Connecting the speakers to multi-room interface systems
To connect the Lifestyle ® powered speaker system to your Lifestyle ® system refer to Figure 9.
Then follow these steps:
1. Make sure all components are unplugged from the AC power (mains) outlet before making
any connections.
2. Connect the attached 6-foot audio input cable to the supplied 3-foot VAR adapter cable
(labeled VAR on the single-connector end).
3. Attach the other end of the 3-foot VAR adapter cable to one of the unused ROOM output
jacks (B, C, D) on the rear of the multi-room interface.
Note: To extend the length of the cables, use the supplied 50-foot extension cable (shown
as dotted line above). This cable connects between the 6-foot audio input and the 3-foot VAR
adapter cable.
Connecting power to your system
If you purchased a dual-voltage system, it is important that you set the speakers to the
correct voltage setting. To do this, refer to “Selecting the correct voltage” on page 5.
Follow these steps to connect power to your Lifestyle ® powered speaker system:
1. With the volume control on the left speaker turned all the way down (counterclockwise),
plug the power cord from the left speaker into an AC power (mains) outlet.
2. Insert the power cord of the Lifestyle ® system into an AC power (mains) outlet.
3. Set the speaker’s volume control to the two-o’clock position and turn on your music.
Operating speakers in more than one room
Your Lifestyle ® Personal ® music center can control up to four sets of Bose ® powered speak-
ers, allowing your family to enjoy four different audio sources (CD, radio, TV, etc.) in up to four
rooms. These rooms are referred to as room A, B, C, and D, with room A being the primary
room (the one used for a one-room system). If two or more rooms are connected to your
system, the Personal music center displays ROOM and HOUSE buttons, and room indicators
A, B, C, and/or D. Figure 10 shows a sample display for a two-room system.
