Bose av48 media centre

Do you mean the Bose Lifestyle AV48, the main unit in the Lifestyle 48 DVD home entertainment centre? If so, the Installation and Operating manuals are available on the product page: https://www.bose.com/en_us/support/products/5_speaker_home_theater_support/ls48_series1.html#v=ls48_series1_black . The direct link to the operating manual is currently https://assets.bose.com/content/dam/Bose_DAM/Web/consumer_electronics/global/products/speakers/ls38_series1/pdf/opg_en_ls48_series1_ls38_series1.pdf .

I hope this helps.

Yes you would be able to use a non bose amp. All the speakers should have crossovers in them, If you do start at a low volume first, you can blow your speakers if your amp is too big and volume is too high.

check hdmi setting from ur tv and ur dvd connection

1. Insert a DVD which does not work due to region code error, then
2,.- Press right arrow
3.- Press up arrow
4.- Press Shuffle Button
5.- Press Stop Button
6.- Press and HOLD Mute Button

The tray disc will open and the will close.

Thats all....the Bose DVD media will be Multiregion....

Hi, check below the media center/DVD player as to what region your system was fixed into (indicated by a number inside a globe). This is located underneath the unit just beside the serial number. FI the system indicates that your system indeed is set to region-2 then proceed as follows. IF it marks a different number region, then bring the unit to the Bose service center.

Steps in UNLOCKING REGION CODE of media center:

1. Load a DVD and wait for the display to show "REGION CODE ERROR, CONTACT BOSE"
2. Once this comes out, press eject button on your remote control but do not remove DVD disc
3. Press the following button commands in sequence (make sure they are in sequence and are pressed by looking into the media center display where a small green dot should blink indicating that each command is received).
4. First you need to initiate the system region change on the remote control:
a.while the tray is out and the DVD is still in the tray, press and release "RIGHT" arrow button
b. then press and release "UP" arrow button
c. after, press and release "SHUFFLE" button
d. then press and release "STOP" (black square symbol) button
e. lastly, press and release "MUTE" button and system should go on mute (indicated in the LCD display

After this, you now can change the region code by doing the following button press on your remote control:
1. While the DVD tray is out still and the DVD disc is in the tray, press and release "STOP" button (black square mark)
2. Press and release "SHUFFLE" button
3. Press and release number "0" button on numeric keypad
4. Lastly, press and release "ENTER" button on your remote control and the DVD tray should go back inside the DVD. The disc then should start loading and playing resumes.
5. Allow the DVD disc to run for a few minutes (if you want enjoy a full movie) to keep the region change resident before switching off again.

Now enjoy your Bose Lfiestyle DVD System REGION FREE!!!

Do note, this does not apply to Bose DVD system that are locked to region-1

Glad to be of service always!

Did you select TV input on your AV38 Bose system and same thing for VCR. it should work unless from your TV audio if you watching HD signals some of the program had copy protection so it turn off the video and audio out at your TV output monitor that for TV
For VCR it must work make sure you select VCR input on your AV38

1.- Insert Region 2 disc (an error message will appears)
with the remote control...
2,.- Press right arrow
3.- Press up arrow
4.- Press Shuffle Button
5.- Press Stop Button
6.- Press and HOLD Mute Button

The tray disc will open and the will close.

Thats all....the Bose DVD media will be Multiregion....

your media centre and sa-3 are from two different countries they work on radio wavs, if the amp and media centre are different they will never work sell the amp and buy one that is the same region code as your media centre

turn off the accoustimas, unplug the power code from the accoustimas and the media center and leave it for 15 sec. Then, plug the power code onto the accoustimas and turn it on. then plug the power code of the media center on. Turn media center on.

hope this helps
