If you encounter problems when using this
apparatus, check the following points before

Philips, ensure that the apparatus is nearby
and the model number and serial number are
available.

Make sure that the AC power plug of the

check whether the Ethernet cable has
been connected properly and securely.

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

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.

Hold the numeric key 1 and plug the
power cord again.
» The power/status indicator flashes
amber, then turns solid amber, and after
