• Miljø: Keep the Playbar away from direct sunlight, heat sources, and areas with high humidity or extreme temperatures.
• Kabler: Periodically check all cable connections (power and optical) to ensure they are secure.

7. Fejlfinding

If you encounter issues with your Sonos Playbar, refer to the following common troubleshooting steps:

7.1 No Sound from Playbar

• Tjek strøm: Ensure the Playbar is plugged in and the power indicator light is on.
• Optisk kabel: Verify that the optical cable is securely connected to both the Playbar and your TV.
• Indstillinger for tv-lydudgang: Access your TV's audio settings menu. Ensure the audio output is set to "Optical" or "External Speakers" and that the format is compatible (e.g., PCM Stereo or Dolby Digital 5.1). Some TVs may require specific settings to output Dolby Digital 5.1 via optical.
• Sonos app: Check the Sonos app to ensure the Playbar is selected as the audio output and that the volume is not muted or set too low.

7.2 Connectivity Issues (Wi-Fi)

• Router: Sørg for, at din Wi-Fi-router er tændt og fungerer korrekt.
• Afstand: The Playbar should be within a reasonable range of your Wi-Fi router or a Sonos Bridge/Boost if you are using one.
• Interferens: Move the Playbar away from other electronic devices that might cause wireless interference (e.g., cordless phones, microwaves).
• Genstart: Try restarting your router, then the Playbar (unplug from power for 10 seconds, then plug back in).

7.3 Dolby Digital 5.1 Passthrough

Some TV models may not pass through Dolby Digital 5.1 audio directly from HDMI inputs to the optical output, often converting it to stereo (PCM) or Dolby Pro Logic. The Sonos Playbar requires a Dolby Digital 5.1 signal for true surround sound. If your Sonos app shows "Audio Input: Stereo" when playing 5.1 content:

• Tv -indstillinger: Check your TV's audio output settings for options related to digital audio format (e.g., Bitstream, Dolby Digital).
• Direkte forbindelse: Consider connecting your source device (e.g., Amazon Fire TV, Blu-ray player) directly to the Playbar's optical input if your TV does not properly pass through the 5.1 signal. This may require manual switching of the optical cable or an external optical switch.
