After unpacking your new system, save all packing materials. The original packing materials provide the safest way to transport your system if necessary. If any part of your system is missing or appears damaged, contact your authorized Bose® dealer immediately, or contact Bose directly. Refer to the Bose address list included with your system.

The instructions in this section tell you how to connect your system as shown in Figure 1. For alternate system connections, see “Using alternate system connections” on page 23.
