What happened

Bose is recalling dual-voltage CineMate Series II and CineMate GS Series II home theater speaker systems because a component in the bass module can fail when the system is used outside the U.S. in electrical outlets rated at 220 volts or higher, creating a fire hazard. The recalled systems are designed to work with both U.S. 120-volt outlets and European 220-volt or higher outlets. Each system includes two black speakers, one bass module, a remote control, an interface module, and accessories. The affected models have product codes 051365, 051470, or 057971, which appear as the first six digits of the serial number on the label on the back of the bass module.

Consumers who own an affected dual-voltage CineMate II system should immediately stop using it and unplug it. They should then contact Bose to arrange for a free repair or replacement of the bass module.
