Cause and solution:

• When using battery power, make sure the batteries are fresh and replace if

necessary.

• Check that the speaker power/tuning indicator light (A) is illuminated

green.

• Check that the transmitter audio level indicator light is flickering

intermittently. If the light is not intermittent and you know you are using a
fixed level audio source, play music on your audio source while adjusting
the input level control on the back of the transmitter. Adjust the level
control until the light begins to blink intermittently again.

or
• If the transmitter is connected to a variable output, make sure the output

level control wheel is turned all the way UP, and adjust the volume
on the audio source up or down as necessary to make the light flicker
intermittently.

• Change the position of the channel select switch (1, 2 or 3) to change the

operating frequency. The speaker will detect the loss of signal and retune
automatically. However, you can also press the Power/tuning/volume
up once to make the speaker retune.

• Change the location of the transmitter. Place it as high and away from

obstructions as possible. Avoid placing the transmitter directly on top of or
behind a TV.

• Move the transmitter and speaker closer together. Sending the signal

through certain materials, such as glass, tile, and metal, can decrease the
effective transmitting distance of the system.

which may not have been active.
