or (3) refund the original purchase price of the product.
Philips warrants replacement products or parts provided under
this warranty against defects in materials and workmanship from
the date of the replacement or repair for ninety (90) days or for

8 Troubleshooting
Warning
 Never remove the casing of this apparatus.
To keep the warranty valid, never try to repair
the system yourself.
If you encounter problems when using this
apparatus, check the following points before
requesting service. If the problem remains
unsolved, go to the Philips web site (www.
philips.com/welcome). When you contact
Philips, ensure that the apparatus is nearby
and the model number and serial number are
available.
No power
Make sure that the AC power plug of the
device is connected properly.
Make sure that there is power at the AC
outlet.
Before you carry DS3881W for use on the
go, make sure to fully charge the built-in
battery.
No sound
Adjust the volume.
Check the Wi-Fi network connection.
Set up the network again if needed (see
‘Connect to your home Wi-Fi network for
AirPlay’ on page 12).
No response from the unit
Press and hold both the + and - buttons
on DS3881W for more than 5 seconds
to reset the device. Then set up the
Wi-Fi network for DS3881W again (see
‘Connect to your home Wi-Fi network for
AirPlay’ on page 12).
Disconnect and reconnect the AC power
plug, and then switch on the device again.

802.11b/g mode. DS3881W does not
support connection to routers with
802.11n only.
This device does not support the WPSPIN method.
If your Wi-Fi router supports WPS and
the WPS-PBC method but fails to connect
to DS3881W, try the manual Wi-Fi setup
method (see ‘Scenario 2: Connect to a
non-WPS router’ on page 13).
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.
If you fail to use your PC for Wi-Fi network
setup, check whether your PC is using a
Wi-Fi network. You cannot use Ethernet
connection for AirPlay network setup.
Make sure that the SSID name of your
home router consists of alphanumeric
characters, with no space or special
characters like %/#/* inserted.
If you choose to rename the AirPlay device
‘Philips_Fidelio XXXX’ in the setting
menu, 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.
Occasional breaking of AirPlay music
streaming
Do one or all of the following:
Move DS3881W closer to your Wi-Fi
router.
Remove any obstacles between DS3881W
and your Wi-Fi router.

Avoid using Wi-Fi channel which is
overlapped by the nearby Wi-Fi network.
Check if your network speed is fast enough
(in cases where multiple devices share the
same router, the AirPlay performance may
be affected). Turn off the other devices
connected to your home router.
Enable the Quality of Service (QoS)
option (if available on the Wi-Fi router).
Turn off other Wi-Fi routers.
English
No AirPlay icon on my iTunes host device
Make sure that DS3881W is already
connected to your home Wi-Fi network.
Before you open iTunes, make sure that
you have enabled Bonjour service in
your PC. Take Windows XP for example:
to enable the service, you can click
Start->Control Panel, and double-click
Administrative Tools-> Services->Bonjour
Service, then click Start followed by OK
on the pop-up menu.
If the problem remains, try to restart
DS3881W.

the ports that AirPlay uses to stream
content. See the help documentation of

to unblock the ports used by AirPlay.
When you use iPod Touch/iPhone/iPad/
Mac/PC for AirPlay, if the music play breaks
or stops, try to restart your iPod Touch/
iPhone/iPad, iTunes or DS3881W.
Video streaming or FTP downloads may
overload your router and therefore may
cause interruptions during AirPlay music
play. Try to reduce the load of your router.
