Maintenance and Service
The satellite and subwoofer enclosures may be cleaned using a soft cloth to remove fingerprints or to wipe off dust. All wiring
connections should be inspected and cleaned or remade at least once a year.
If a problem does occur, make sure that all connections are properly made, secure and clean. If a problem occurs in one loud-
speaker, rewire that speaker in a different location within the system. Should the problem persist in this speaker the problem
is within the speaker. If the speaker sounds fine in the new position it is a strong indication of a more in depth issue with the
electronics in the system. In the event that your MCS 160 ever needs service, contact your local Boston Acoustics dealer or
visit www.Bostona.com for a list of dealers in your area.
If your subwoofer does not play, check that all the connectors on the cables are making proper contact and that the AC plug
is connected to a “live” receptacle.
