Crossover Knob: this knob adjusts the subwoofers crossover between 50hz and 150hz.  
the higher you set the crossover knob, the higher in frequency the subwoofer will operate  
and the more its bass will overlapthat of the soundbar. this adjustment helps achieve  
a smooth transition of bass frequencies between the subwoofer and the soundbar for a  
variety of different rooms and subwoofer locations. see Subwoofer Crossover Knob, on  
page 10, for more information.  
AC Fuse: the sb 15/230 sub is factory-equipped with a t1al/250V 1a – 250V ac fuse.  
If the fuse ever blows:  
1. unplug the power cord from the wall.  
2. use a screwdriver to remove the blown fuse.  
3. replace the fuse with an identical t1al/250V 1a – 250V ac fuse.  
Volume Knob: use this control to balance the subwoofers volume with that of the soundbar.  
turn the knob clockwise to increase the subwoofers volume; turn it counterclockwise to  
decrease the subwoofers volume.  
CAUTION: FOR CONTINUED PROTECTION AGAINST FIRE, REPLACE THE FUSE ONLY  
WITH THE SAME TYPE AND RATING.  
Power Cord: plug this cord into an active, unswitched ac outlet. see Power Connections,  
on page 8, for more information.  
Phase Switch: this switch determines whether the subwoofer drivers piston-like action  
moves in and out in phase with the speakers in the soundbar. If the subwoofer were to  
play out of phase with the soundbar speakers, the sound waves from the soundbar could  
cancel out some of the sound waves from the subwoofers, reducing bass performance  
and sonic impact. this phenomenon depends in part on the placement of the subwoofer  
and soundbar relative to each other in the room. see Subwoofer Phase Switch, on  
page 10, for more information.  
Power Switch: set this switch to the on position to activate the subwoofer. In normal  
operation, this switch will be left in the on position. see Turning the Subwoofer On and  
Off, on page 9, for more information.

Speaker Placement  
4. attach the two wall-mount brackets to the wall at the locations you marked, using  
hardware that is appropriate for the walls construction and materials. note that the  
soundbar weighs 3.6kg (8 lb). be sure to use hardware that can support this weight.  
Speaker Placement  
Placing the Soundbar on a Table  
If your tV is placed on a table, you can place the soundbar on the table directly in front of  
the tV stand, centered with the tV screen.attach the supplied rubber feet to the soundbar  
as shown in the illustration.  
5. after making all of the connections described in the Connections section, on page 7,  
attach the soundbar to the brackets by sliding the slots in its feet onto the brackets’  
vertical tabs.  
as long as the tables surface is flat, the soundbar will rest on the rubber feet.  
Wall-Mounting the Soundbar  
If your tV is attached to a wall, you can use the included wall-mount brackets to mount  
the soundbar on the wall directly below the tV screen.  
1. determine the location for the soundbar on the wall. make sure that the top of the  
soundbar will not block your view of the tV screen when it is mounted on the wall.  
slide slots in soundbar Feet  
onto tabs on brackets  
2. mark the locations of the soundbar wall-mount bracket holes on the wall. the holes  
for the left and right brackets are spaced 600mm apart and are designed to accept  
#8 screws. the top and bottom holes for each bracket are spaced 25mm apart. see  
the illustration below.  
Placing the Subwoofer  
since our ears do not hear directional sound at the low frequencies where the subwoofer  
operates, it will perform well from just about any location in your room. however, the  
strongest bass reproduction is likely to be heard when the subwoofer is placed in a corner  
along the same wall as the soundbar.  
25mm  
600mm  
IMPORTANT: Make sure that the subwoofer’s rear panel is at least 150mm (6") from  
the wall to allow proper operation of its port tube opening.  
NOTE: to ensure that the soundbar will be level, use a carpenters level, laser sight or other  
device to ensure that the two sets of holes are at exactly the same height.

you can experiment with subwoofer placement by temporarily placing the subwoofer in  
the listening position and playing music with strong bass content. move around to various  
locations in the room while the system is playing and listen until you find the location  
where the bass performance is best. place the subwoofer in that location.  
IMPORTANT: The maximum wireless operating distance between the soundbar and  
subwoofer is approximately 15.3m (50 feet).

Source Connections  
Analog: use the supplied stereo audio cable to connect the soundbars source 1 (analog)  
input to your tV’s stereo audio output. If your tV has two sets of audio output jacks, use  
the set that has a fixed (not variable) output level. this will let you turn your tV’s speakers  
all the way off while the tV still supplies a constant audio signal to the soundbar.  
Digital: If your dVd player, cable tuner or satellite tuner have coaxial or optical digital outputs,  
you can use the supplied optical digital audio cable and a coaxial digital audio cable (not  
supplied) to connect them to the soundbars optical and coaxial digital inputs.  
NOTE: If your dVd player, cable tuner or satellite tuner does not have a coaxial digital  
output, you can connect its analog audio output to your tV.the tV will send its audio signal  
to the soundbar through the analog connection described above.

