Polk Audio 440wi Dswprowi Remote Control, What is That Blinking Blue LIGHT?, Led, Volume Settings

DSWPROWI REMOTE CONTROL	IR Receiver
Wreless ready subwoofers come with a
credit card sized remote control. All com-
mands are sent to the subwoofer via IR
control. The IR receiver is located on the
front of the subwoofer when the subwoofer
is in its downward firing configuration.

The remote control has the following features:

•Power

• Volume

• 4 Button Phase Control

(0, 90, 180 and 270 degree settings)

• 4 Button

Polk Room Optimizer (PRO) presets

• Mute function

•Night function allows you to hear low-level bass detail at lower volumes. If you have the volume at 30 and press “night,“ the volume is reduced by 50%, in this example to 15. Pressing “night“ a second time restores the volume to its original setting.

Pressing Volume+ (or Volume-) incrementally increases (or decreases) the volume in the normal manner and takes the subwoofer out of “night“ mode. Also, the LED shines at a reduced intensity when the subwoofer is in “night“ mode.

•Reset button restores the woofer’s settings to factory presets. Hold down for two (2) seconds.

•LED turns LED On/Off. The amplifier remains active.

Important: To activate the remote control for the first time, remove the plastic tab.
