® ® Bose LIFESTYLE RC-18S Remote Control Owner’s Guide and Bose® Link Expansion Overview Guía del usuario y Bose® Link: Información general de ampliación Notice d’utilisation et présentation de la télécommande d’expansion compatible avec un réseau Bose® Link Introduction Thank you for choosing the RC-18S remote English This remote is one of many Bose® link compatible products designed to work with the LIFESTYLE® 18 Series II or 28 Series II systems. Built-in compatibility makes this additional remote useful in any area of your home... wherever you want to hear Bose-quality sound from your system! Deutsch As the owner of a Bose® LIFESTYLE® RC-18S remote control, you can enjoy a wide variety of new options with your LIFESTYLE® Series II DVD home entertainment system. Dansk Introduction Where to use this expansion remote Español Using the RC-18S remote in another room, you can turn your LIFESTYLE® system on and tune in audio from the the media center located in the main room. You can even select a different sound source, changing from CD to FM radio, for example. The remote works with: Français • Bose® link compatible powered speakers • Bose® link amplifiers with passive speakers • Other stereo amplifiers. Nederlands Italiano By using one of the expansion room solutions above, you can enjoy LIFESTYLE® system sound in another area of your house. Depending on which expansion product you choose, it may allow you to connect a local sound source in that expansion room to further extend your choice of audio. Then use the RC-18S remote to control all of connected sources, regardless of where they’re located. Engineered to emit radio frequency signals that work through walls and floors, the RC-18S can command sound from different floors of your residence, too. Svenska How it differs from your primary remote The RC-18S remote works as a complement to the primary remote that came with your LIFESTYLE® Series II system. This additional remote provides the control you need to listen to your system in other areas of your house. 2 Contents Where to find...

Deciding Where and How Setting up your expansion products Deciding Where and How English If you have purchased other Bose® link compatible products, you can pair them to work seamlessly with your new remote. This allows you to command sound from your LIFESTYLE® system in an entirely different part of your home. Dansk To get an additional room of sound Deutsch It takes only a few steps to set up one additional room of sound with Bose products. With batteries installed in the RC-18S remote, you can then use it for control in the same area with those products. 2. Check the room setting on the amplifier, as instructed in the owner’s guide that came with it. This setting must be different from the main room remote. 3. Check the switch settings inside the battery compartment of the RC-18S remote. These include: Français Español With a Bose SA-2 or SA-3 amplifier and speakers: 1. Arrange and connect the speakers and amplifier as instructed in the amplifier owner’s guide. (A Bose® link A cable is supplied with the amplifier only.) • House code (switches 1-4): Must match the main room remote control house code setting. Italiano • Audio stream (switch 5): May be set like that of the main room remote or be set to receive a different audio stream instead. Set switch 5 in the RC-18S accordingly. Nederlands • Room setting (switches 6-9): These must be different from the main room remote and identical to the room settings in the amplifier. Svenska Note: Your RC-18S remote and the SA-2 or SA-3 amplifier switches are set at the factory with identical house codes, with switch 5 set to command audio stream 2, and with room switches set for use in Room B. 4. 4 If your amplifier and remote switches do not match, refer to “How to change the settings, as needed” on page 15. Deciding Where and How Dansk This gives you the choice of listening to any of the 3•2•1 system sound sources or to audio stream 1 or 2 of the LIFESTYLE® system. All it requires is that the two systems be connected. Deutsch This connection requires use of a Bose® link B cable. If you do not yet own one, you can purchase this cable by requesting Part Number 273619 from your authorized Bose dealer. Or, to contact Bose directly, refer to the address list included in the carton with your system. This cable connects to the rear panel of both the 3•2•1 and LIFESTYLE® system media centers as shown (Figure 1). Use the Bose® link jack for this connection. LIFESTYLE® 18 or 28 Series II media center Bose® link B cable Français Connecting 3•2•1 (or 3•2•1 GS) Series II and LIFESTYLE® Series II media centers Bose® link jack Español Figure 1 English With a Series II 3•2•1 or 3•2•1 GS system The 3•2•1 Series II and 3•2•1 GS Series II DVD home entertainment systems are also Bose® link compatible products designed to work with your LIFESTYLE® system. Italiano 3•2•1 (or 3•2•1 GS) Series II media center Bose® link jack 5 Svenska By pressing the Local button, you tell the remote to control your 3•2•1 system. For access to the more advanced features of the 3•2•1 system, however, be sure to use the remote that came with it. Nederlands When the connections are completed, you can operate either system using the RC-18S remote. Deciding Where and How English With older Bose products for expansion Some other Bose products, which you may already own, can also connect to your LIFESTYLE® system. However, if the product you add is not Bose® link compatible, you are limited to expanding your system to one additional room. Dansk How you make this connection will depend on the type of product you have. It could be: • powered speakers, such as an Acoustimass® 5 powered speaker system Deutsch • indoor or outdoor speakers connected to a Bose SA-1 amplifier Español • an earlier system, such as a 3•2•1 Series I system, a Wave® radio or Wave® radio/CD For more information on compatibility and cables, please contact Bose. Refer to the address list provided with your LIFESTYLE® system. For details, refer to “Some simple rules to keep it all straight” on page 12. Français To add more rooms of sound Nederlands Italiano To set up Bose® link products in multiple rooms, you can connect Bose SA-2 and SA-3 amplifiers in a daisychain arrangement. To include more than one non-amplifier solution, such as a 3•2•1 or Wave® product, you need the 50-foot extension/expansion cable from Bose. This cable connects to the Bose® link jack on your system media center, or to the pass through jack on the last connected amplifier. Then, at the other end, its 4-jack connector allows you to connect more products. Svenska To purchase the extension/expansion cable from your authorized Bose dealer, ask for part number 275475-050. Or, to contact Bose directly, refer to the address list provided with your LIFESTYLE® system. 6 Preparing the Remote Getting the remote ready to use Preparing the Remote Deutsch To install batteries 1.

