**Warning: Wireless Limitation and Power Consumption
This subwoofer operates at 2.4G radio wave frequencies, and the unit is intended for use
within the same room as the signal source. Obstacles such as walls reduce the
effectiveness of the radiofrequencywireless transmission. Refer to troubleshooting
section to minimize interference. Despite advanced engineeringand technology
employed for minimal interference, the followingsources are known to interfere with
wireless transmission:
l 2.4G coreless phones when operating within 10 feet
l Microwaves when operating within 6 feet
l 2.4G Wiireless LAN network access-point when operating within 3 feet
Please keep adequate distance from interference sources to insure normal
operation. Subwoofer automaticallymutes when strong interference is detected.

l In a location exposed to the magnetic field, static electricityor equipment
that uses the same frequencyband (2.4GHz), such as Bluetooth device,
radio WirelessLAN device, cordless phones, or microwave oven.
If you live in a high-densityresidential area, your neighbor's microwave may
interfere with the signal quality.
Location of Subwoofer
Because human ear cannot tell the direction oflowfrequencysound, the

dependingon the environment. Use
within proper range.
Interference There maybe radio communication
equipment usingthe same frequency
band (2.4 GHz) such as Bluetooth
device, WiFi LAN, cordless phone, or
microwave oven. Make sure
transmitter and subwoofer units are
more than 3 feet awayfrom these
interference sources.
Audio Distortion Signal source input level is too
strong
Turn down volume of the signal source.
Signal source Input level too low
Turn up the volume of the input source.
Obstruction Obstruction such as metal structure,
object or human walkingthrough the
