Setting Up  
®
Select the locations for your Lifestyle 5 music system  
When you place your speakers according to the guidelines below, a combination of reflected  
and direct sound provides a good stereo image virtually everywhere in the room. You may  
experiment with the placement and orientation of the cubes and the Acoustimass® module to  
produce the sound most pleasing to you.  
To adjust your system for the characteristics of your listening room, see Fine-tuning your  
systemon page 23.  
Speaker locations  
Follow these guidelines to select locations for your Lifestyle® 5 music system. The speaker  
cables allow up to 20 feet (6.1 m) distance from the Acoustimass® module.  
CAUTION: Choose a stable and level surface for your speakers. Vibration can cause the  
speakers to move, particularly on smooth surfaces like marble, glass, or highly polished  
wood. For additional stability, you can add rubber feet to your speakers. You may obtain  
rubber feet (part no. 178321), free of charge, from Bose®. Contact Bose Customer Service  
(see listings on the inside back cover).  
1. For the most lifelike sound, place the cube arrays 6-12 feet (1.8-3.6 m) apart. They can be  
as close as 3 feet (1 m) or as far apart as 15 feet (4.6 m).  
2. Direct one cube of each array forward. Direct the other cube toward the wall or in a  
different direction to create reflected sound. (See the illustration of reflected sound pat-  
terns in Figure 2.)  
Note: The cube speakers are magnetically shielded so you can place them close to a  
TV without affecting picture quality.  
Note: If you put the speakers in a bookcase unit, be sure to place each one at the front  
edge of the shelf. Placing speakers in an enclosed space can change the tonal quality of the  
sound. This effect is minimized if the shelves are filled with books.

Acoustimass module  
Follow these guidelines to select a location for the Acoustimass module.  
Note: To avoid interference with the TV picture, place the Acoustimass module at least  
18 inches (45 cm) from a TV.  
1. Place the module along the same the wall as the speakers, if possible (Figure 2).  
2. Select a convenient location under a table, behind a sofa. Do not allow furniture or  
drapes to block the ventilation openings of the module.  
3. Place the module within reach of the audio input cable, speaker cables, and an AC power  
(mains) outlet.  
4. Select a position for the Acoustimass module (Figure 3). For proper ventilation, place it on  
the long edge, with the connectors facing the floor. An alternate position is on its largest  
side, with the bass and treble controls facing up. Do not place the module on either end,  
as shown by the last two views in Figure 3.

5. 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.  
6. Aim the port (the round opening) into the room or along the wall to avoid blocking the port  
or creating too much bass.  
7. For best bass performance, do not place the port at equal distances from any two walls or  
from a wall and the ceiling.  
CAUTION: Do not cover the ventilation openings of the Acoustimass module. The slots on  
the end provide ventilation for the built-in electronic circuitry, and should not be blocked.  
Music center  
Select a location for the music center.  
1. Allow enough room to open the CD player cover.  
2. Place the music center close enough to any additional sound sources (TV, VCR, etc.) to  
allow for cable length. If you need additional audio and/or video cables to connect all of  
your components, see your dealer or call Bose®.  
3. Place the music center within 30 feet (9.1 m) of the Acoustimass module (the length of the  
audio input cable).  
Note: Since some TVs can interfere with the proper operation of a CD player or tuner, you  
may want to avoid placing the music center directly on top of your TV.

Connecting the cube speaker arrays to the Acoustimass  
module  
Each speaker cable contains two wires. The wire marked with a red collar is positive (+) and  
the plain one is negative (). These wires match the positive (red) and negative (black) termi-  
nals on the back of each speaker. To lengthen the cable, use standard RCA extension cables  
or splice in 18-gauge or thicker cord (connecting + to + and to ). To purchase cables, see  
your dealer, electronics store, or call Bose® customer service.  
1. Match the correct cable to the corresponding speaker location.  
Speaker cables have blue connectors at one end, with L and R molded into the  
connectors.  
The red collars on the + wire are labeled LEFT and RIGHT.  
2. Connect the wire end of one speaker cable to the terminals on the rear of the matching  
cube speaker array.  
a. Press the terminal tab on the back of the cube array to insert the marked wire into the  
red terminal and the plain wire into the black terminal. Release the tab to secure the  
wire.  
b. Repeat this step for each of the cube speaker arrays. (See Figure 4.)  
Figure 4  
Speaker cable connections to  
the cube speaker array  
CAUTION: Make sure no strands of wire from any terminal touch any other terminal.  
Bridged wires create short circuits that affect proper operation of your system.  
3. Connect each cable to the corresponding left or right blue jack on the Acoustimass  
module.

Miniature switches  
Set radio channel spacing for dual voltage and 120V systems  
Dual voltage music centers (which include both 120V and 230V power packs) and 120V  
music centers can be set for two types of AM and FM channel spacing.  
Channel spacing for North America is 10 kHz for AM and 200 kHz for FM.  
Channel spacing for Europe is 9 kHz for AM and 50 kHz for FM.  
Your dual voltage or 120V music center is factory preset for North American spacing. Select  
the channel spacing most appropriate for your area.  
To change AM and FM channel spacing:  
1. Press OFF to turn off the music system.  
2. Press and release the ERASE key under the CD cover. (See Figure 15 on page 15.)  
The display indicates US for North American spacing and EU for European spacing.  
Turn on the music system  
Plug the Acoustimass® module power cord into an AC (mains) outlet. Then plug in the music  
center power pack. Turn the power switch on the module connection panel to the ON (I)  
position. We recommend you leave this switch on. The module uses less than 2 watts of  
electricity in standby mode (less than an average night light).  
Note: Your speakers will not operate unless you complete all cable and power connections  
before turning on the music center.  
Note: If your system will be unattended for a few days, you may want to unplug your music  
center to prevent a neighbors Lifestyle® remote control or your pets from accidentally turning  
it on. In addition, see Changing the house code settingson page 19.  
You are ready to enjoy your new Lifestyle® system. Refer to the following pages for informa-  
tion on operating the music center controls and the Lifestyle® remote control.

