Connection overview

Note: The Companion

5 system does not have an AC power switch. The system turns on in

Standby mode when you plug in the power cord. See “System modes” on page 16.

Note:

Bose recommends using a safety agency-approved surge protector on all electronic

equipment. Voltage variations and spikes can damage electronic components in any system.

A quality suppressor can eliminate the vast majority of failures attributed to surges and may be

purchased at electronics stores.
