Before you can use this product

Before you can use your internet radio, you must have the following:

● A broadband Internet connection (not required for DAB, FM or Music

Player functions).

● A wireless access point (WiFi) connection connected to your broadband

Internet Service Provider, preferably via a router. In many cases the

broadband modem, router and wireless access point will be a single

combined unit supplied by your Internet Service Provider or bought

from a computer store.

● If your wireless network is configured to use Wired Equivalent Privacy

(WEP) or WiFi Protected Access (WPA/WPA2) data encryption then

you either need to know the WEP, WPA or WPA2 key used for encryption

so you can get the internet radio to communicate with the network, or

your router needs to offer WiFi Protected Setup (WPS).

If connecting using WiFi, the internet radio will typically work within a

10-20 metre radio from your wireless access point. The actual range

achieved will depend upon the building type, other nearby wireless

network, and possible interference sources. DAB and FM radio

functions can operate wherever the internet radio is able to receive a

suitable broadcast signal.

IMPORTANT:

Before you continue, make sure that your wireless access point or

router is powered up and working with your broadband Internet service

(use your computer to verify this). To get this part of the system working

you must read the instructions supplied with the wireless access point

or router.

Battery operation

Battery operation using alkaline batteries

1. Remove the battery cover on the rear of the unit by pressing the catch.

Note:

Before you insert the batteries, if you use non-rechargeable batteries,

make sure the NiMH/Alkaline switch which located inside the battery

compartment is switched to Alkaline position. If you use rechargeable

batteries, make sure to switch NiMH/Alkaline switch to NiMH position.

2. Insert four UM-1 (D size) batteries into the spaces in the compartment.

3. Take care to ensure all batteries are inserted with correct polarity as

shown on the rear cabinet. Replace the battery cover.

4. Reduced power, distortion and a “stuttering sound” are all signs that

the batteries need replacing.

5. If the radio is not to be used for any extended period of time, it is

recommended that the batteries are removed from the radio.
