If the remote does not work as you expect
If your system does not respond when you press a button on the remote, it could be time to
change batteries. For information on the type of batteries to use and how to change them,
refer to “Replacing the remote control batteries” on page 51
In some buildings, you may experience “dead spots” where the remote control will not
operate effectively. If this happens, move the remote a foot or two and try again. Also make
sure the cord that connects the power supply to the media center (and contains the remote
antenna) is stretched to its full length and is separated from other power cords. If these
efforts do not work, move the media center a few feet to a location where it provides a better
response.
If the batteries are fine and the suggestions concerning “dead spots,” above do not work,
you may need an antenna extender. To contact Bose
® customer service to request one, refer
to the address list included with the system.
The media center
The disc tray and system controls are located under the front panel door of the media center.
To the right of that is the display window (Figure 1).
An IR signal emitter, located below the media center controls, enables you to control other
components using the LIFESTYLE
® remote. Avoid blocking that emitter, so its signal will have
a clear path to other components or reflective surfaces in the room.

The media center display window indicates the state of the system, including what source is
playing, details of that program, and what option, if any, is selected (Figure 2).
