2. Use the cHAnnel switch on the back of the wireless transmitter to select “1”, “2”, “3”, or “4” as the
broadcast channel.

Wireless Broadcast Considerations
All wireless devices like the Wic-10 may be susceptible to radio frequency (RF) interference from other devices.
Other RF devices include WiFi Internet access, computer equipment and routers; WiFi solar panel monitoring
systems; video game consoles, cordless telephones, blue tooth devices, baby monitors and microwave ovens.
In particular, any devices operating in the 2.4 GHz band may cause intermittent wireless connections between
the wireless transmitter and subwoofer.
To prevent wireless broadcast interference problems, keep wireless devices at least 2’ apart. Any interference
effects from a microwave oven will cease once the oven stops operating and may be resolved on a long-term
basis by increasing the physical distance between the subwoofer and the microwave oven.
If the Wic-10 sound is intermittent, check that another wireless device isn’t within 2’ of either the wireless
transmitter or the subwoofer.