These are the house code, stream selection, and room code switches, explained on page 12. 2. Français As you install the four supplied batteries, match the polarity markings (+ and –) on each one to markings inside the battery compartment (Figure 2). Figure 2 + Polarity marked on the batteries + Dansk Or, you can use it as a secondary remote in the same room with the LIFESTYLE® system instead. To learn how to set switches inside the battery compartment for that purpose, refer to “How to change the settings, as needed” on page 15. English You can use your RC-18S remote control as soon as the batteries are installed. It is pre-set at the factory for use outside the main room where your LIFESTYLE® system is located, in an area where another Bose® system or speaker pair is set up. + + Italiano Nederlands 3.

While it cannot turn these components on or off, it can change the volume, start or stop play, and control other basic operation. Dansk Try it and see. Deutsch Note: With a CD changer connected to your LIFESTYLE® system, commands from the RC-18S remote will affect the current CD, but cannot change to another CD. Two streams, two choices for you When you set up speakers in another room, you have some choices for what those speakers will play. Español Your LIFESTYLE® system provides an exciting set of options for you by offering two independent audio streams. So, even when you are in the other room, you can choose to listen to whatever is playing in the main room, or to another audio source that’s part of the system. Français Two streams are simply the means to these added choices. They can carry audio from the same source or from two sources, like the CD player and the FM tuner at the same time, to a multitude of rooms — up to 15 in all! Italiano So before you use an RC-18S remote control in that other room, you can plan how you want the audio assigned. Main room requirements Nederlands To simplify your choices, some LIFESTYLE® system assignments are fixed, and do not vary. These include: • Stream 1 audio always goes to the main room (Room A) where your LIFESTYLE® system is installed. • Room switches in the primary remote control are always set for use in Room A. Svenska Other room and stream scenarios It is possible for a total of 15 rooms (A - O) to have Bose® link products installed. Here are some other rooms where the Stream 1 audio might be appreciated, if Room A is your living room: 10 Code Switch Setting Audio Stream 1 Listening Area DINING ROOM LIVING ROOM Installed SA-2 amplifier ® Media Center Bose link A cable Dansk Primary remote control RC-18S remote control Deutsch Bose® link A cable E Installed SA-2 amplifier N T R Y H – ROOM C installed speakers & amplifier Bose® 191 installed speakers Français A L L Español ROOM D – installed speakers & amplifier Bose® speakers Bose® link A cable LIFESTYLE® system speakers GUEST BATHROOM Installed SA-2 amplifier RC-18S remote control Italiano RC-18S remote control English ROOM B – Bose® link amplifier and speakers ROOM A – home theater system • Dining area, assigned as Room B • Hallway to the front door, assigned as Room D In this case, here are some rooms you might want to have receive Stream 2, instead (see “Other room and stream scenarios - 2” on page 18): Nederlands • Guest bathroom, assigned as Room C Svenska • Kitchen, assigned as Room E • Den next to kitchen, assigned as Room F • 3-season porch off the kitchen, assigned as Room G • Area around the pool outside, assigned as Room H 11 Code Switch Setting English You can assign a Bose® link compatible device to rooms B through N.

