Setting Up

Before you begin

Thank you for purchasing the Bose® Wave® Radio/CD.

Fourteen years of research by Bose Corporation bring you the benefits of award-winning patented acoustic waveguide speaker technology. Using this technology, a tube efficiently transfers energy from a small loudspeaker to the outside air over a whole range of bass notes. And, by folding long waveguides into intricate patterns, they fit into products small enough to be placed comfortably in your home. There is a 27-inch (68-cm) long waveguide inside the Wave Radio/CD’s compact enclosure, enabling this tabletop system to produce room-filling sound with full, rich bass.

Your Wave Radio/CD includes:

Integrated system design for high acoustic quality requiring no complex adjustments

A high performance stereo tuner with 6 AM and 6 FM station presets

A CD player including skip, scan, random, repeat, and programming features

Two independent alarms, with battery backup power to save the settings for wakeup during a power loss

A credit card-size infrared remote control with optional mounting strip

Inputs for an additional sound source, such as a TV, VCR, computer, or tape player

To discover how easy it is to use your new Wave Radio/CD, follow the steps on the Quick Set Up Guide and play the demonstration CD. Like most functions, it can be done with the press of a single button. Some special functions are available by pressing button combinations (for details, see page 28).

To fully appreciate all of these features, please take the time to follow this owner’s guide carefully. It helps you set up and operate your system, and enjoy its high-fidelity sound.
