Setting up the system:

Powering on or off

  1. On the back of the system, push the power switch to the up postion (on) or middle position (off). Use the down position for quick charging if using the optional accessory battery.

Making connections

Inputs 1 and 2
  1. Set the ToneMatch switch according to the connected source:
    1. Choose the middle position when connecting an acoustic guitar
    2. Choose the right position when connecting a microphone for voice
    3. Choose the left/OFF position when connecting a source other than a vocal microphone or acoustic guitar
  2. Connect the source using a 1/4" or XLR cable
    1. Note: The Input 1 jack is a mono combination jack that accepts 1/4" TS or XLR plugs
  3. If the source device has a volume control, adjust it to the desired level
  4. Adjust the sytem's VOLUME control knob to the desired level
  5. Adjust the BASS, TREBLE and REVERB knobs to the desired level. Set these knobs to the center for a neutral setting

Input 3
  1. Connect either a wireless Bluetooth® device or a wired audio device
    Note: The AUX jack and Bluetooth cannot be used simultaneously. When the AUX jack is connected, Bluetooth is disabled:
    • Connect wired stereo audio devices to the system's stereo 3.5 mm AUX jack
    • Connect a Bluetooth device by holding the Bluetooth button until it flashes white, then select the Bose system in the Bluetooth device's Bluetooth settings
  2. Set the device's volume level to about 80%
  3. Set the Input 3 volume level on Bose system to the desired level
    Note: the device and the Bose volume controls affect the device's volume heard from the Bose system. For best results, set the device volume to about 80%, then use the Bose volume control for the desired volume.

The speaker can be positioned flat vertically, tilted back / angled upward vertically or tilted back / angled upward horizonally.

Additionally, the bottom of the speaker includes an adapter for mounting on a speaker stand that has a 35 mm pole.

Connecting additional speakers
