Antenna extender
If your remote control does not communicate with the media center, but the batteries are still
good, you may need an antenna extender to increase transmission range. To contact Bose to
purchase an extender, refer to the address list included in the carton.
IR emitter cable (supplied)
If a component does not respond to the LIFESTYLE
®
system remote control commands, the
IR (infrared) signals may not be reaching it. Try moving the component or media center
slightly to see if that improves the response.
If there is still a problem, connect the supplied IR emitter to establish a solid response while !
setting your LIFESTYLE
®
remote to control this component. You may not need to use the
emitter after that. Or keep it connected, as needed, for use with one component.
Note:
For information on how to set the LIFESTYLE
®
remote to control the TV, refer to your
Operating Guide.
To connect the emitter:
1. Insert the 3.5 mm plug at one end of the cable into the IR Emitter jack on the media !
center panel.
2. At the other end of the cable, place the rounded surface near the component.
3. Move the emitter around, as necessary, to find the best position.
4. Use the double-sided tape enclosed with the emitter to affix it in position near the !
component.
Note:
To purchase an add-on IR emitter for use with up to three components, or for replacement
of the supplied emitter, contact Bose Customer Service. Refer to the address list included in the
carton.
