out terminal, connect it to the AUX IN left terminal.
Alternatively, you can use a “single to double” cinch
cable, but the output sound still remain mono.
– Always refer to the owner’s manual of other
equipment for complete connection.
B Connecting an additional appliance
It is possible to use an additional appliance, e.g.
TV, VCR, Laser Disc player, DVD player or CD
recorder, with the Station.
1 Insert the red plug of the red/white audio cables
(not supplied) to the red socket AUX IN R and
the white plug to the white socket AUX IN L.
2 Connect the other end of the audio cables to
the AUDIO OUT terminals of the additional
appliance.
3 Extend the extension line and move it in
different positions for optimal reception (as far
away as possible from the TV, VCR or other
radiation sources).
4 Fix the extension line’s end to the ceiling.
Using AC power
1 Make sure all the connections have been made
before switching on the power supply.
2 Connect the AC power cord to the wall socket.
This switches on the power supply.
When Center or Station is switched to standby,
it is still consuming some power. To disconnect
the system from the power supply
completely, remove the power plug from
the wall socket.
The type plate is located on the rear of the
set.

WARNING
Under no circumstances should you try to repair the system yourself, as this will
invalidate the warranty. Do not open the system as there is a risk of electric shock.
If a fault occurs, first check the points listed below before taking the system for repair. If
you are unable to remedy a problem by following these hints, consult your dealer or
Philips for help.
Problem
Solution
Troubleshooting
✔ Check you have connected the Center to power
supply
✔ When adding a new station, check your center is
in Installation mode (See Installation,
Setting up Wi-Fi connection between
Center and Station)
If you are playing the set, stop playback and take
the appropriate measures as follows:
✔ Keep the Center or Station at least 3 meters
away from such devices.
✔ Use the WEP key when connecting your
Center and Station to an existing wireless PC
network. See the manual Connect to
your PC.
✔ Change the operating channel of your Center
and Station when connecting them to an existing
wireless PC network. To learn about how to
change channels, see the manual Connect to
your PC.
✔ If possible, change the operating channels of
the other Wi-Fi devices at your home.
✔ Tu rn the devices in different directions to
minimize interference.
✔ Check your plasma TV is turned off
✔ Check you have placed two IR operated devices
( Station) in separate rooms wherever possible.
Wi-Fi connection:
During the first-time setup, Station’s
display shows “Searching for Center”.
I get interference on my wireless (WiFi)
link between center and station.
The WACS 700 operate in the 2.4GHz radio
frequency spectrum. Many other household/IT
devices also operate in the frequency spectrum,
for example: microwave ovens, Dect phones,
bluetooth devices like bluetooth headphones,
computer mouse, wireless routers, cordless
phones, WiFi compatible printers, PDAs.
These devices can interfere with the WiFi link
between Center and Station, resulting in such
interference as the pause during playback , the
set’s slow response to your operation. The
severity of interference varies depending on the
extent of radiation from the device and the
strength of Wi-Fi signals in the position.
Remote control:
When I am using the Center’s 2-way
remote control, it starts to show
"connecting ....connecting" on the display
endlessly.
When you read this message on the 2-way
remote control, there could be the following
interference on your remote control:
1) interference signals from the Plasma TV screen
(if this device is turned on);
2) conflicting IR signals from a nearby WAS700
Station

Tuner
Radio reception is poor
There will be very interference on the
radio reception whenever my center or
station is near the PC.
Such interferece happens to most of the built-in
tuner product.
Wall mounting
How do I mount the Station onto walls?
✔ If the signal is too weak, adjust the antenna or
connect an external antenna for better
reception.
✔ Increase the distance between the set and your
TV or VCR.
✔ Install the supplied FM wire antenna for better
reception.
✔ Keep your Center or Station at least 1 meter
away from PC.
✔ Use the by-packed wall mounting kits. It is
recommended you get a qualified person to fix
the mounting brackets safely onto your walls
before you mount the Center or Station. For
details, refer to the Appendix : How to
mount your Station onto Walls
Troubleshooting
Stations react when you operate
Center’s remote control
x flashes on the sychro display of Center’s
remote control
After the set is switched on, nothing
appears on the sychro display of Center’s
remote control
The remote control does not function
properly.
✔ Center’s remote control is powerful enough to
operate several Stations within certain distance
or angle. Check you have placed the Stations in
different rooms or place Stations in different
angles
✔ Use Station’s remote control or the controls on
the set.
✔ Signal error. Check you have pointed the remote
control toward the IR area of the set you wish
to operate
✔ You switched on the set by using the control on
the set instead of center’s remote control.
Press REFRESH on center’s remote control to
synchronize its display.
✔ Remove the protective plastic tab before using
the Station’s remote control.
✔ Reduce the distance between the remote
control and the set.
✔ Insert the batteries with their polarities
(+/– signs) aligned as indicated.
✔ Replace the batteries.
✔ Point the remote control directly towards the IR
sensor.
