Setting up a second listening zone

Your LIFESTYLE

home entertainment system can direct sound from one or two sound

sources (such as CD, AM/FM tuner, TAPE, or AUX) to two different listening zones at the
same time.

What is a zone?

Each listening area, whether a room or a group of rooms (including outdoor areas), is called a
zone. Your primary listening area is set up as zone 1.

What do I need for setting up a second zone?

• A Bose

powered speaker system that is compatible with your home entertainment system.

An existing stereo system can also be connected (special adapter required).

• The appropriate LIFESTYLE

system cable to connect the zone 2 speaker system to the

SPEAKER ZONES 2 connector on the rear panel of the media center.

• A second LIFESTYLE

system remote control to operate the zone 2 sound.

See your dealer or contact Bose for information on obtaining additional powered speakers,
remote controls, cables, and adapters for connecting additional equipment.

How do I set up a second remote to control zone 2?

Remove the battery compartment cover from the back side of the zone 2 remote.

Locate miniature switches 5 through 9 (Figure 16) and set them according to the table.

Make sure the house code switches (1, 2, 3, and 4) match those on your first remote.

Re-install the battery compartment cover back.
