1. Placing/wall-mounting the soundbar: The soundbar is designed to be placed
on a flat surface directly in front of your TV on its two supplied feet, on a shelf
directly above or below your TV in a piece of furniture with feet or wall-mounted
(via keyholes on the rear of the soundbar) under a TV that is also wall-mounted. If
wall-mounting, connect cable to TV first, then use supplied wall-mount template
to mount soundbar. If the two mounting holes drill into wall studs, screw two wood
screws in those holes to hang the soundbar on. If there are no wall studs where the
holes are drilled, use wall anchors that support at least 7 pounds (3.18kg) to hang
the soundbar on. Connect cable from TV (see Connection section) to soundbar and
hang soundbar on wall.

2. Placing the subwoofer: The subwoofer is designed to be placed on the floor in the
same room within 50 feet (15.24m) of the soundbar near an electrical outlet. For
maximum bass output, place the subwoofer in a corner on the same wall as the TV
and soundbar. Once the soundbar has been connected to the TV and plugged into a
wall outlet, plug the subwoofer into a wall outlet.
ConneCtIon
1. Connecting the soundbar to your tV: The soundbar part of your Kipsch Icon
system is what needs to be connected to your TV, Cable Box or Satellite Receiver. If
you have other devices connected to your TV, such as a DVD /BluRay player, gaming
system, etc., connect the soundbar to the TV so that you can listen to all those and
your TV through the soundbar. If there are no other devices connected to your TV
other than a cable or satellite box and you receive all of your television programs from
that box, you can connect the soundbar to either that box or your TV. There are three
different ways to connect the soundbar to your TV, Satellite or Cable box.
a. Digital optical Cable
Most High Definition TV's, Satellite and Cable boxes have an DIGITAL OPTICAL AUDIO
OUTPUT. First, remove the clear plastic covers from each end of the digital optical cable
and connect one end of an optical cable (cable supplied) into the corresponding output
of your TV, Satellite or Cable box and connect the other end of the cable into the DIGITAL
OPTICAL INPUT on the back panel of the soundbar.

If you do not have an optical digital output, you can use analog left and right audio
outputs on your device and connect them to the analog left and right inputs on the
soundbar with the a male RCA to male RCA cable (cable supplied).

C. 3.5mm output (headphone Jack)
A third choice would be to connect from a headphone output on your device to the
analog left and right inputs on the soundbar (cable not supplied).
once you have made any of the above audio cable connections, connect the
supplied soundbar power supply into the "DC Input" on the back of the soundbar,
plug the power supply into an active electrical socket and turn the main power
Switch on the back of the soundbar on.

2. Connecting the subwoofer to the soundbar: Once you have placed the subwoofer
in the room, take the supplied subwoofer power cord, plug one end into the sub-
woofer where it is labeled "AC In" and plug the other end into an active electrical
socket. Turn the Main Power Switch on the back of the subwoofer on. On the sound-
bar, make sure the left status light is either solid green or orange (press SOURCE
button once if light is steady red). The red light on the back of the subwoofer will
stay solid until it finds the wireless signal coming from the soundbar. Once it finds
that signal (approximately 15 seconds), the solid red light will change to solid blue,
indicating the subwoofer is now connected to the soundbar.
