Follow steps 4-8 on page 32 to match the house code settings. • Change the house code setting to prevent signals from conflicting with another nearby Lifestyle® system. See page 32 for instructions on setting the house code. • Make sure antennas are connected properly. • Move AM antenna at least 20 inches (50 cm) from the music center. • Adjust antenna position to improve reception. • AM antenna must be upright. • Move antennas farther from TV or other electronic equipment. • You may be in an area of weak signal coverage. • Check to see if the play symbol in the display is lit. • After pressing the CD key, wait a few seconds before pressing PLAY. • Make sure the magazine is properly inserted. • Check to see if there is a disc in the magazine, label-side up.

See Figure 33 on page 33. • The disc may be defective. Try another disc. • A display message "E01" indicates a mechanical error. Unplug the music center. Reconnect power and try again. If "E01" reappears, call Bose® customer service (see inside back cover for listings). • Adjust antenna position to reduce interference. • Weak FM stations will produce static in the surround speakers.
