Connecting to a cable radio provider

Some cable TV providers make FM radio signals available through the cable service to your
home. This connection is made to the external FM jack on the back panel of the media cen-
ter. To connect to this service, contact your cable TV provider for assistance.
Note: Make sure that the cable radio installation includes a signal splitter so that only the FM
radio band, not the cable TV band, is received by the media center. If necessary, contact a quali-
fied installer.

Making audio connections

Connect the left (L) and right (R) audio outputs on the rear panel of your TV to the L and R TV
audio inputs on the rear panel of the media center (Figure 4).

Making video connections

These connections will vary according to the type of cable you use as described below.
Composite video
If you are using a composite video connection, connect the COMPOSITE video output on the
rear panel of the media center to the VIDEO INPUT on the rear panel of your TV (Figure 4).
S-video
The S-VIDEO OUTPUT provides a higher quality picture on your TV than the COMPOSITE
VIDEO OUTPUT. This jack is provided on many TVs. To make this connection you will need to
use an S-video cable between your system and TV.
Component video
Some newer televisions are equipped with component video input jacks. Component video
consists of three separate video signals (Y, Pb, and Pr) which deliver a very high quality pic-
ture to your TV.
To make component video connections, you will need video-grade cables for the Y, Pb,
and Pr jacks and the Bose
S-VIDEO and COMPOSITE outputs. Your system will send the correct signals to these jacks
when you change the video output setting to YPbPr. See your LIFESTYLE
guide for instructions on how to change system settings.
Note: Component video jacks are often color-coded and it is essential that you match the color-
coded connections with the cables.
