Information about products that generate electrical noise
If applicable, this equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interfer­ence in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accor­dance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, this is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, you are encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
Increase the separation between the equip-
ment and receiver.
Connect the equipment to an outlet on a different circuit than the one to which the receiver is connected.
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Note:
Unauthorized modification of the receiver or radio remote control could void the user’s authority to operate this equipment.
This product complies with the Canadian ICES­003 Class B specifications.

Important Safety Information
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.
Antenna grounding
Example of antenna grounding as per National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70.
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 informaiton with respect to proper grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead­in wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of grounding conductors, location of antenna­discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements for the ground electrode. Refer to the antenna grounding illustration on this page.

Note to CATV system installer
This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer’s attention to Article 820-40 of the NEC (of USA) that provides guidelines for proper ground­ing. In particular, it specifies that the cable ground shall be connected to the grounding system of the building, as close to the point of cable entry as is practical.

Setting Up Your Acoustic Wave® Music System
Selecting a location for your music system
As with any high-performance sound system, the tonal quality of your Acoustic Wave experiment, but keep in mind that this system was designed to sound best when placed on a shelf, counter, desk, or table top, 30 to 48 inches (75 ­120 cm) from the floor. It should be near the center of a wall and 6 inches (15 cm), or less, away from the wall. To increase bass response, move the unit toward any corner of the room; to decrease bass response, move it away from the corner.

Installing the remote control battery
Your remote control may be one of two types (Figure 2A or 2B). Each is identified by the way the battery compartment unlocks to install or replace the battery.
1. Place the remote control face down on a flat surface.
2. If your remote has a slot on the back (Figure 2A), follow step A. Other­wise, follow step B and refer to Figure 2B:
A. Insert the tip of a ballpoint pen into the slot. Push to the side as
shown and hold. Slide the battery compartment open with your finger.
B. Using your finger, push the tab lock to the side as shown and hold.
Slide the battery compartment open.
3. Keeping the remote control face down, insert the new battery into the compartment with the + symbol facing up.
4. Gently slide the battery compartment closed. It locks automatically.

Setting Up Your Acoustic Wave® Music System
WARNING:
Mishandling the remote control battery may cause a fire or
chemical burn. Keep the battery away from children. Do not recharge, disassemble, heat above 212˚F (100˚C), or incinerate
the battery. Dispose of the used battery promptly and responsibly. Replace only with a lithium CR2032 or DL2032 battery by Duracell,
Eveready, Hitachi, Maxell, or Toshiba (available from most electronics stores). Other batteries are not UL approved and may cause a fire or explosion.
For more information, call the customer service number inside the back cover of this guide.
Connecting the power cord
1. Plug the small end of the power cord into the power jack on the back of your Acoustic Wave® music system (Figure 3).

Operating Your Acoustic Wave® Music System
Operating with the remote control
You can use the remote control (Figure 5) to operate most functions of your Acoustic Wave however, you need to use the CD Mode button on the system control panel.
If the remote stops operating, or its range seems reduced, try replacing the battery. However, keep in mind that lighting and other room conditions, in addition to battery age, can affect the operating range of an infrared remote control.
Note:
The remote control feature does not work when operating your Acoustic Wave to conserve battery power. See “Operating on battery power” on page 10.

Maintaining Your Acoustic Wave® Music System
Taking care of your Acoustic Wave® music system
The only necessary maintenance is cleaning and periodic battery replacement.
Handling CDs
Handle discs by their edges to prevent fingerprints and scratches.
To remove stains or fingerprints from the surface of a disc use a soft, lint-free, dry cloth. Wipe in straight movements from the center of the disc to the outside. Do not use any chemical products; they can damage the disc.
Do not write on, or attach labels to the surface of the disc.
To minimize exposure to dust and dirt, replace discs in their cases after use. Store each disc in its case, out of direct sunlight, high temperatures, and humidity.
Cleaning the enclosure
Use only a cloth to clean the outside of your Acoustic Wave® music system. If necessary, you may use a soft-bristled attachment to gently vacuum the front of the unit.
Do not use any solvents, chemicals, or cleaning solutions containing alcohol, ammonia, or abrasives. Do not spray cleaners directly on the music system. Do not allow liquids to spill into any openings on the case.
If liquids get into the product, turn it off. Call Bose soon as possible to arrange for service (see phone numbers on inside back cover).

To ensure correct operation of your Acoustic Wave® system, replace the battery in the remote every year and following an extended power loss. A dead battery may leak and cause damage. For instructions on replacing the battery, see Installing the remote control battery on page 6.
