Important Safety Instructions
18.Use Proper Power Sources – Plug the product into a proper power source, as described in the operating instructions or as marked on the product.
19.Avoid Power Lines – Use extreme care when installing an outside antenna system to keep from touching power lines or circuits, as contact with them may be fatal. Do not install external antennas near overhead power lines or other electric light or power circuits, nor where an antenna can fall into such circuits or power lines.
20.Ground All Outdoor Antennas – If an external antenna or cable system is connected to this product, be sure the antenna or cable system is grounded. This will provide some protection against voltage surges and built-up static charges.
Section 810 of the National Electrical Code ANSI/ NFPA No. 70 provides information with respect to proper grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of grounding conductors, location of antenna-discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements for the ground electrode. Refer to the antenna grounding illustration on this page.

A Brief Introduction to Some Special Features
Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the Bose® Wave® radio ,,, an elegant way to bring high quality sound into any room.
Over fourteen years of research by Bose Corporation brings you the benefits of award-winning patented acoustic waveguide speaker technology.
