Connect to an external antenna
The system’s power cord is used as an antenna for FM radio. If, after
adjusting the position of the power cord, you still experience poor
reception, you may need to install an external antenna. An external
dipole antenna can be ordered through Bose Customer Service.
Visit global.Bose.com/Support/WSTIV for contact information.
1. Insert the 3.5 mm plug of the FM antenna into the
FM ANTENNA
connector on the rear of the system.
2. Extend the ends of the antenna as far from the unit and other
external equipment as possible to establish optimum reception

Note:
Many FM radio stations transmit a vertically polarized signal
as well as, or instead of, a horizontally polarized signal. If
the horizontal antenna orientation does not provide good
reception, try hanging the antenna in a vertical orientation.
