Control your soundbar using your Samsung TV remote

Setting up your TV’s audio output will allow you to control the soundbar’s volume using your remote. Once the output is set up, you can then choose to connect either a digital optical cable or an HDMI cable to the soundbar. After you do that, you'll be able to use one remote for both your TV and soundbar.

By default, Samsung TV remotes should be able to control Samsung soundbars. If it isn't working, be sure the soundbar is powered on, and then press and hold the WOOFER button up until "ON - TV REMOTE" appears on the display (about 5 seconds). Next, you'll need to choose between connecting with an optical cable or an HDMI cable.

Note: If your remote does not have the WOOFER button, check your user manual for how to turn on the TV Remote function.

If you decided to use a digital optical cable, activate the Auto Power Link feature which will automatically turn the soundbar on or off with your TV.

The soundbar will turn on and off when the TV is turned on and off. Make sure you also set the audio output on the TV.

Note: Auto Power Link only works with an optical connection and is turned on by default.

If you decided to use an HDMI cable, activate the Anynet+ feature which automatically turns the soundbar on or off with your TV.

The soundbar will turn on and off when the TV is turned on and off. Make sure you also set the audio output on the TV.

If you are having trouble with your remote for your TV or your soundbar and neither seems to be responding, you can try these steps to try and get your remote working again.

If the remote for your Samsung soundbar gets lost and you need to replace it, you can get a new one at the Samsung Parts website. Just enter the model of your soundbar to find the correct remote.
