Limited warranty

This system is covered by a transferable limited warranty. 

Details of the limited warranty are provided on the Product Registration Card that came with 
your system. Please fill out the information section on the card and mail it to Bose. Failure to 
do so, however, will not affect your limited warranty rights.

Interference from a

microwave oven

• Reposition the transmitter so it is in a more open area.
• Move the receiver farther from the microwave.

Sound heard in the 
expansion room is 
not coming from 
your media center 
or audio source

Change the Setup code switches on both the transmitter and the receiver, making sure 
they are identical. This may prevent signals from another AL8 transmitter in the vicinity 
from reaching your receiver.

Try different switch settings. Your other options are: 1 & 2 up; 1 up & 2 down; or 1 down 

& 2 up.

Unexpected sound 
from the media 

center 

Change the house code settings in both your LIFESTYLE

®

 system and any remote 

controls you are using with it.

This may prevent another nearby LIFESTYLE

®

 system from affecting the operation of your 

system.

For further information on house codes and how to change them, refer to the owner’s 
guides that came with your LIFESTYLE

®

 system and Bose

®

 link remote controls.
