A Note Regarding Wireless Performance - problems

Page 13 highlights

A Note Regarding Wireless Performance: Like all wireless devices, your SurroundBar 5000 IHT may be susceptible to RF interference from such sources as microwave ovens, WiFi computer systems, video game systems, cordless telephones, blue tooth systems, baby monitors and other devices. In particular, any devices operating in the 2.4GHz band may cause intermittent wireless connections between the SurroundBar 5000 speaker and the subwoofer. It is also possible that your SurroundBar 5000 IHT System may affect other wireless systems. For the most part, you can avoid wireless performance problems by physically separating these devices from your SurroundBar 5000 IHT System. Maintaining a distance of several feet or more between your SurroundBar 5000 IHT speaker and any wireless device should prevent any mutual interference effects. If you do notice any subwoofer signal dropouts take care to identify the root cause (most commonly having other wireless devices too close) and resolve accordingly. 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 your SurroundBar 5000 IHT System and the microwave oven. WARNING: LISTEN CAREFULLY Polk Audio loudspeakers and subwoofers are capable of playing at extremely high volume levels, which could cause serious or permanent hearing damage. Polk Audio, Inc. accepts no liability for hearing loss, bodily injury or property damage resulting from the misuse of its products. Keep these guidelines in mind and always use your own good judgment when controlling volume: • You should limit prolonged exposure to volumes that exceed 85 decibels(dB).
