Once inserted, the stand is undetachable. 1 Align the supplied stand to the jack at Stations bottom 2 Insert the stand into the jack firmly IMPORTANT!
Take the following steps to optimize the Wi-Fi connection between Center and Station. Keep your Center and Station away from the source of interference
(microwave ovens, DECT phones, bluetooth devices, cordless phones, other Wi-Fi products, etc.) Avoid placing your Center or Station close to the plasma TV. It may result in improper display on your Centers 2-way remote control. Keep Stations adequately apart or in different angles (e.g. in different rooms blocked by one wall). Within a distance and angle (e.g. in the same room), your Centers remote control is powerful enough to simultaneously operate several Stations, which may also result in improper display on the 2-way remote control. Installation Setting up Wi-Fi connection between Center and Station Wi-Fi connection starts automatically when you power up WAC5 Center and WAS5 Station 1 The first time you set up Wi-Fi connection, place Center and Station side by side on a flat and firm surface 2 First, connect the Center to power supply, and then, connect the Station to power supply Center/Station:

connection starts. You will enter HD (Harddisk) mode when the installation/connection is finished. 3 Relocate Center and Station as desired: plug and stream Simply unplug your Center or Station and power them up in other rooms. You will be able to move the harddisk music between Center and Station. Helpful hints:
Make sure you have powered up Center before powering up Station. IMPORTANT!
