Like all wireless devices, your SurroundBar 6500 BT 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 6500 BT speaker and the subwoofer. It is also possible that your
SurroundBar 6500 BT System may affect other wireless systems. For the
most part, you can avoid wireless performance problems by physically
separating these devices from your SurroundBar 6500 BT System.
Maintaining a distance of several feet or more between your SurroundBar 6500
BT 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 6500 BT
and the microwave oven.