For details, refer to “How to change the settings, as needed” on page 15. Code Switch Setting Some simple rules to keep it all straight Whether you use just one or many RC-18S remotes, keep these guidelines in mind. Español Deutsch Dansk How to make it happen First decide which rooms you want to group to receive the same audio stream. Then adjust the room and stream settings, using the small switches inside the RC-18S remote control battery compartment. • Remote controls for other-room use must be set with: • the same house code as the primary remote. Français • a different room code from the primary remote. Italiano • a different room code from every other RC-18S remote, with one exception. If you want to use the RC-18S in the same room with the primary remote, it must be set for use in Room A, the same as the primary remote. • If the RC-18S remote will be used with Bose® link compatible products, such as: Nederlands • with a Bose® LIFESTYLE® SA-2 or SA-3 amplifier and passive speakers, the amplifier and remote must be set to the same room code. Svenska • with a Bose 3•2•1 Series II or 3•2•1 GS Series II system, the remote and system must be set to the same room code. 12 Code Switch Setting • If the remote will be used with older non-Bose® link products: Additional legacy product rules • To use a Bose LIFESTYLE® stereo amplifier (SA-1), which is set to receive audio stream 2: • To use a Bose Wave® radio, a Wave® radio/CD, Acoustimass® 5 powered speakers, or LIFESTYLE® powered speakers: 13 Svenska – if your expansion product includes a remote control (the Wave radio, for example) set that remote to the maximum volume you want. Then use the RC-18S remote to adjust the volume as needed. Nederlands – set the RC-18S remote in that expansion room for Room O and to receive audio stream 2. Italiano – set the Protocol option under the Media Center feature in the System menu to Legacy. Refer to your system Operation Guide for details on making System menu changes. Français – keep the RC-18S remote set to receive audio stream 2. Español Please note the special rules that apply below. Deutsch With a few special settings, and operational limitations, legacy Bose (and other brand) products can work with your LIFESTYLE® 18 Series II or 28 Series II DVD home entertainment system. They may pre-date the Bose® link system of multi-room expansion, but older speakers and systems can still benefit from its flexibility for renewed performance. Dansk • with a LIFESTYLE® stereo amplifier (SA-1) the RC-18S must be set to Room B so it matches the amplifier room setting.

Code Switch Setting Make sure the house code settings match Dansk English For all of your secondary remote controls to work, the house code in each must match the one in your primary remote. The first four switches define the house code and establish which media center the remote can control.

Usually, you do not need to change these first four switches. Italiano However, in the case of a house code conflict with another nearby LIFESTYLE® system, you can change the house code in the primary remote to resolve the conflict. If you ever use this option, the changed house code must be applied to any expansion remote controls used with this system, too. Nederlands At the factory, each RC-18S remote has its remaining switches set: • To receive audio stream 2 (switch 5) • To be used in Room B (switches 6-9) Svenska To check the settings in your new remote, remove the battery cover to see the small switches just above the batteries. 14 Code Switch Setting How to change the settings, as needed To receive audio stream 1 instead, set switch 5 down. Français If you use more than one RC-18S remote, each one must have unique room switch settings, to operate independent of the others. It must also match the room settings of any Bose® link amplifiers you will control using the RC-18S in that room. Español To set your RC-18S remote for other room use (switches 6-9) Before you change them, the RC-18S room switches are set for its use in Room B (as shown in the table on page 16). Deutsch To receive the same audio stream as the main room Switch 5, the middle switch in the row, is set currently to receive audio stream 2, which is different from the stream heard in the main room (A).
