Remote issues What to do
Remote does not control your
TV, VCR, cable/satellite box, or
other external component
Make sure correct codes are set. See “Setting the remote to control your TV and other devices” on
page 40.
Make sure the front of the media center is not obstructed. The IR emitter that sends commands to your
external components is below the disc tray.
If you still cannot control your external components successfully, you may need to connect the external
IR emitter, included with your system, to the IR EMITTER jack on the rear panel of the media center. See
“IR emitter cable as an option” in your Installation Guide.
Remote behaves erratically or
does not work
If this occurs when a plasma
TV is on, see the issue below.
Check batteries and their polarity (+ and –).
Make sure the VS-2/media center input and output cords are securely connected, uncoiled, and
extended to their full length.
Make sure the VS-2 cable between the VS-2 and the media center is securely connected, uncoiled, and
straightened as much as possible.
If you are using a plasma-screen TV, make sure the media center power source is as far away from the
TV as possible.
Move the remote (or the media center) a few feet to avoid an area of “dead spots.”
Make sure the remote control and media center house codes match.

Customer Service for assistance.
With a plasma-screen TV
turned on, the remote behaves
erratically
Momentarily disconnect the video cable (composite, S-Video, or component) and see if remote perfor-
mance improves.
If performance improves, the problem may be remedied by obtaining “ferrite chokes” and placing them
on the cable to draw away the interference. To purchase the chokes, contact Bose Customer Service for
assistance.
