ADDITIONAL COMMENTS

▼ Depressing any mute button on the SoundStation or the SoundStation EX (keypad or extended

microphone) will mute the wireless microphone as well.

▼ Talking into the wireless microphone will be heard by the far end party but will not be heard

through SoundStation’s speaker.

TROUBLE SHOOTING

If the Wireless Microphone is not working, check the following:

▼ Ensure that the Receiver is ON.

▼ Ensure that the Transmitter is ON.

▼ Check to see if the Low Battery LED (3) is illuminated on the Transmitter. If so, replace the

9 V battery.

▼ Ensure that the Signal LED (4) on the Receiver is illuminated. If the Signal LED is OFF, move

the Transmitter closer to the Receiver. If the Signal LED still does not turn ON, the Mute
Adjustment must be modified. To adjust the Mute, simply insert a small flathead screwdriver
into the Mute Adjustment socket and turn until the signal light turns ON.
