The TV remote control does not work when I put the Sound Bar or Home Theater System on the TV stand.

Can I put a Sound Bar or Home Theater System on the TV stand?

    If you are going to place the Sound Bar or Home Theater System on the TV stand, make sure the TV screen or the receiving area of the remote control are not obstructed.

    Note: If the Sound Bar or Home Theater System supports an IR repeater function, you can avoid this issue by sending the remote signal from the rear of the Sound Bar or Home Theater System. Refer to the product manual to see if your Sound Bar or Home Theater System has the IR repeater function, or to see how to turn on the IR repeater function.

    We recommend that before making a purchase, refer to the support website for specifications and dimensions of each product to examine the feasibility of placing a Sound Bar or Home Theater System on the TV stand.
