4gçpYOUR SL2 WIRELESS SURROUND LINKGetting readyThank you for choosing a Bose® SL2 Wireless Surround Link. It provides a simple and convenient means to enjoy the surround sound from your LIFESTYLE® system or powered Acoustimass® system.The SL2 features a small radio frequency transmitter and receiver pair that delivers the left and right surround audio signals, complete with amplification, to surround speakers in the rear of your room. Running cable from the front to the back of the room is unnecessary.Unpacking the cartonCarefully unpack the carton and save all packing materials, which provide the most secure way to transport the product. Check to be sure your system includes all of the parts shown (Figure 1). If any part appears damaged, do not attempt to use it. Notify Bose or your authorized Bose dealer immediately. For Bose contact information, refer to the address sheet included in the carton.Figure 1Carton contents220 VAC power cord(Europe)Transmitter power packSL2 transmitter SL2 receiverOwner’s guideSurround speaker cables20-ft (6.2 m) Receiver power packJewel Cube® speaker adaptersTransmitter cable6-ft (1.8 m)A box with dotted lines identifies parts that vary with different product versions or in different countries.240 VAC power cord(Australia)120 VAC (U.S./Canada)230 VAC power cord(U.K./Singapore)240 VAC power cord(Australia)220 VAC power cord(Europe)230 VAC power cord(U.K./Singapore)120 VAC (U.S./Canada)
5YOUR SL2 WIRELESS SURROUND LINKgçpIf you have not yet done so, now is a good time to find the serial number on the bottom of the SL2 transmitter, then copy it in the space provided on “For your records” on page 3.Setting the transmitter for your systemIf your speakers are part of an Acoustimass® speaker system, you need to set the switch on the bottom of the SL2 transmitter to Other (Figure 2).Figure 2Speaker switch For use of a LIFESTYLE® system with the SL2 Wireless Surround Link, the current default switch setting is optimal. There is no need to change the setting.Important note: Running the ADAPTiQ® audio calibration system, which is provided with your LIFESTYLE® system, helps ensure the most accurate sound from your system. Be sure to use it after the SL2 is connected and your surround speakers are in the final position.Choosing positions for your SL2 transmitter and receiverRadio frequency transmissions make this product easy to place. It is seldom necessary to point the SL2 transmitter at its receiver. This allows you to hide both from view if you like.The SL2 transmitter, identified on the label, is also distinguished by a single input jack (see Figure 3 on page 6). The SL2 receiver, which is also labeled, has two output jacks.1. Place the SL2 transmitter within 61/2 feet (2 meters) of the Acoustimass® module. Make sure it is within reach of an AC (mains) outlet. 2. Place the SL2 receiver at the same end of the room as your surround speakers. It, too, should be within reach of an AC (mains) outlet.Position the transmitter/receiver pair:•From 61/2 feet (2 meters) to 30 feet (9.2 meters) apart.• Where the sides are unobstructed to allow for ventilation.• Upright (neither upside down nor on a side) on the floor or other flat, stable surface.Note: If you experience any problem with communications between the SL2 transmitter and receiver, positioning them within line of sight to each other may be helpful. For further suggestions on how to deal with such problems, refer to “Troubleshooting” on page 9.Bottom of the SL2 transmitterSwitch

8YOUR SL2 WIRELESS SURROUND LINKgçpTo adapt the surround speaker cable for Jewel Cube® speakersFollow these steps before you connect the provided surround speaker cable to your Jewel Cube® speakers.1. Loosen the screws on the Jewel Cube® speaker adapter so you can insert the two-wire ends into its terminals. • Insert the plain wire (–) into the plain terminal.• Insert the red-banded wire (+) into the red terminal.2. Tighten the screws (Figure 6).Figure 6Using the adapter with a Jewel Cube speakerUsing this cable with the adapters attached, follow the steps in “To make the receiver connections” on page 7. Be sure to match each adapter to the proper speaker, right or left.What the Status LEDs indicateOn the rear of the SL2 transmitter and receiver, the color of the Status LED indicates how each unit is functioning. The indicators include:• Blinking green: the power pack is plugged in and the unit is searching for a signal.• Solid green: the receiver and transmitter are communicating with each other. This green LED stays lit for several minutes after you turn off your system.• Solid orange: in sleep mode for low power use when there is no signal to communicate.• Blinking red: the SL2 receiver is too hot, or there is a problem with the surround speaker cable connection between the SL2 receiver and the speakers.For information on how to deal with a blinking red LED, see “Troubleshooting” on page 9.Red terminal screwRed bandJewel CubespeakerAdapter on wire
9YOUR SL2 WIRELESS SURROUND LINKgçpTroubleshootingContacting Customer ServiceFor additional help in solving problems, contact Bose Customer Service. Refer to the address sheet included in the carton.Problem What to doBlinking red Status LED on either the SL2 transmitter or receiver• Disconnect the unit from the AC power outlet.• Remove any possible obstruction to ventilation and reposition the unit upright with clear space around the ventilation openings on each side. If the ventilation was obstructed, allow the unit a few minutes to cool before reconnecting it to the AC power outlet.• If it continues to blink red, check the cable connection between the SL2 receiver and the surround speakers. Make sure the connections are secure and the cable wires are not touching each other, which can cause a short circuit. Refer to “Connecting the SL2 receiver” on page 7. Reconnect the unit to the AC power outlet.• If it continues to blink red, unplug the unit from the power outlet and contact Bose® Customer Service. Refer to the address list included in the SL2 carton.No sound or intermittent sound• Make sure the audio source is playing and the program selected includes surround sound audio.• Check to be sure both the SL2 transmitter and receiver power packs are properly plugged into functioning AC power outlets. Refer to “Making the connections” on page 6.• Make sure that cables are properly connected to the SL2 transmitter, the Acoustimass® module, the SL2 receiver, and the surround speakers. The connectors must be inserted securely in the jacks.• Make sure the SL2 transmitter and receiver are no less than 61/2 feet (2 meters) and no more than 30 feet (9.2 meters) apart.• Locate the small opening labeled Reset on the bottom of both the SL2 transmitter and the SL2 receiver. Insert a fine-pointed tool (like a straightened paper clip), into the small opening on the transmitter and then, within 30 seconds, on the receiver. • Move the receiver, the transmitter, or both so the transmission path between them does not intersect with large metal objects in your room or other obstructions (like a fish tank full of water). When the problem is resolved, the Status LEDs turn a solid green.Interference with a wireless (5.8GHz) phone • Increase the distance from each SL2 unit to the phone.• Press the channel button on the phone (if one is provided) to choose a different channel for phone transmissions.
