We recommend that you follow this procedure when you set up your BeoSound 3000:
1Place the BeoSound 3000 where you want to use it.
2Set up your speakers and any auxiliary equipment.
3Connect all cables to their sockets on the rear panel of the BeoSound 3000 – remember not to connect it to the mains yet!
4Arrange the cables in the cable cover grooves and attach the cover to the rear of the BeoSound.
5Mount the glass doors.
6Connect the products to the mains.
•Make sure that the BeoSound 3000 is set up, placed and connected, in accordance with the instructions in this guide.
•Place your BeoSound 3000 on a firm surface, preferably on the table, sideboard or stand where you want it placed permanently.
•The BeoSound 3000 is designed for indoor use in dry, domestic environments only, and for use within a temperature range of 10–40º C (50–105º F).
•Avoid placing the system in direct sunlight, near radiators or other sources of heat.
•Allow a space of at least 5cm above and to each side of the BeoSound 3000 for adequate ventilation. Remember to leave enough space at the sides for the glass doors to open.
•If you want to hang the BeoSound 3000 on a wall, make sure that you use the correct size and type of screws and wall plugs for mounting the wall bracket (optional accessory) and the BeoSound. The type of screws and wall plugs will depend on the material and construction of the wall.
•Do not switch on the mains for any products in your system, until after you have connected all the cables (see opposite page, p. 7).
The program list for TV is now called up. It provides you with an overview of all your available TV programs.
If no permanent FM aerial connection is available, an indoor aerial may be hooked onto the clamp on the back of the BeoSound 3000.
You can use your BeoSound 3000 in a stand-alone setup or connected to a Bang & Olufsen video system using the Master Link cable. The Master Link socket on the back of BeoSound 3000 can also be used for BeoLink distribution. The BeoLink system allows you to listen to the BeoSound 3000 in any room you like, via extra speakers*.
Use the diagram and the graphics imprinted on the socket panel for reference, when locating the sockets.
Please do not connect the BeoSound to the mains until you have finished the setting-up procedure.

Aerial Auxiliary equipment
Connect your FM aerial to the socket marked FM and your AM aerial, if any, to the socket marked AM.
When using an AM loop aerial, tune in to the radio station you want, then turn the aerial horisontally until you receive the best possible signal.
Loudspeakers
Connect your active speakers to the sockets marked POWER LINK.
You may choose to loop the signals through from speaker to speaker, please refer to the User’s guide for your BeoLab loudspeakers, or you may connect one speaker to each of the two sockets.
Remember to set the L • R • LINE switch on the BeoLab speakers to L and R (left and right), respectively.
Note: If you wish to connect the BeoLab 2500 loudspeakers, please refer to the guide supplied with the speakers
Connect your auxiliary equipment to the socket marked AUX. This socket enables you to use compatible Bang & Olufsen equipment, e.g. an audio tape recorder or a record player. The socket may also accommodate equipment of other makes.
BeoLink connection
The socket marked MASTER LINK should be used when you connect your BeoSound 3000 and a compatible Bang & Olufsen video system.
Mains supply
Plug the mains lead into the socket marked ~, but do not switch on at the mains yet.
*NOTE! Please contact a Bang & Olufsen retailer for further information on the BeoLink system and information on auxiliary equipment.

When you have finished the setting up procedure, described on the previous page, you must mount the glass doors and the cable cover.
The labels on the back of the glass doors indicate which end should be pointing upwards, and which side of the glass door should point towards the middle of the BeoSound 3000.
•Fasten the two glass doors, one at a time, to the front of the BeoSound 3000 by pressing their fastening points into the corresponding fastening sockets on the BeoSound.
•Press gently on each of the fastening points until you hear a click. The click indicates that the glass doors are mounted properly.
Arrange the connector cables in the cable cover as shown to the right. You can fasten the cables with tape to keep them in place before you mount the cable cover to the rear of BeoSound 3000.
Fasten the cover – with the cables attached – to the grill on the BeoSound rear panel:
a Insert the bottom row of pegs into the grill. b Push the top row of pegs into the grill.
c Pull the cable cover upwards until the pegs fit properly with the grill.
Note: Do not plug in the cables before the cable cover is mounted
NOTE! Treat the glass doors with great care. If they are cracked or chipped, or damaged in any other way, they should be replaced immediately as they could otherwise cause bodily harm.
You can order replacement doors through a Bang & Olufsen retailer.

When you have connected your BeoSound 3000 to the mains, you must make sure that it is set up to function with the other products you have connected, if any. This means that you must programme the BeoSound 3000 option. If you have only connected speakers to the BeoSound, you do not have to make this programming.

All sound levels are set to neutral values from the factory, but you can make your own sound adjustments and store them.
If you store a volume level, BeoSound 3000 will start playing at this level each time you switch it on.
The BeoSound 3000 also features a loudness function which you can activate or deactivate as you like. The loudness function makes the music more dynamic. It compensates for the human ear’s lack of sensitivity to high and low frequencies when listening to low music.
If you do not store the sound adjustments you make, BeoSound 3000 will return to the preset sound levels once you switch it off.
If you only want to adjust volume, simply press the buttons or directly to turn the volume up or down.
You can adjust the volume, bass and treble levels or alter the balance between the left and right speakers of the BeoSound. This function enables you to direct the sound emerging from the speakers towards your favourite listening position.
