Understanding
Your
Wireless
Range
Your Korus speaker operates over a high quality
wireless connection using the SKAA
rM wireless
audio standard.
To
ensure optimal wireless range
and performance, please note the following
when using your Baton:
• Do not hold the Baton directly but rather hold
your mobile device.
• Avoid placing your mobile device with Baton
in
a tight pocket.
• The orientation
of
your Korus speaker may
impact the wireless operating range.
• A room with dense WiFi traffic from many
wireless devices like routers and/or computers
could reduce the wireless range.
8 Korus V400 and V600 Series Wireless Speaker Owner's Manual
The typical operating range for a mobile Baton
will be 65 feet
(20

ing range for the USB Baton will be 98 feet

Positioning
Your
Speaker
Correctly
The Korus speaker fills the room with a deep
bass sound so you receive the maximum stereo
experience.
We
recommend placing your speaker 2 inches
(5
em) from a wall or corner
to
allow the sound
to
reflect. This also achieves proper speaker
ventilation.
Tip: Use the built-in handle
to
manage any
excess power cord.
