For Best Results• Try to keep the TuneStage Transmitter close to your home stereo system. While the Transmitter often works at distances of 33 feet or more, a distance of 10 feet or less will minimize interference and maximize performance. • Power on the TuneStage Receiver first and then plug the Transmitter into the iPod to begin the pairing process.• Adjust the volume on the iPod to a medium level and increase the volume on the stereo to a desired listening level.• Bluetooth devices are known to have interference from devices operating in the same RF frequency (2.4GHz). However, using AFH (Adaptive Frequency Hopping), the interference with 802.11b/g has been minimized. Some interference (within a 6 1⁄2-foot range) with microwave ovens and 2.4GHz cordless phones may be present.
