8 Troubleshooting

Warning

Never remove the casing of this apparatus.

To keep the warranty valid, never try to repair

the system yourself.

If you encounter problems when using this

apparatus, check the following points before

requesting service. If the problem remains

unsolved, go to the Philips web site (www.

philips.com/welcome). When you contact

Philips, ensure that the apparatus is nearby

and the model number and serial number are

available.
No power

• Make sure that the AC power plug of the

device is connected properly.

• Make sure that there is power at the AC

outlet.

• Check whether the device is in Eco

standby mode.

No sound

• Check whether the device is muted. The

power/status indicator flashes white when

the device is muted. Adjust volume on

the Philips AirStudio app or on AW5000

directly.

• If you have chosen the wired connection,

check whether the Ethernet cable has

been connected properly and securely.

• Check the Wi-Fi network connection.

Set up the network again if needed (see

'Connect AW5000 to your home Wi-Fi

network' on page 9).

• If the audio source is an external audio

player, adjust volume on the audio player

directly.

No response from the device

• Restart AW5000, and then set up the Wi-

Fi network for AW5000 again.

• Disconnect and reconnect the AC power

plug, and then switch on the device again.

Wi-Fi network connection failed

• This device does not support the WPS-

PIN method.

• Enable SSID broadcast on the Wi-Fi router.

• Keep away from potential sources of

interference which may affect Wi-Fi signal,

such as microwave ovens.

• Make sure that the SSID name of your

home router consists of alphanumeric

characters, with no space or special

characters like %/#/*/# inserted. The

network password should not consist of

#/:/;/'.

• If you choose to rename your AW5000

manually on the Philips AirStudio app, do

not use special characters or symbols.

• For some new types of Wi-Fi routers, a

network name (SSID) may be created

automatically when you use WPS for

connection. Always change the default

network name (SSID) to a simple one that

consists of alphanumerical characters, and

also change the Wi-Fi security mode to

secure your network.

Wired network connection failed

• If you have tried wireless connection,

before setup of wired connection, you

need to reset the wireless Hi-Fi speaker.

Follow the procedures below to reset the

device:

1

Unplug the power cord.

2

Hold the numeric key 1 and plug the

power cord again.

»

The power/status indicator flashes

amber, then turns solid amber, and after

a while starts to flash amber again.

3

Release the numeric key 1.

Note

Do not release the numeric key 1 until the power/

status indicator flashes amber for a second time.
