Preparation
Unpacking
Carefully unpack the speakers. Save all packing materials, which provide the safest means to
transport your speakers as needed. If any part of the speaker pair appears damaged, do not
use the pair. Notify Bose or your authorized Bose
®
dealer immediately. For Bose contact infor-
mation, refer to the address list included in the carton.
Check to be sure the carton includes all the parts shown in Figure 2.
Note:
Now is a good time to find the serial numbers on the side of each speaker. Copy those
numbers onto your warranty card and in the “For your records” space on page 3.
