Now you can listen to more than 12,000 radio stations from all over the world. These stations cover all kinds of subjects like entertainment, news, music, sports, etc. We hope you will enjoy it to the full. The Internet Radio works by using the internet to connect to a database of radio stations, known as a portal. This portal is supplied by vTuner, the world leader in this field. Once a specific radio station is selected on the Internet Radio, a direct connection is established between the radio station itself and your Internet Radio and the enjoyment begins. To be able to use the Internet Radio, a broadband internet connection and a wireless (WiFi) access point, connected to your broadband internet (preferably via a router) is required. Before you start, make sure that the wireless access point equipment is switched on and connected to broadband internet. If necessary, please refer to the wireless access equipment instructions, or contact the network service providers. The FM radio (with RDS facility) is provided as a backup, for when a WiFi connection is not available. 6pps-fm(中性).indd 6-7 2009-11-5 16:10:32

NOTE: The internal battery is NOT a user replaceable part and carries a 1 year warranty. Troubleshooting If problems occur when connecting the radio to the wireless network, please try as follows: 1. When scanning for a WiFi network and nothing is found, please make sure your reception area has an effective WiFi network coverage. 2. When scanning for a WiFi network, the radio may prompt you that "You connect too many APs, please delete one and scan again." This means you have exceeded the limit of three stored networks in memory. Please remove one network from the Stored Networks and then scan for networks again.37 3. When you have scanned for a WiFi network but still can not connect to it, please check whether the selected network is encrypted. If it is encrypted, please select the correct encryption method and enter the correct key to gain access. If still not connected, please select the Automatic (DHCP) option in the Edit Settings from the Network Menu and then try again; If unable to connect to a WiFi network, please set to “Disable Power Saving” in the Power Saving option from the Network Menu and try again; If still unable to connect, please confirm whether the Wireless Network Access Point has firewall and MAC address filtering, if so, please stop MAC address filtering or add the device MAC address within the AP list of allowed addresses and try again; If still unable to connect, please check whether the Wireless Network Access Point requires a fixed IP address (Static IP). If so, please select Manual (Static IP) in Edit Settings from the Network Menu. Enter the correct network information; If a connection can still not be established, please contact the network access and network equipment suppliers. 4. When connected to the network, but not possible to get Internet Radio stations, it may be: (a) A server connection failure, please try again when the network is less busy. (b) An unsecured but protected network with some form or registration or payment required. This is typical of hotels and airports. It is impossible to pass this point with the Internet Radio, so choose another network and try again. (c) Interference which may be generated from other wireless equipment such 38pps-fm(中性).indd 38-39 2009-11-5 16:10:36
