A sound mode can be selected from among three sound modes for surround playback and one sound mode
for stereo playback.
STEREO
This sound mode provides stereo playback. This sound mode is best suited for music playback.

nPrecautions for remote control batteries
WARNING
(The remote control included with this product contains a coin/button cell battery. Do not ingest the coin/button battery. Keep
new and used batteries away from children. If the battery compartment does not close securely, keep it away from children. If
the coin/button cell battery is swallowed, it can cause severe chemical burns and dissolve tissues inside the body in less than 2
hours, and can lead to death. If you think batteries might have been swallowed or placed inside any part of the body, seek
immediate medical attention.
(Do not dispose of a battery in fire. Do not expose a battery to high temperatures, such as direct sunlight or a fire. Do not attempt
to charge the battery installed in the included remote control. The battery could burst or leak, causing a fire or injury.
(Do not disassemble a battery. If the battery leaks, avoid contact with the leaked fluid. If the contents of the battery get on your
hands or in your eyes, it can cause blindness or chemical burns. If the battery fluid should come in contact with your eyes,
mouth, or skin, wash immediately with water and consult a doctor.
CAUTION
(Do not use a battery other than the specified one. Doing so may cause fire or burns, or result in fluid leakage that may cause
skin inflammation.
(Always make sure the battery is inserted in conformity with the +/- polarity markings. Failure to do so might result in a fire,
burns, or inflammation due to fluid leaks.
(When the battery runs out, or if the sound bar is not to be used for a long time, remove the battery from the remote control to
prevent possible leakage of the battery fluid.
(Do not put in a pocket or bag, carry, or store batteries together with pieces of metal. The battery could short, burst, or leak,
causing a fire or injury.
(When storing or discarding batteries, insulate the terminal area by applying tape, or some other protection. Mixing them with
other batteries or metal objects can cause a fire, burns, or inflammation due to fluid.
When the battery runs out, the sound bar can no longer be controlled with the remote control. Replace the
battery with a new one.
