Set it up
PLAYBASE is compatible with Sonos software versions 7.2 and later. If you are adding the PLAYBASE to an
existing Sonos system, be sure to check for software updates before adding the PLAYBASE.
1. Carefully unpack the box.
2. Choose a location for the PLAYBASE (refer to the TV placement guidelines for help).
3. Remove the protective cap from each end of the optical audio cable.
4. Connect the optical audio cable (supplied) from your TV’s digital audio out (optical) to the PLAYBASE’s
digital audio in (optical) being careful not to twist or bend the cable. The PLAYBASE digital audio in and
the optical cable are ’D-shaped’—make sure they align for proper insertion.

into the PLAYBASE.
The status indicator light on top will begin to flash.

you want them and plug them in.
