Setting Up Your Wave® Radio
Connecting other components
You can use your Wave radio to improve the sound of a CD player, tape player, or TV. You can also use your radio as extension speakers for a Bose® Lifestyle® music system. Connect one of these components to the right and left AUX IN jacks.
To play your radio through external speakers, connect Bose powered speakers to the radio’s right and left VARIABLE OUT jacks. Audio cables for these connections are available at elec- tronics stores, or by calling Bose Product and Technical Support.
Most audio cables are color coded. Match the red plug to the R (red) jack and the black or white plug to the L (white) jack (Figure 7).
Note: Connecting components or speakers to the VARIABLE OUT jacks shuts off the radio speakers.

Using other components
Select your CD player, tape player, or other auxiliary source by pressing the AUX button. Adjust the listening volume with the Volume buttons. Control all other functions, including on/ off, at the source, referring to its owner’s manual, if necessary.
Control your auxiliary powered speakers from the Wave radio. If these speakers have a vol- ume control, you may use it.
Note: Recording from your Wave radio is not recommended. Connecting a tape recorder to the VARIABLE OUT jacks shuts off the radio speakers, preventing you from monitoring the recording volume.
