IMPORTANT!

Before you decide where and how to place your Center and Station, try the following rear connections and Wi-Fi connection to find a suitable location.

Keep your Center and Station away from the source of interference (microwave ovens, DECT phones, bluetooth devices, cordless phones, other Wi-Fi products, etc.)

Avoid placing your Center or Station close to the plasma TV. It may result in improper display on your Center’s 2-way remote control.

Keep Stations adequately apart or in different angles (e.g. in different rooms blocked by one wall). Within a distance and angle (e.g. in the same room), your Center’s remote control is powerful enough to simultaneously operate several Stations, which may also result in improper display on the 2-way remote control.