For the best sound, we recommend turning your tV’s built-in speakers off. consult your  
tV’s owners 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 sb 16/230 system will always supply  
most of the sound:

this way, your sb 16/230 system should always be louder than your tV’s speakers. note:  
this may reduce the volume of your tV’s output connection, so you may have to set the  
soundbars trim switch to position 3 to compensate. see Soundbar Trim Switch, on page 10.  
Muting the System  
momentarily press the soundbars power button to mute the system. (the power Indicator  
flashes blue.) momentarily press the power button again to un-mute the system. (the  
power Indicator turns to a steady blue.)  
To put the soundbar into Standby manually, hold the Power button for at least three  
seconds.

NOTE: If you put the soundbar into Standby manually, you can turn it back on only  
by manually pressing the Power button again.  
Auto turn-on: the soundbar has a signal detector that will automatically turn the unit on  
when it senses an audio signal at any of its inputs. to minimize power consumption, the  
signal detector is not activated unless the soundbar first senses any kind of Ir remote  
signal. this does not have to be a remote code that has been learned by the soundbar  
(see Programming the Soundbar to Respond to Your TV Remote, on page 11) – turning  
your tV on or changing its volume via its remote will be enough.  
Soundbar Surround Mode Button  
this button switches the sound between normal stereo (the surround mode Indicator  
turns white) and 3d surround (the surround mode Indicator turns blue). the 3d surround  
setting will produce a complete surround-sound experience for anyone sitting in front of  
and several feet away from the soundbar.although it is particularly effective when watching  
movies, you can also try the 3d surround setting for music.  
once the soundbars signal detector has been activated, the unit will automatically  
turn from standby to on as soon as it detects an input signal at any of its source input  
connections.  
Auto turn-off: the soundbar will automatically enter the standby mode if no audio signal  
is detected at any of its source input connections for approximately 15 minutes. If you  
have programmed the soundbar to respond to your tV remotes on and off commands,  
you can manually put the soundbar into the standby mode without having to hold its  
power button for three seconds. see Programming the Soundbar to Respond to Your TV  
Remote, on page 11.

Operation  
Subwoofer Volume Knob  
Subwoofer Crossover Knob  
use the subwoofers Volume knob to balance the bass with the rest of the sound. play music  
or movies that you are familiar with and adjust the subwoofers Volume knob so the bass  
sounds balanced on both music and films. listen to several different music recordings  
and film soundtracks that contain strong bass passages, and find a setting for the Volume  
knob that doesnt over-emphasize the bass or make it sound weak.  
the subwoofers crossover knob adjusts the subwoofers crossover between 50hz and  
150hz.the higher you set the crossover knob, the higher in frequency the subwoofer will  
operate and the more its bass will overlapthat of the soundbar. this adjustment helps  
achieve a smooth transition of bass frequencies between the subwoofer and the soundbar  
for a variety of different rooms and subwoofer locations.  
crossover knob  
Volume Knob  
once you find a setting for the subwoofers Volume knob that balances the bass with the  
rest of the sound, you shouldnt have to change it.  
to set the crossover knob, listen for the smoothness of the bass. If the bass seems too  
strong at certain frequencies, try a lower crossover knob setting. If the bass seems too  
weak at certain frequencies, try a higher crossover knob setting.  
Soundbar Trim Switch  
Subwoofer Phase Switch  
this switch adjusts the soundbars audio input sensitivity so it will work with tVs that have  
different audio signal output levels. If your tV’s audio signal output is low, the soundbar  
may not play loud enough. In this case, set the trim switch to position 3 so the soundbar  
will play louder. If your tV’s audio signal output is high, you may hear distortion in the  
soundbar at normal listening volumes. In this case, set the trim switch to position 1 to  
reduce the distortion and improve the sound.  
this switch determines whether the subwoofers piston-like action moves in and out  
in phase with the speakers in the soundbar. If the subwoofer were to play out of phase  
with the soundbar speakers, some of the sound waves produced by the soundbar and  
subwoofer could be canceled out at some frequencies, reducing bass performance and  
sonic impact. this phenomenon depends in part on the relative placement of all the  
speakers in the room.  
phase knob  
Trim Switch  
although there is no absolutely correct setting for the phase switch, in most cases it should  
be left in the position. when the subwoofer is properly in phase with the soundbar  
speakers, the sound will be clearer and have more impact. this will make percussive  
sounds like drums, piano and plucked strings sound more lifelike. the best way to set  
the phase switch is to listen to music that you are familiar with and adjust the switch so  
that drums and other percussive sounds have maximum impact.  
Wireless Code Switches  
In the unlikely event that you encounter interference when operating the system, or if  
you have more than one sb 16/230 system in operation, you may change the wireless  
channel at which the system operates. there are four-position wireless code switches  
on both the soundbar and subwoofer. to change the wireless channel, simply set each  
of the switches to one of the other three positions. IMPORTANT: The switches on the  
soundbar and the subwoofer must be set to the same position for the wireless  
system to work properly.

