To mount the sound bar on the wall
Caution:
Be very careful to prevent the sound bar [5.07 lbs.
(2.3 kg)] from falling when mounting on the wall.
Before mounting, check the wall strength. (Do not
put on the veneer plaster or whitewashed wall. The
sound bar may fall.) If unsure, consult a quali ed
service technician.
Mounting screws are not supplied. Use appropri-
ate ones.
Check all wall mount angle screws for looseness.
Select a good location. If not, accidents may occur
or the sound bar may get damaged.
SHARP is not responsible for accidents result-
ing from improper installation.
Driving screws
SHARP designed the sound bar so you may hang
it on the wall. Use proper screws (not supplied).
See below for size and type.

Sound bar connections to TVs
Caution:
Turn off all other equipment before making any connections.
Notes:
To connect to TV, use Audio IN terminals located at the rear of the sound bar.
Refer the operation manual of the equipment to be connected.
Fully insert the plugs to avoid fuzzy pictures or noises.
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 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.
If the TV volume is continuously at low level, the sound bar will automatically
power off. Increase the TV output volume to enjoy the sound from the speaker.

Precautions for battery use:
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.
Caution:
Do not use rechargeable battery
(nickel-cadmium battery, etc.).
Danger of explosion if battery is in-
correctly replaced.
Replace only with the same or
equivalent type.
Batteries (battery pack or batteries
installed) shall not be exposed to ex-
cessive heat such as sunshine, re
or the like.
Installing the battery incorrectly may
cause the sound bar to malfunction.
Notes concerning use:
Replace the battery if the operating
distance is reduced or if the opera-
tion becomes erratic. Purchase “CR
2025”, coin lithium battery.
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 if this oc-
curs.
Keep the remote control away from
moisture, heat, shock, and vibra-
tions.

Listening to Bluetooth enabled devices (for HT-SB30)
About Bluetooth technology
Bluetooth wireless technology is a short-range radio
technology that enables wireless communication
between various types of digital devices, such
as mobile phone or computer. It operates within
a range of about 10 meters (30 feet) without the
hassle of having to use cables to connect these
devices. Since the Bluetooth technology does not
require line of sight between the communicating
devices, it is not necessary to line up the transmit-
ting device and the receiver, as in the case of infra
red technology.
Communication System and Bluetooth Pro le
of this sound bar
There are many available Bluetooth Profiles
describing the basic communication methods,
speci c functions and uses, to enable communica-
tion between devices.
This sound bar supports the following:
Communication System: Bluetooth Speci cation
version 2.1 Bluetooth + Enhanced Data Rate
(EDR) Pro le : A2DP (Advanced Audio Distribu-
tion Pro le)
A2DP enables audio streaming from an A2DP
equipped Bluetooth stereo audio source device
(eg mobile phone) to this sound bar. By convert-
ing wireless stereo audio signal to analogue audio
signal, you can enjoy listening to the sound through
this speaker system.
AVRCP (Audio/Video Remote Control Pro le) is a
technology that allows a single remote control to
control all Bluetooth enabled Audio Video equip-
ment to which a user has access.
Notes when using unit with a mobile phone
This unit cannot be used to talk over the tele-
phone even when there is a Bluetooth con-
nection made to a mobile phone.
Please refer to the operating manual supplied
with the mobile phone for details on operation
of your mobile phone while transmitting the
sound using a Bluetooth connection.

Pairing Bluetooth devices
Bluetooth devices need to be initially paired rst
before they can exchange data. Once paired, it is
not necessary to pair them again unless:
pairing is made with more than 8 devices.
Pairing can only be made one device at
a time. This sound bar can be paired to a
maximum of 8 devices. If subsequent device
is paired, the oldest device paired, will be de-
leted and replaced with the new one.

3
Perform pairing procedure on the source
device to detect this sound bar. (Refer
the source device operating manual for
details).
“SHARP HT-SB30” will appear in the detected
devices list (if available) in the source device.
Notes:
Place the devices to be paired within 1 me-
ter (3 feet) of each other when pairing.
Some source devices are unable to display
lists of detected devices. To pair this sound
bar with the source device, refer to the
source device operating manual for details.
4
Select “SHARP HT-SB30” from the source
list. If Passcode* is required, enter “0000”.
Pairing indicator (blue) on the sound bar will
stop blinking once the sound bar is success-
fully paired with the source device. Pairing
information is now memorized in the sound
bar.
* Passcode may be called PIN Code, Passkey,
PIN number or Password.
5
Start the Bluetooth connection from the
source device.
Some audio source devices may connect with
the sound bar automatically, otherwise follow
the instructions in the source device operating
manual to start connection.
6
Notes:
If this sound bar or the source device is turned
off before Bluetooth connection is completed,
pairing will not be completed and the pairing
information will not be memorized. Repeat
step 1 onwards to start pairing again.
To pair with other devices, repeat steps 1 - 5
for each device.
This sound bar can be paired to a maximum
of 8 devices. If subsequent device is paired,
the oldest device paired, will be deleted and
replaced with the new one.
Once a device is ousted or deleted from
the pairing list, the pairing information for
the device is also deleted. To listen to the
sound from the device again, it needs to be
re-paired. Perform steps 1 - 5 to pair the de-
vice again.
Passcode of this sound bar is xed to “0000”
and can only be paired with Bluetooth source
device whose passcode is also “0000”.
