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 “Troubleshooting” on page 41.

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. 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.

Another characteristic shared by both systems is the remote control flexibility, allowing users to manage the audio setup from any part of the room without needing to physically interact with the base system. Additionally, both models provide connectivity with smartphones and other devices, reinforcing the systems’ user-friendly appeal.

In summary, the Bose Lifestyle 18 Series II and Lifestyle 28 Series II encapsulate quality and sophistication through advanced sound technology, ensuring users enjoy an unmatched audio experience in the comfort of their homes.
