BeoSound 3000 – the fully integrated music system
Whenever you reach out to operate the

We recommend that you follow this
procedure when you set up your
BeoSound 3000:
1 Place the BeoSound 3000 where
you want to use it.
2 Set up your speakers and any
auxiliary equipment.
3 Connect all cables to their sockets
on the rear panel of the BeoSound
3000 – remember not to connect
it to the mains yet!
4 Arrange the cables in the cable
cover grooves and attach the
cover to the rear of the BeoSound.
5 Mount the glass doors.
6 Connect the products to the
mains.
If no permanent FM aerial connection is available,
an indoor aerial may be hooked onto the clamp
on the back of the BeoSound 3000.
How to set up BeoSound 3000
Placing your BeoSound 3000…
•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 pro-
vides you with an overview of all your available
TV programs.

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*.

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.

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.
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.
How to assemble BeoSound 3000
Mount the glass doors
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 cables

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.
Mount the cable cover
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.

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.
The BeoSound 3000 has three different option
settings:
Option 0. Used in a fully integrated Audio/Video
system with no speakers connected to the
BeoSound 3000. The sound is reproduced
through the speakers in the TV, or through
speakers connected to the TV.
Option 1. Used when the BeoSound is used on its
own or in an Audio/Video integrated setup, with
active speakers connected to the BeoSound
3000 (factory setting).
Option 2. Used in a two-room Audio/Video
integrated setup.

Olufsen remote control…

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 adjust-
ments 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.
NOTE! When BeoSound 3000 is used in a fully
integrated Bang & Olufsen Audio/Video system,
sound must be adjusted as described in the guide
for the video system. When you press the
SOUND button, the display will read USE TV.

You can let BeoSound 3000 find the
available radio stations for you, and
then store them on a program
number of your own choice. You
then access the station directly by
keying in the appropriate program
number or stepping through the
stored stations.
You can also key in the exact
frequency of a radio station and
store it under a program number.

easily, you can give them a short
name of your own choice. If you do
not name a station, a name,

The edit function enables you to
program series of tracks for your
individual CDs and memorise them
permanently. Editing a CD means
that you include or exclude each
track on the CD while scanning it as
described on the previous page. So,
whenever you load such an edited
CD, only the selected tracks will be
played. The selected tracks are
played in numerical order. When you
play an edited CD, only the selected
CD tracks are played, and CD ED
appears in the display. However, you
can still choose to play all the tracks
on the CD.
Play favourite CD tracks only
Play or delete a series of tracks
Once you have edited a CD and selected your
own series of tracks, then every time you play
the CD it starts playing the series of tracks you
have chosen. But you can choose to listen to
the entire CD. You can also delete the series
of tracks you have made, to always play the
CD in full.
Select and store a series of tracks
Before making your own series of tracks you
must start playing the CD. If you do not make
a selection of whether to include or exclude
the track being played, the track is auto-
matically included. If you choose to leave the
function before you have included or
excluded all the tracks on the CD, the
remaining tracks will be regarded as excluded.
