English System Installation Figure 6 Right and wrong placements for the Acoustimass module • Put any side of the Acoustimass® module on the floor. DO NOT stand it on either end (Figure 6). BEST For best ventilation, stand it on the narrow side with the connectors facing the floor. DO NOT stand the module on its slightly curved back end, which can cause it to tip over. ALTERNATE Or, place it on one of the two broad sides. Ventilation openings DO NOT stand the module on its front grille end. The weight of the module can damage the grille. • Once you have selected a position for the module, place the four self-adhesive rubber feet near the corners of the bottom surface. The rubber feet provide increased stability and protection from scratches. CAUTION: The magnetic field from the Acoustimass module is not a short-term risk to your video tapes, audio tapes, and other magnetic media. However, you should not store tapes directly on or near the Acoustimass module. Placing your media center Note: If the serial number on the bottom of the media center is not already printed on your Product Registration card, now is a good time to record it there and in the space provided on page 3 of this guide. Note: Sending in the product registration card, included with your system, is very important if you want to receive software updates. Be sure to fill out the card and mail it to Bose. Select a location for the media center, keeping in mind the following guidelines: • Do not block the front of the media center. Allow enough room to lift up the front cover and open the CD/DVD tray. Also, be sure you have a clear view of the display window on the front of the media center (Figure 7). • Place the media center close enough to other sound sources (TV and VCR) to allow for easy cable connections. If you need additional audio or video cables to connect your components, see your dealer or call Bose® customer service. Refer to the Bose address list included with your system. • Place the media center within 30 feet (9.1 m) of the Acoustimass module (the length of the audio input cable). Note: For convenience, until your system is completely installed, you may wish to place the media center where you have easy access to its rear connection panel. 11
