English Reference Other jacks on the media center panel Connecting an optional antenna extender If your remote control does not communicate with the media center, the batteries may need replacement or it may be out of transmission range. To extend the range, plug an antenna extender, which may be purchased at an authorized Bose® dealer, into its connection on the media center. See Figure 27 on page 30. Connecting the optional IR emitter cable The IR (infrared) emitter cable is designed for optional use when a particular component does not respond to LIFESTYLE® system remote control commands. That is, the component is connected to the media center, but placed where it cannot receive the IR signals from the media center. The IR emitter can be placed next to one component only. See Figure 27 on page 30. To use the emitter: 1. Insert the 3.5 mm plug into the IR EMITTER jack on the media center panel. 2. Place the flat side of the other end of the cable near the unresponsive component so that the remote control signals reach that component. Note: Refer to "Controlling external sources" in your LIFESTYLE® system Operating Guide for details on how to program the LIFESTYLE® system remote so that it works with your other component. 3. Confirm that IR signals now work to control that component. Move the emitter around, as necessary, to find the best position. 4. Use the double-sided tape enclosed with the emitter to affix it in the proper position. Note: If you have questions, or need to obtain a replacement emitter, contact Bose customer service.
