Setting Up

Connecting the antennas

The rear panel of your multi-room interface provides connections for the supplied AM and FM antennas (Figure 11). Untie and straighten the bundled wires on each antenna. Antennas provide better reception when their wires are fully extended.

FM antenna connections

1.Plug the FM antenna connector into the FM ANTENNA jack on the back of the interface.

2.Spread out the antenna arms. Experiment with both the placement and the angle of this antenna to provide optimum FM reception.

Note: A central antenna or cable, or an outdoor FM antenna, may be used with the multi- room interface antenna connections. To install an outdoor antenna, consult a qualified installer. Follow all safety instructions.

AM antenna connections

Note: To install the AM antenna on a wall, follow the instr uctions enclosed with the antenna.

1.Plug the AM antenna microplug into the AM ANTENNA jack on the interface.

2.Stand the loop antenna on the base, following the instructions enclosed with the antenna.

3.Move the loop part of the antenna as far away from the multi-room interface as possible, but at least 20 inches (50 cm) away, and at least 4 feet (1.2 m) from the Acoustimass® module. Experiment with the orientation of the loop for optimum AM reception.

Connecting to a cable radio signal

To connect your system to the FM signal available from some cable TV companies, contact your cable provider for assistance. The connection is made to the FM 75EXTERNAL antenna connector on the back of the interface.

CAUTION: Be certain that the installation includes a signal splitter so that only the FM band, not the cable TV band, is transmitted to the system. It is necessary to use a splitter that filters the signal to prevent any re-emissions of the TV spectrum through the system.

Users also appreciate the intuitive touch controls located on the ear cups, making it easy to play, pause, or skip tracks without needing to retrieve devices.

Battery life is another crucial feature, with the Bose 40 offering up to 20 hours of playback on a single charge. Rapid charging capabilities ensure that users can enjoy up to 3.5 hours of playtime with just a 15-minute charge, making it an excellent companion for on-the-go lifestyles.
