• Do not cover the AV cordless IR transmitter and
IR receiver with your hands or other objects.
• Infrared rays cannot pass through walls or
opaque glass. Be sure to place the AV cordless IR
transmitter and receiver in an unobstructed
position. Using LASER LINK through glass will
shorten the transmission range.

close to the TV, as this may cause noise and/ or
beat.
• If you are using the AV cordless IR transmitter
only with a battery pack, and the remaining
battery capacity becomes low, noise may occur
on the pictures and sounds, and the transmission
range may shorten. When using LASER LINK,
connect the AV cordless IR transmitter to the AC
power adaptor or charge the battery.
