OWNER’S MANUAL

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Verify Line Voltage Before Use

The JBL LINK BAR (soundbar) has been designed for use with

100-240 volt, 50/60 Hz AC current. Connection to a line voltage

other than that for which your product is intended can create a

safety and re hazard and may damage the unit. If you have any

questions about the voltage requirements for your specic model

or about the line voltage in your area, contact your selling dealer

before plugging the unit into a wall outlet.

Do Not Use Extension Cords

To avoid safety hazards, use only the power cord supplied

with your unit. We do not recommend that extension cords be

used with this product. As with all electrical devices, do not run

power cords under rugs or carpets, or place heavy objects on

them. Damaged power cords should be replaced immediately

by an authorized service center with a cord that meets factory

specications.

Handle the AC Power Cord Gently

When disconnecting the power cord from an AC outlet, always

pull the plug; never pull the cord. If you do not intend to use this

speaker for any considerable length of time, disconnect the plug

from the AC outlet.

Do Not Open the Cabinet

There are no user-serviceable components inside this product.

Opening the cabinet may present a shock hazard, and any

modication to the product will void your warranty. If water

accidentally falls inside the unit, disconnect it from the AC power

source immediately, and consult an authorized service center.
