 | 3·2·1® system tips

1. The placement of your 3·2·1® speakers can dramatically affect the system's sound. Ensure maximum performance with these easy-to-follow guidelines.
Placing the small speakers
• Be sure to face each speaker straight ahead (toward the listening area), so it can cover the broadest listening area.
• Place the speakers on top of the TV or to the left and right of your TV screen.
• Maintain at least 1m of space between the two speakers. Place the speakers up to 1m from the edges of the TV screen. Bose recommends a maximum distance of 1m from each speaker to the edge of the TV screen to prevent the sound from becoming too separated from the picture. You may vary this distance, however, based on room conditions and your personal preference.
• Keep both speakers at approximately the same height.
Placement choices for the ACOUSTIMASS® module
• Place within reach of the cables to the music centre and an AC (mains) power outlet.
• Place at the same end of the room as the TV and the speakers.
• Place a minimum of 1m from the TV to prevent interference from the module, which is not magnetically shielded.
2. Learn how to tune to your favourite and most frequently listened to radio stations using up to 25 presets for both AM and FM.
Storing preferred stations as preset selections
For radio stations that you listen to regularly, you can assign a preset number (1-25 in the AM band and 1-25 in FM) to tune to them quickly.
• Tune to that station using the Tune, Seek or Scan buttons on the remote.
• Press Enter. A preset number between 1 and 5 (it is preset to 2) blinks while STORE? appears on the media centre display.
• Press Enter to store the station to that blinking number.
To erase the station assigned to a particular preset number
• Tune to the preset station.
• Press Enter. The preset number blinks while ERASE? appears on the media centre display.
• Press Enter to remove the station from that assigned preset number. That number is now available for storing a different station.
To select a preset using the settings menu:
• Press  or  on the remote to select the FM or AM source
• Press  . (Make sure your TV is on.)
• Press  to select Preset.
• Press  to step through the preset stations.
3. Prevent children from watching inappropriate subject matter. Here's how to restrict access to specific DVDs by selecting a password and a DVD rating limit.
Using the Parental Control feature to restrict future play
You can restrict playback of DVD films by setting the level of Parental Control. The levels match ratings on each DVD that are equivalent in many cases to standard film ratings provided by the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA). These levels range from 1 (most restrictive) to 8 (least restrictive). By storing a password in the system, you can prevent any changes to the Parental Control setting or the viewing of films rated above the control level without use of the password.
For information on where to find and how to use the Parental Control option, refer to the System Adjustments section in the owners guide. |
