Bluetooth
What You Need
You can connect a wireless device with Bluetooth® to
this TV – a wireless speaker, a subwoofer, a sound
bar or headphones. You can also connect a wireless
gamepad with Bluetooth LE.
To play the TV sound on a wireless speaker, you must
pair the wireless speaker with the TV. You can pair
some wireless speakers and a maximum of 4
Bluetooth LE (low energy) devices. The TV can only
play the sound on one speaker at a time. If you
connect a subwoofer, the sound is played on the TV
and the subwoofer. If you connect a sound bar the
sound is played on the sound bar only.
Attention - Audio to Video syncronisation    
Many Bluetooth speaker systems have a high, so
called, 'latency'. High latency means that the audio
lags behind the video, causing unsynchronised 'lip
sync'. Before you purchase a wireless Bluetooth
speaker system, inform yourself about the newest
models and look for a device with a low latency
rating. Ask your dealer for advice.