soundbars power button until the surround and source buttons switch to constant  
illumination. then proceed to step 4.  
Programming the Soundbar to Respond  
to Your TV Remote  
you can program the soundbar so it will respond to your tV remotes power off, mute, volume  
up, volume down and source commands. this programming lets you control your whole  
home theater system with a single remote. before beginning to program the soundbar,  
have your tV remote in hand. we recommend sitting down in front of the soundbar.  
To erase all remote programming: ensure that the soundbar is on, then simultaneously  
press and hold the soundbars surround mode and Volume up buttons until the lights in  
all the buttons flash.  
note: some steps will time out, so read through this entire procedure before you begin.  
have the remote handy. when you start the remote programming after step 4, be ready  
to aim the tV remote at the front of the soundbar from about 300mm – 900mm (about  
12 – 36 inches) away.

To program the power off, surround, volume down, volume up or source  
command:  
1. ensure that the soundbar is on.  
2. simultaneously press and hold the soundbars power and source buttons until the  
visible surround button flashes blue (the power and source buttons also flash but are  
covered by your fingers). If the buttons do not flash after three seconds, release the  
buttons and try again.  
hold down both buttons until the  
power, surround and source  
buttons indicators flash  
3. You now have 20 seconds to momentarily press the soundbar button that you want  
to program (power, surround, Volume down, Volume up, source), or the programming  
operation will fail and you must restart at step 2. when you are successful, the soundbar  
power button light will turn off.  
momentarily press the button

Troubleshooting  
Troubleshooting  
If your sb 16/230 system isnt performing the way you think it should, check  
to see if the problem is covered in this section before calling your dealer or  
contacting a harman kardon representative.  
Problem  
Solution  
If the soundbar does not turn on:  
check that the soundbar power supplys ac cord is plugged into a working ac  
outlet and that the power supply is plugged into the soundbar.  
check that the soundbars power switch is in the on position.  
If the subwoofer does not turn on:  
check that the subwoofers power cord is plugged into a working ac outlet.  
check that the subwoofers power switch is in the on position.  
check if the subwoofers ac fuse has blown. see Subwoofer Rear-Panel Controls:  
AC Fuse, on page 5, for instructions on checking and changing the fuse.  
If there is no sound coming from both the soundbar and the subwoofer:  
check that the soundbar is on (the power Indicator is blue).  
check that the cable connecting the tV or other source component to the  
soundbar is properly connected at both ends.  
check that the soundbars source selector is set to the correct source (the source  
Indicator turns white for source 1 – analog and turns blue for source 2 – digital)  
and that the source is playing an audio signal.  
check that the system is not muted (when the system is muted, the soundbars  
power Indicator flashes blue). If the system is muted, momentarily press the  
power button to un-mute the system.  
check that the soundbars volume is not turned all the way down (the lowest  
setting of the Volume down button will mute the system).  
If there is no sound coming from just the subwoofer:  
check that the subwoofer Volume control is not turned all the way down (fully  
counterclockwise).  
check that the wireless code switches on the subwoofer and soundbar are both  
set to the same setting number.  
move the subwoofer closer to the soundbar. the maximum wireless operation  
distance is 50 feet (15.3m).  
If the soundbars sound is distorted:  
set the soundbars trim switch to a lower setting.  
check the source component to see if the distortion is coming from it, and not  
from the soundbar.  
If the systems sound is too quiet, even when the soundbars volume  
is turned all the way up:  
set the soundbars trim switch to a higher setting.  
If the tV or source component is connected via a variable output, check its  
instructions to be sure that the output is not turned down too low.  
If the bass output is not loud enough:  
turn up the subwoofers Volume knob.  
move the subwoofer into a corner of the room.  
move the subwoofer closer to the seating location.  
If the soundbar wont learn your tV remotes commands:  
carefully follow steps 1 – 4 of Programming the Soundbar to Respond to Your TV  
Remote, on page 11.  
hold the tV remote 12 inches (300mm) in front of the soundbar during the  
learning procedure.  
although the soundbar will learn commands from most tV remotes, there may be  
some Ir codes that it cannot learn.  
If you press your tV remotes power button and the soundbar turns off when the  
tV turns on (or vice versa):  
press the power button on either the soundbar or the tV (but not both) one time.  
this will put them back in sync so they will turn on and off together when you  
press the tV remotes power button.
