How do I set up the JBL 9.1 Soundbar for the first time?

Start by carefully unboxing all components, then place the soundbar below your TV, position the detachable speakers behind the listening area, and place the subwoofer on the floor near the soundbar. Connect the soundbar to your TV using HDMI (or optical if HDMI is unavailable), connect all components to power outlets, and turn them on. The detachable speakers will automatically pair with the soundbar when powered on.
