PREPARATION

Unpacking

Carefully unpack the speakers. Check to be sure the carton includes all the parts shown in
Figure 2. If any part of the speaker pair appears damaged, do not use them. Notify Bose or
your authorized Bose dealer immediately. For Bose contact information, refer to the address
list included in the carton.
Note: Now is a good time to find the serial numbers on the back of each speaker and copy the
numbers onto your warranty card and in the “For your records” space on page 2.
