• Microphone Grille: Periodically remove the microphone grille and clean any debris or moisture from the foam windscreen.

Troubleshooting

• No Audio: Ensure both the receiver and transmitter are powered on and successfully linked. Check all cable connections and volume levels.
• Signal Dropouts/Interference: Reposition the receiver for better line of sight. Perform a frequency scan on the receiver to find a clearer channel. Ensure no other wireless devices are operating on conflicting frequencies.
