Setting Up
Before you begin...
Thank you for selecting this multimedia accessory pedestal from Bose

. Designed as a
simple and attractive solution, it allows you to connect and play a variety of auxiliary components using your Wave

radio.
Benefits of the pedestal include:
•Wave
• Compact design that fits the lines and the functions of your Wave

Simplifying connections to your Wave
While the connectors are in slightly different locations on the back of the two different pedestals, both provide the same connection options. They include three RCA input jacks and three
power outlet plugs on the rear panel. There is also a slot through which the Wave
power cord passes to reach a wall outlet. The two additional power jacks on the pedestal are
for plugging in added components. Or you may choose to connect the Wave
plug to one of those pedestal jacks, as shown in Figure 2 on page 5.

system, your TV, VCR, multi-disc
changer, or portable digital audio file player. In addition to the pedestal, you need an RCA
cable to connect from each component to one of the three pairs of RCA inputs on the
pedestal.
Note: If your component does not include an RCA output cable, you may need to purchase
an adaptor. Call Bose
®
Product and Technical Services,1-800-367-4008, for details.
Setting Up
One at a time
For each separate component you add, there is a simple two-step process:
1. Connect the ends of one RCA cable:
• to the audio output of the component you will use with the radio, and
• to one of the three pairs of INPUT jacks on the pedestal (Figure 5).
When inserting the connectors, be sure to connect red-to-red and white-to-white
at each end. This ensures consistent right and left channel connections for proper
performance.

Using your pedestal with components connected
With auxiliary sound sources connected to your pedestal, you can easily command Wave
radio sound from them.
Before you begin to enjoy the sound, however, take note of which component is connected to
INPUT 1, 2, or 3 on the back of the pedestal. Those numbers coincide with the AUX buttons
on the pedestal front panel, which you will press to select the component you want to hear
(Figure 7).
