which powers only that appliance and has no additional outlets or  
branch circuits. Check the specification page of this owner's manual to be certain.  
Do not overload wall outlets. Overloaded wall outlets, loose or damaged wall outlets, extension  
cords, frayed power cords, or damaged or cracked wire insulation are dangerous. Any of these  
conditions could result in electric shock or fire. Periodically examine the cord of your appliance,  
and if its appearance indicates damage or deterioration, unplug it, discontinue use of the  
appliance, and have the cord replaced with an exact replacement part by an authorized servicer.  
Protect the power cord from physical or mechanical abuse, such as being twisted, kinked,  
pinched, closed in a door, or walked upon. Pay particular attention to plugs, wall outlets, and the  
point where the cord exits the appliance.  
To disconnect power from the unit, unplug the unit from the outlet. When installing the product,  
ensure that the plug is easily accessible.

Be careful of the following  
About Ferrite Core  
Be careful to make sure children do not put their hands or any objects into  
the *speaker duct.  
Be sure to attach the ferrite core to the speaker cables and SOUND SIG-  
NAL cable (for connecting to this unit and wireless receiver).  
*Speaker duct: A hall for plentiful bass sound on speaker cabinet(enclosure).  
This ferrite core can reduce noises.  
Set the distance between this unit and Wireless Receiver within 10m.  
Optimum performance can be implemented only when the Wireless  
Transmitter and the Wireless Receiver within distance of 2m to 10m is used  
since communication failure may occur if longer distance is used.  
Be sure to match the speaker cable to the appropriate terminal on the com-  
ponents: + to + and – to –. If the cables are reversed, the sound will be dis-  
torted and will lack bass.  
It takes a few seconds (and may take longer) for the Wireless Transmitter and  
Wireless Receiver to communicate with each other.  
When the unit is turned off, the Wireless Transmitter is in standby mode (off)  
automatically after about 10 seconds.  
How to attach the ferrite core

2
Press the stopper [a] of the ferrite core to open.  
Wind the speaker cables once on the ferrite core. Pass the SOUND SIG-  
NAL cable and speaker cables straight and wind the cable of woofer once  
on the ferrite core. Attach the ferrite core near the unit and the wireless  
receiver (Refer to the fig.3 and comment.).

Close the ferrite core until it clicks.  
If the Wireless Transmitter is turned off, the Wireless Receiver will not func-  
tion.

Adjust the audio settings  
Setting the sound mode  
VSM (VIRTUAL SOUND MATRIX) and Dolby Pro Logic II  
DRC (Dynamic Range Control) – Make the sound clear when the volume is  
turned down (Dolby Digital only). Set to [On] for this effect.  
You can select the Dolby Pro Logic II or Virtual sound. Press VSM to set the vir-  
tual sound or to change sound mode repeatedly.  
Vocal – Select [On] to mix karaoke channels into normal stereo. This function is  
effective for multi-channel karaoke DVDs only.  
[BYPASS] mode : Software with multichannel surround audio signals is played  
according to the way it was recorded.  
HD AV Sync - Sometimes Digital TV encounters a delay between picture and  
sound. If this happens you can compensate by setting a delay on the sound so  
that it effectively ‘waits’ for the picture to arrive: this is called HD AV Sync. Use vV  
to scroll up and down through the delay amount, which you can set at anything  
between 0 and 300m sec.  
2Ch source  
[PL II MOVIE] mode: The Movie mode is for use with stereo television shows  
and all programs encoded in Dolby Surround. The result is enhanced sound  
field directionality that approaches the quality of discrete 5.1-channel sound.  
[PL II MUSIC] mode: The Music mode is for use with any stereo music  
recordings.  
[PL II MATRIX] mode: The Matrix mode is the same as the Music mode  
except that the directional enhancement logic is turned off. It may be used to  
enhance mono signals by making them seem “larger.” The Matrix mode may  
also find use in auto systems, where the fluctuations from poor FM stereo  
reception can otherwise cause disturbing surround signals from a logic  
decoder. The ultimate “cure” for poor FM stereo reception may be simply to  
force the audio to mono.  
The delay will vary depending on which digital TV channel you are on. If you  
change channel you may need to readjust the HD AV Sync.  
Adjust the lock settings  
To access the lock options, you must enter the 4-digit password. If you have not

menu. Input ‘210499’ and press ENTER. The password has now been cleared.  
[ON STAGE] mode: Simulates a large Concert hall  
Rating – Select a rating level. The lower the level, the stricter the rating. Select  
[VIRTUAL] mode: Realtime 3D positioned sound rendering technology  
with stereo sources, optimized for stereo speakers. Listeners may expe-  
rience amazing virtual surround effects with their own multimedia play-  
ers.  
[Unlock] to deactivate the rating.  
Password – Sets or changes the password for lock settings.  
[New]: Enter a new 4-digit password using the numerical buttons then press  
ENTER. Enter the password again to confirm.  
5.1Ch source  
[Change]: Enter the new password twice after entering the current password.  
[VIRTUAL] mode: The Multichannel sound changes the sound in 5.1 ch  
into a virtual one in the 10.1 ch so that it provides such a feeling that  
you listen to the sound simultaneously from the right and left speakers  
and center speaker.  
Area code – Select a code for a geographic area as the playback rating level.  
This determines which area’s standards are used to rate DVDs controlled by the  
parental lock. See the Area Codes on page 24.