Maintaining Your Lifestyle 5 music system  
Fine-tuning your system  
In most situations, you only need to follow the speaker placement guidelines (see Setting  
Upon pages 6-7) for your system to provide excellent sound quality.  
You do not need to adjust tone settings for changes in volume, since Bose® patented signal  
processing technology provides a natural tonal balance over the full range of volume settings.  
Figure 17  
Bass and treble controls  
If desired, you can further fine-tune your system as described here.  
Adjusting speaker controls  
The Lifestyle® 5 music system TREBLE and BASS controls are located on the Acoustimass®  
module (Figure 17). They allow you to adjust the treble (high frequencies) and bass (low  
frequencies). In the normal setting, the dots on each control are in the 12 oclock position.  
You can also locate the normal setting by feeling when the control settles into the notch at  
this position. Turn the controls clockwise to increase, and counterclockwise to decrease, the  
amount of treble or bass.  
®
Compensating for room acoustics  
The acoustics (sound qualities) of your room can affect the overall sound quality of any  
speaker system. In general, you can reduce many problems with acoustics by the cautious  
use of the TREBLE and BASS controls.  
T
reb  
le  
B
as  
s
Too much or too little treble  
Rooms with too few sound-absorbing furnishings, especially those with bare floors and walls,  
may sound overly shrill or bright.Turning down the treble control (toward )  
decreases treble sound.  
Rooms with a lot of sound-absorbing furnishings, such as upholstered furniture, wall-to-wall  
carpet, or heavy drapes, may reduce the treble sound of your system. Moving speakers  
further away from soft furnishings increases treble. You can increase treble sound by slightly  
turning up the treble control (toward +).  
Too much or too little bass  
You can decrease bass sound by turning down the bass control (toward ). To increase bass,  
turn up the bass control (toward +).  
Acoustimass module placement affects the amount of bass you hear. Placing the module  
closer to the corner of the room increases bass. Moving the module away from the corner  
decreases bass.

Changing the house code settings  
Each Lifestyle® remote control uses a system of matching house codes to communicate with  
its corresponding music center. If your remotes commands ever conflict with those of  
another nearby Lifestyle® system, you can easily set a new house code for your system and  
its remote control(s) by following the procedures below.  
1. Open the remote control battery cover.  
2. Locate the miniature switches (Figure 22). Change the position of switch 2, 3, or 4 by  
moving it in the opposite direction from its current setting.  
Note: Do not change any other switches at this time.  
3. Replace the battery cover on the remote control.  
4. Press the OFF key on the console.  
5. Open the CD cover.  
6. Press the STORE key. The display will begin to flash ‘— —’.  
7. Within two seconds while the display is flashing, press any key on the remote control.  
The display stops flashing and momentarily shows ‘— —’ to confirm recognition of the  
house code. The system will remain off.  
8. If you have additional remote controls, open the battery cover of each one and change the  
switches to match those of the first remote control. It is not necessary to repeat steps 47.

Maintaining Your Lifestyle 5 music system  
Adding speakers  
Your Lifestyle® 5 music system provides high quality audio for a single listening area.  
However, your music center also provides connections (SPEAKERS B) for adding a pair of  
powered speakers in a second room. In the second room, you can listen to the sound source  
that is playing in the main room.  
You can purchase an additional remote control to keep in the second room.  
Keep the following considerations in mind if you choose to connect secondary speakers.  
Using speakers connected to the B outputs:  
You must use a second remote control, set to B (see instructions below), to turn on the  
B speakers.  
Adjusting volume with this second remote adjusts volume for only the B speakers.  
Using the mute key on the second remote mutes or unmutes the second room  
speakers.  
Using speakers connected to the A and/or FIXED outputs:  
The music center controls operate speakers connected to A and FIXED outputs.  
Adjusting volume from the music center control panel or with the remote control that  
came with the system adjusts volume for speakers connected to A and FIXED outputs.  
Using the mute key on the main remote mutes or unmutes speakers connected to A  
and FIXED outputs.  
Setting a second remote for additional speakers  
You need a second remote control, set to B, to operate speakers connected to the  
SPEAKERS B outputs. When you purchase a second remote control, it is shipped set to A, to  
control your main speakers. It will also control secondary speakers connected to FIXED  
outputs.  
To set your second remote to control speakers connected to B, follow these steps:  
1. Open the remote control battery cover.  
2. Locate miniature switch 5. Slide the switch down (Figure 23).  
3. Locate miniature switch 6. Slide the switch up (Figure 23).  
4. Make sure that the house code switches match those on your first remote (see page 20).  
5. Replace the battery cover on the remote control.  
Note: Switches 7 and 8 are not for current system use.
