Using the system with external components

Follow the instructions on pages 10-12 for connecting components.

Turn on your component directly or by using its remote control. Use the VOLUME ▲ or ▼ key on the Lifestyle® remote control or music center to raise or lower the volume. Control all other functions at the source, referring to its owner’s manual, if necessary. To begin, make sure the component is turned on and a tape, CD, laserdisc, etc. is loaded.

Note: The Lifestyle® 25 system cannot turn a connected component on or off.

Turning the system on and selecting the component

Press the TAPE, AUX, VIDEO 1, or VIDEO 2 key on the remote or press SOURCE SELECT on the music center until the desired component is selected. This turns your system on and selects the component connected to that input. If the system is already on, this key selects the component.

Note: Selecting TAPE or AUX turns the system on in STEREO (2-speaker) mode. Selecting VIDEO 1 or 2 turns the system on in SURROUND (5-speaker) mode. Press SURROUND (5-speaker), STEREO+CENTER (3-speaker), or STEREO (2-speaker) to change the mode.

The appropriate display indicator lights when the system is on and the component is selected.

Using a video sound source

Press VIDEO 1 or VIDEO 2 on the remote or SOURCE SELECT on the music center until VIDEO 1 or 2 appears on the display. This turns your system on in SURROUND mode and selects the video sound source connected to the VIDEO 1 or 2 jacks. If the system is already on, this key selects the component and SURROUND mode.

If your video component is connected to the music center AUX or TAPE jacks, press AUX or TAPE on the remote or SOURCE SELECT on the music center to select the component. This turns your system on in STEREO mode. Press SURROUND to select 5-speaker mode.

Using a tape deck

To record to a connected tape deck, play the source (AM/FM, CD, AUX, VIDEO 1 or 2) you want to tape. In a 2-zone system, play the source in zone 1. Set the tape deck to record.

Using headphones

For headphone listening, use the stereo mini headphones jack on the side of the music center (Figure 28). While this jack accepts most headphone models, you can get an adapter at Bose® dealers and most electronics stores, if needed.
