Features and benefits
• Incorporates HDMITM (High Definition Multimedia Interface) technology to help maximize
your home theater experience.

cable/satellite box, VCR or other A/V input devices.

How it fits into your LIFESTYLE system
Video
Video
Video outputs from all your A/V devices, such as your cable/satellite box and VCR, connect
to the VS-2, but the audio outputs from these devices connect to the media center. The
VS-2 video output connects to your TV. When you select a source, such as your cable box
(CBL-SAT), the media center selects the cable box audio and directs the VS-2 to pass the
cable box video through to your TV.

Connecting the VS-2 to Your Media Center
Preparation
Media center rear panel
When setting up a LIFESTYLE® system with the VS-2, the media center
power supply plugs into the VS-2 instead of the media center.
• If you are setting up the VS-2 and your LIFESTYLE system at the
same time, find the media center power supply in the LIFESTYLE sys-
tem carton before you begin.
• If you are adding the VS-2 to an existing LIFESTYLE system, turn
off your LIFESTYLE system, wait 30 seconds, and unplug the media cen-
ter power supply from the wall outlet. Then, disconnect the power supply
from the rear panel of the media center. Also, remove any video cables
from the Video OUT and Video IN connectors on the media center.

YOU FOR THE PRODUCT. IN NO EVENT SHALL BOSE BE LIABLE FOR SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL,
CONSEQUENTIAL OR INDIRECT DAMAGES. SOME PLACES DO NOT ALLOW LIMITATIONS ON THE
EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF RELIEF, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR INDIRECT
DAMAGES OF THE LIMITATION OF LIABILITY TO SPECIFIED AMOUNTS, SO THE ABOVE LIMITA-
TIONS OR EXCLUSIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
All parts defective in material and workmanship. This limited warranty for the LIFESTYLE® VS-2 Video
Enhancer covers the functionality of the system for its normal, intended use as specified in the
Owner’s Guide and does not cover a malfunction that has resulted from improper or unreasonable use
or maintenance, accident, excess moisture, improper packing, lightning, power surges, or unautho-
rized tampering, alteration or modification while not under the control of Bose. Bose® systems are not
designed to be used in every environment, so please review your Owner’s Guide.
WHERE PERMITTED, THE PROVISIONS OF THIS LIMITED WARRANTY ARE IN LIEU OF ANY OTHER
WRITTEN WARRANTY, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, WRITTEN OR ORAL, INCLUDING ANY
WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
Notwithstanding the above, in the United States, where applicable, if you qualify as a “consumer”
under the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, then you may be entitled to any implied warranties allowed
by law for the period of the express Limited Warranty as set forth below. Some states do not allow lim-
itations on how long an implied Limited Warranty lasts, so the above limitation may not apply to you.
OTHER CONDITIONS:
FOR YOUR BENEFIT, WE RECOMMEND THAT YOU RECORD YOUR SERIAL NUMBERS(S), FOUND
ON THE PRODUCT(S), AND OTHER PURCHASE INFORMATION, AND KEEP IT WITH YOUR PER-
SONAL RECORDS ALONG WITH PROOF OF PURCHASE. IF NECESSARY, THIS INFORMATION
WILL ALLOW US TO BETTER SERVE YOUR NEEDS.

YOU MAY ALSO HAVE OTHER LEGAL RIGHTS WHICH APPLY TO THE PRODUCT YOU HAVE
ACQUIRED. THESE LEGAL RIGHTS VARY FROM STATE TO STATE OR COUNTRY TO COUNTRY.
SOME PLACES DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION, RESTRICTION OR MODIFICATION OF CERTAIN
IMPLIED RIGHTS OR THEIR EFFECT. IN THOSE SITUATIONS THIS LIMITED WARRANTY WILL ONLY
APPLY TO THE EXTENT THAT THE APPLICABLE LAW ALLOWS. OTHER LAWS PROVIDE YOU WITH
A STATUTORY CLAIM AGAINST THE SELLER.
For how long:
In countries where the duration of the warranty is not determined by statute, the Bose Limited War-
ranty lasts one year from the purchase date. For countries where minimum warranty terms are deter-
mined by statute, the warranty term is the longer of the statutory period or the term listed above.
What we will do:
At our option, we will repair or replace any defective parts within a reasonable period of time and free
of charge.
