L
ike all wireless devices, your PSWi-8
M m
ay be susceptible
t
o RF interference from such sources as microwave ovens,
W
iFi computer systems, video game systems, cordless
t
elephones, blue tooth systems, baby monitors and other
devices. In particular, any devices operating in the 2.4GHz
band may cause intermittent wireless connections between
the PSWi-8
M. It is also possible that your PSWi-8M may affect
o
ther wireless systems. For the most part, you can avoid wire-
l
ess performance problems by physically separating these
d
evices from your PSWi-8
M.
Maintaining a distance of several
f
eet or more between your PSWi-8
M s
peaker and any wireless
device should prevent any mutual interference effects. If you do
notice any subwoofer signal dropouts take care to identify the
root cause (most commonly having other wireless devices too
c
lose) and resolve accordingly. Any interference effects from a
m
icrowave oven will cease once the oven stops operating and
m
ay be resolved on a long-term basis by increasing the physical
distance between your PSWi-8
Mand the microwave oven.
