POWER SUPPLY
A 20 Volt, 40 Watt switching power supply is provided. The power supply is intended to plug
directly into an AC outlet rather than using an AC line cord. This universal power supply can be
used with any standard power distribution network including 90 volts to 240 volts and 50 Hz to 60
Hz.
There are two version of the power supply, they were developed independently and therefore
have different electrical designs. Outwardly they look very similar. Separate from the power
supply will be one or more sets of clips – also referred to as prongs, plugs, or adapters. The
clips connect to the power supply housing and interface to the local AC power socket conven-
tion.
There are seven different types of clips:
• North America
• EU
• China
• UK
• Australia
• Korea
• Argentina
The two different supplies do not have the same mechanical interface for the clips – clips from
one version of the supply cannot be used on the other. It is easy to tell them apart: one uses a
circular clip design and the other uses a rectangular clip design. The combination of two ver-
sions, two colors and seven regions results in a total of 28 different clips. The power supply is
not serviceable.
REMOTE CONTROL
An infrared remote control is included. It uses the same battery that is used with our credit card
style remote controls: CR2032. The infrared codes used for this remote control do not overlap
with those used for other Bose products. The remote control is not serviceable.
