Using the SOURCE buttons

The seven source buttons provide direct access to the three built-in sources (FM, AM, CD) and up to four external components connected to the system. The Lifestyle® system can select an external component and adjust the volume, but it cannot turn a connected compo- nent on or off.

Use the SOURCE button to show or hide the source buttons.

Using the KEYPAD buttons

The numeric buttons provide direct access to commonly used features of the three built-in sources (FM, AM, CD). The or arrow symbol to the left or right of the KEYPAD button indicates whether you are using the keypad for presets or tuning (in FM or AM mode), or selecting disc or track (in CD mode).

Use the KEYPAD button to show or hide the keypad buttons and select PRESET or TUNE, or DISC or TRACK.

Using the current status display

The center of the touchscreen displays information about the current status of the system. The top of the status area indicates which source is selected or if the power is off. The next three lines let you set tuner or CD functions, using the or arrow buttons to adjust the settings. The center area also includes indication of CD modes such as RANDOM and REPEAT, or if the SLEEP function is on.

40 specifications

The Bose 40 is an exceptional headphone model that offers an immersive audio experience, catering to audiophiles and casual listeners alike. Known for its remarkable sound quality, the Bose 40 incorporates advanced engineering and innovative technologies to deliver rich, balanced audio.

One of its standout features is the Active Noise Cancelling (ANC) technology. This system uses microphones inside and outside the ear cups to detect ambient noise, effectively cancelling it out for a serene listening environment. Whether you are commuting, traveling, or simply enjoying music at home, the ANC capability ensures you remain undisturbed by outside distractions.

The Bose 40 headphones also feature a proprietary TriPort Acoustic headphone structure, which enhances low-frequency performance without compromising mids or highs. This design ensures that users enjoy a full spectrum of sound, making every listening session a pleasure. The combination of dynamic drivers and a precise acoustic port embedded within the ear cups results in a sound that is both powerful and precise.

Comfort is a critical aspect of the Bose 40 design. The ear cups are crafted from soft materials that provide a snug fit, allowing for extended listening without discomfort. Additionally, the headband is carefully designed with cushioning, making these headphones suitable for prolonged use whether for work or leisure.

With Bluetooth connectivity, the Bose 40 headphones support seamless pairing with a wide array of devices, from smartphones to tablets and laptops. The headphone comes equipped with voice assistant integration, allowing quick access to Siri, Google Assistant, or Alexa. 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.

In terms of build quality, the Bose 40 is sturdy yet lightweight, making it easy to carry around. The foldable design is perfect for travel, fitting neatly into protective carrying cases.

All these features come together to make the Bose 40 a leading choice in the headphone market, appealing to listeners who seek top-tier audio quality combined with comfort, modern technology, and longevity.
