If irregular coloring occurs on your television
The front and center speakers are designed to be used close to a
television, but the picture may be affected with some televisions and
setup combinations.
If this occurs, turn the television off for about 30 minutes.
The demagnetizing function of the television should correct the problem.
If it persists, move the speakers further away from the television.

Avoiding interference
To avoid possible interference, do not place the wireless system near any of the following devices.
The wireless system uses the same radio frequencies as other devices that may be present in your home.
The wireless system will automatically seek a clear channel if any of these other devices interfere with its communication. When this happens, the
wireless link indicator (
“
[W]
”
) flashes on the main unit, and there is a brief interruption in audio coming from the surround speakers.
This is the normal operation of the product working to assure the best possible performance of your Home Theater System.
If the interference persists, try moving the other devices to another location outside the range of the wireless system.
