Note: To extend the length of the cables, use the supplied 50-foot extension cable (shown in the dotted line above). This cable connects between the 30-foot audio input cable and the 3-foot VAR adapter cable.

To connect the Acoustimass 5 or 20 powered speakers to your system, follow these steps:

1.Using the supplied 30-foot audio input cable, insert the round DIN connector into the Acoustimass module, and the RCA plugs into the supplied 3-foot VAR adapter cable labeled VAR on the single-connector end.

2.Attach the single-connector end of the 3-foot VAR adapter cable to one of the unused ROOM output jacks (B, C, D) on the rear of the multi-room interface (Figure 11).

Connecting power to your system

CAUTION: If you purchased a dual-voltage system, it is important that you set the speakers to the correct voltage. To do this, refer to “Selecting the correct voltage” on page 6.

Follow these steps to connect power to your Acoustimass powered speaker system:

1.Plug the power cord from the Acoustimass module into an AC power (mains) outlet.

2.Insert the power cord of the Lifestyle® system into an AC power (mains) outlet.

3.Turn the Acoustimass module power switch to the On position.

Operating in more than one room

Your Lifestyle® system Personal® music center can control up to four sets of Bose® powered speakers, allowing your family to enjoy four different audio sources (CD, radio, TV, etc.) in up to four rooms. These rooms are referred to as room A, B, C, and D, with room A being the primary room (the one used for a one-room system). If two or more rooms are connected to your system, the Personal music center displays ROOM and HOUSE buttons, and room indicators (A, B, C, and/or D). Figure 12 shows a sample display for a two-room system.

Note:Do not plug the AC power pack into a power outlet until all component connections are complete.
