English Maintaining Your Wave® radio/CD Taking care of your Wave® radio/CD 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 your Wave® radio/CD Use only a cloth to clean the outside of the Wave® radio/CD. If necessary, you may use a soft-bristled attachment to gently vacuum the front of the system. Do not use any solvents, chemicals, or cleaning solutions containing alcohol, ammonia, or abrasives. Do not spray cleaners directly on the system. Do not allow liquids to spill into any openings on the system. CAUTION: If liquids get into the product, turn the system off. Call Bose® Product Support as soon as possible to arrange for service (see phone numbers on inside back cover). Replacing the batteries To maintain your Wave® radio/CD's memory and backup alarm system, replace the 9V battery every year or whenever you have an extended power loss. A dead battery may leak and cause damage. Do not unplug your Wave® radio/CD from the power outlet while replacing the battery. If you do unplug it, you will need to reset the clock and alarm settings. Follow these steps to check the low-battery indicator: 1. Turn the system off. 2. Hold down Alarm Setup, and press CD Stop. The display indicates the remaining battery power: • Hi or number 78 or above mean adequate voltage to provide backup power. • Number 77 or below means limited voltage. • Lo means the voltage is too low for the battery to function. The play/pause flashes to alert you to replace the battery soon. For further information on replacing the backup battery, see "Installing the battery" on page 6. For information on replacing the remote control battery, see "Installing the remote control battery" on page 8.
