General notes

!
The picture and sound quality will be influenced by the use of microwave ovens. Other
wireless systems (Bluetooth, wireless LANs, etc.) can also adversely influence the quality
of picture and sound.
!
The Wireless TV Link is a Radio Frequency (RF) based product. As such its performance
can suffer the same kinds of interference as GSMs, portable radios and other RF-based
products.
!
The Wireless TV Link has one transmitter unit, so all Receiver units will receive the same
video content.
!
The Wireless TV link is not limited to just one room or house. You can use it anywhere
in or around the house. Consequently, anybody in the vicinity of your house (up to the
maximum operating range) who also owns a W ireless TV link set to the same channel,
can watch the same programmes that are playing on your video source.
!
In order to prohibit the mixing up of Remote Control commands it's not advisable to
use a TV as a video source.
!
Some built-in VCRs (TV-VCR combination) cannot be used with the Transmitter unit of
the W ireless TV link (depends on brand and type).
!
If you wish to leave the original remote controls with your video sources, Philips has
a complete range of Universal Remote Controls that cover all the equipment you want
to operate, regardless of brand or age.
!
Radio wave safety: When switched on, the Wireless TV Link transmits and receives
radio waves. The Wireless TV Link complies with the standards that are defined for it.
!
The Philips Wireless TV Link has an operating range of up 100 metres in open air. Walls,
ceilings and other large objects may limit the useable operating range to about 30 metres
in house.
