FCC AND CANADA EMC COMPLIANCE INFORMATION:
NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device,
pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection
against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can
radiate radio frequency energy and, if not in-stalled and used in accordance with the instructions, may
cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference
will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio
or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is
encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which
the receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Approved under the verification provision of FCC Part 15 as a Class B Digital Device.
Caution: Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the manufacturer could void the user’s
authority to operate this device.
This Class B digital apparatus complies with Canadian ICES-003.
Cet appareil numérique de la classe B est conforme à la norme NMB-003 du Canada.
EU COMPLIANCE INFORMATION:
Eligible to bear the CE mark, Conforms to European Union Low Voltage Directive 2006/95/EC;
Conforms to European Union EMC Directive 2004/108/EC.
WEEE NOTICE
Note: This mark applies only to countries within the European Union (EU) and Norway.
This appliance is labeled in accordance with European Directive 2002/96/EC concerning

WIRELESS TRANSMITTER COMPLIANCE INFORMATION:
The term “IC:” before the radio certification number only signifies that Industry Canada technical
specifications were met. This equipment complies with FCC and IC radiation exposure limits set forth for
an uncontrolled environment. This equipment should be installed and operated with minimum distance
20cm between the radiator and your body. This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in
conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
Le terme «IC:» avant le numéro de certification radio signifie seulement que les spécifications
techniques d’Industrie Canada ont été respectées.
Cet appareil est conforme à FCC et IC l’exposition aux rayonnements limites fixées pour un envi-
ronnement non contrôlé. Cet appareil doit être installé et utilisé avec une distance minimale de 20 cm
entre le radiateur et votre corps. Cet transmetteur ne doit pas être co-situé ou opérant en liaison avec
toute autre antenne ou transmetteur.
This device has been designed to operate with the antennas listed below, and having a maximum gain of
[x] dB. Antennas not included in this list or having a gain greater than [x] dB are strictly prohibited for
use with this device. The required antenna impedance is 50 ohms.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause interference, and (2)
this device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of
the device.
To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so chosen
that the equivalent isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than that permitted for successful
communication.
Thank you for your purchase of the Klipsch WA-2 Wireless Subwoofer Kit!

Setup:
1. Decide where the subwoofer will go (refer to your subwoofer owner’s manual).
2. Most receivers (and pre-amplifiers) have a line level subwoofer output labeled Subwoofer Pre Out,
Sub Out, SW Out, etc. If you have this, connect one end of the supplied audio cable to it and connect
the other end of the cable into WA-2 transmitter input ‘C’ . In absence of a subwoofer output connect
Left and Right channel Pre-Amp outputs from your receiver (if provided) to ‘C’ and ‘B’ inputs on the
transmitter.
3. Connect the cable from the WA-2 receiver to the “WA Port” on the back of the
subwoofer. Carefully match the 4 pins of the cable to the corresponding 4 holes on the
WA Port and gently push in until connected. Improper pin alignment can result in damage
to the connector.
4. Plug supplied power supply cable into ‘E’ on the WA-2 transmitter and plug other end into an AC wall
outlet.
CAUTION
