Before you begin
The Bose
®
Acoustimass
®
5 Series III speaker system offers many advantages over conven-
tional speakers. For one, the system adjusts to deliver the best combination of direct and
reflected sound for your listening environment and musical taste. And this Virtually Invisible
®
speaker system requires very little space to deliver a lifelike musical performance formerly
associated with room-dominating loudspeakers.
Sections 1 – 5 give you step-by-step instructions on how to set up and connect the system
to your components, so you can begin enjoying it as soon as possible. The remaining sec-
tions provide more detailed information on arranging your system for the best possible
performance.
1. Unpacking the carton
Unpack your system and familiarize yourself with the parts identified in Figure 1. If any part of
the product appears damaged, do not attempt to use the system. Repack it in the original
carton and notify Bose or your authorized Bose dealer immediately.
• Remove any staples from the opened carton flaps.
• Remove the inner cartons containing the two cube speaker arrays.
• Gently roll the carton over onto its side and then onto its opening.
• Carefully lift the carton from around the Acoustimass module and packing cushions.
WARNING:
The Acoustimass module weighs 18.8 pounds (8.5 kg).
Use good lifting
practice to avoid injury.
WARNING:
To avoid danger of suffocation, keep the plastic bags out of the reach of
children.
Note:
Now is a good time to record the serial number of these speakers on page 3 of this
guide and on your warranty card. It is a good idea to save all packing materials for possible
future use.
