Warning!

Never try to repair the system yourself as this will invalidate the warranty. Do not open the

system as there is a risk of electric shock.

If a fault occurs, first check the points listed below before taking the system for repair. If you are

unable to resolve a problem by following these hints, consult your dealer or Philips for help.

Problem

I get interference on my

wireless (Wi-Fi) link between

the Center and Station/PC.

The WAC3500 operates in the

2.4GHz radio frequency spectrum.

Many other household / IT devices

also operate in this frequency

spectrum, for example: microwave

ovens, DECT phones, Bluetooth

devices such as headphones,

computer mouses, wireless routers,

cordless phones,Wi-Fi compatible

printers, PDAs.

These devices can interfere with the

Wi-Fi link between the Center and

your PC, resulting in interference

such as pause during playback, slow

response to your operation, etc.The

severity of interference varies

depending on the extent of

radiation from the device and the

strength of Wi-Fi signals in that

position.

I accidentally pulled the speaker

wires out of the clip.

Troubleshooting

Solution

If you are playing the set, stop playback and take the

appropriate measures as follows:

• Keep the Center at least 3 meters away from such devices.

• Use the WEP/WPA/WPA2 key when connecting the

Center to an existing wireless PC network.To set WEP /

WPA / WPA2 key, connect Center to your PC using Philips

Wireless Audio Device Manager (WADM) in the by-packed

PC Suite CD. In the Device Configuration of WADM, enter

the Wireless Network submenu. In the Device Wireless

Authentication Type, select WEP or WPA / WPA2.

• Change the operating channel of the Center when

connecting it to an existing wireless PC network.To

change channels, connect the Center to your PC using

Philips Wireless Audio Device Manager (WADM) in the by-

packed PC Suite CD. In the Device Configuration of

WADM, enter the SSID of your Wireless Network and

select Ad-hoc mode. See Connect to your PC in this

manual and the WADM help file.

• If possible, change the operating channels of the other Wi-

Fi devices in your home.

• Turn the devices in different directions to minimize

interference.

Follow the illustrations below to reinsert the speaker wires

(gold wire to the hole marked '+' and silver wire to the

other hole).
