Wireless system
To avoid interference, maintain the following distances between the wireless system and other electronic devices that use the same radio frequency (2.4 GHz band).
The wireless system will automatically seek a clear channel if any of these other devices interfere with its communication. When this happens, 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 or move the wireless system nearer to the main unit.
