tions” on page 6.
the small connector end of the power cord is inserted firmly into the AC Power jack on the
connection panel and the power pack is plugged securely into a working AC outlet.
the Setup code switches on the connection panel of the transmitter and the receiver are set
identically. There are four options: 1 & 2 up; 1 & 2 down; 1 up & 2 down; 1 down and 2 up.
the Status LEDs are lit a solid green to indicate solid communication between the two parts.
If not, refer to the next Problem in this table.
For the expansion room products, make sure:
the system, amplifier, or powered speaker is plugged in and turned on. On an SA-2 or SA-3
amplifier in that room, make sure the status LED is lit to indicate the amplifier is working.

Above problem
persists and the
Status LED lights
are not green
Move the receiver and transmitter closer together.
Move the receiver, the transmitter or both so the transmission path between them does not
intersect with large metal objects (like a refrigerator), impervious construction materials (like
thick masonry) or other obstructions (like a pool of water).
Check to see if the Status LEDs turn green as a result of the above efforts. For details, refer to
“Check the indicators and settings” on page 8.
Interference with
a WiFi network,
telephone, TV,
microwave oven,
or other electronic
device
For interference with a Wifi network, use the Channel button on the connection panel of the
transmitter to alleviate the problem. For details, refer to “The transmitter Channel button” on
page 9.
For interference with a telephone, TV, microwave oven, or other electronic device:
Move the transmitter or receiver farther from the device
Do not use the audio link and the problem device at the same time
Sound heard in the
expansion room is
not coming from
your media center
or audio source
Change the Setup code switches on both the transmitter and the receiver, making sure they are
identical. This may prevent signals from another AL8 transmitter in the vicinity from reaching your
receiver.
There are four possible switch combinations: 1 & 2 up (as set at the factory); 1 & 2 down; 1 up & 2
down; 1 down & 2 up.
Unexpected sound

center
Change the House code settings in both your LIFESTYLE
®
system and any remote controls you
are using with it.
This may prevent another nearby LIFESTYLE
®
system from affecting the operation of your system.
For further information on House codes and how to change them, refer tothe owner’s guides that
came with your LIFESTYLE
®
system and Bose link remote controls.
