To turn on the speaker bar:
• The speaker bar is always on. If you connected the
speaker bar by following the instructions in “Setting up
the optional speaker bar” on page 19, the speaker bar
receives power constantly from the monitor’s speaker
bar power connector.

You can also right-click on your Windows desktop, then click

on, the speaker bar will not initialize and will not work correctly. If this happens,
turn the monitor off, then back on to enable the speaker bar.
