which you connected the MP3 Receiver, i.e. CD,

video, auxiliary, etc.

enjoying your MP3’s wirelessly.

6. Trouble Shooting:

Problem #1: No Sound

1. Review the installation instructions (section 5) to

make sure everything is properly connected.

2. Make sure the power LED is illuminated on both the

Transmitter and Receiver.

3. Make sure the proper input is selected on your stereo

equipment that corresponds with the input jacks to

which you connected the MP3 Receiver.

4. Check all volume control settings on stereo

equipment, master volume control on computer, and

volume control in music playback software. The

volume settings must be at an audible level in all

possible locations before you will hear music.

Problem #2: Poor Sound Quality

1. Your music is being transmitted wirelessly using radio

frequency (RF) technology. Much like an FM

antenna, you may need to adjust the position of the

Transmitter and Receiver to maximize sound quality:

a. All computer and stereo equipment

generates electromagnetic interference.

Make sure both Transmitter and Receiver

are positioned at least 5 feet away from

all other equipment.

b. The Wireless MP3 Transmitter has a

maximum range of up to 100 feet line of

sight, but the range will vary depending

on environmental factors. Each wall you

transmit through cuts the range in half

(brick or concrete walls will reduce range

more than sheet rock or wood). Position

the Transmitter and Receiver closer

together to improve sound quality.

c. Position the Transmitter and Receiver to

the highest possible locations.
