Check your amplifier or receiver owner's guide, since other components may be the cause of the problem. 3. Use the chart below as troubleshooting guidelines. If this does not solve the problem, contact your authorized Bose® dealer to arrange for service. Refer to the address list enclosed in the product packaging for correct phone numbers.
