Product Setup & Troubleshooting

The following setup steps are standard for most Larksound models:

• Bluetooth: Switch the input to "BT" mode. Search for the model name (e.g., "Lark L220") on your device and pair. Manualslib
• HDMI ARC: Connect the soundbar's ARC port to the TV's HDMI ARC port using a high-speed cable; set the TV output to PCM.
• Optical/AUX: Use the INPUT button to switch to "OPT" or "AUX". Always ensure the TV's digital audio format is set to PCM to avoid "no sound" issues. Manualslib
• Troubleshooting: If the remote fails, check the battery tab; for detachable models, ensure the connecting cable between the two units is securely plugged in. Manuals
