physical, sensory or mental abilities or by those without experience and/or knowl-

edge, unless they are supervised by a person responsible for their safety or they

have been instructed in its use by that person. Children should be supervised to en-

sure they do not play with this device.

3. Safety instructions

3.1. People not permitted to use this device

Keep the device and its accessories out of reach of children.

• This device may be used by children over the age of 8 and by per-

sons with reduced physical, sensory or mental abilities or by those

without experience and/or knowledge, if they are supervised or

have been instructed in the safe use of the device and have under-

stood the dangers that result from it. Children must not play with

the device. Cleaning and user maintenance must not be carried

out by children, unless they are aged 8 or over and are supervised.

• Children younger than 8 should be kept away from the device and

the mains cable.

6.1. Navigating the menus

Remote control operation

All functions can be operated using the remote control as well as the control but-

tons on the device. However, some functions are easier and more immediate to op-

erate using the remote control:

• Entering symbols and numbers by repeatedly pressing the digit/symbol buttons

• Music playback functions PLAY, STOP, previous/next track, track search

Navigating in the menus

 Press the MODE button to select an operating mode.

 Press the MENU button to open the main menu for the corresponding mode.

 Use the OK dial to select an entry and press it to confirm your selection. Alterna-

tively, you can also use the navigation and OK buttons on the remote control.

 Press the MENU or BACK button to return to a previous menu level.

7. Internet radio settings

When connected to the Internet, the radio is logged into the Service vTuner service

(see also: www.vtuner.com). This enables you to receive more than 15000 radio sta-

tions from around the world. You can save up to 500 stations in a favourites list.

You can connect the radio to the Internet, via an access point to a PC, in two ways:

• Wireless in the “WLAN mode”: the radio’s WiFi antenna receives the signals from

your DSL router.

• By cable via the radio RJ45-LAN connection in “LAN Mode”, inasmuch as an Eth-

ernet network is available.

The PC does not need to be switched on for the radio to receive radio stations.

NOTE!

The channel list on your Internet radio is provided free of charge by the

www.vTuner.com Internet service and is updated regularly.

If a radio station is not available, this can be due to reasons on the part

of the radio station operator. This is not, however, a device fault.

When connecting to Internet radio stations, there may be temporary de-

lays due to the high occurrence of requests. Try to set up a connection

to the Internet service at a later time.

7.1. Network requirements

The network must meet the following requirements for the device to function as a

WLAN radio:

• The router used for the network must have a DHCP server function so it can au-

tomatically assign the device a network IP address.

• If your router is configured in this way, you can connect your WLAN radio to the

network without further action.

64 of140

8. Network con guration

Two network configurations are possible for the Internet radio: WLAN mode (wire-

less) or LAN mode (with an Ethernet cable).

• If the Internet connection is to be set up using an Ethernet cable, go to the set-

up wizard and select the connection type WIRED. You can manually change all

settings later in the system settings.

• If you have a wireless 802.11 a/b/g/n network, you can connect the Internet ra-

dio to the Internet via WLAN:

During the initial start-up you will need to select an access point (AP) and possi-

bly enter the network key. The radio will then always tune in to this AP automati-

cally. A message will appear if the device is unable to find the AP.

9. Connecting to a power supply

 Plug the mains cable supplied (model number KSAS0241200150HE) into the DC

IN socket on the device.

 To switch on the power, switch on the radio using the On/Off switch at the back.

10. Using the device for the  rst time

• When using for the first time, you will first see a selection where you can set the

menu language.

 Select the language that is to be displayed in the menus and then press the OK

dial to confirm.

The setup wizard appears (in the previously selected language):

 Confirm the query “SETUP WIZARD START NOW?” with YES in order

to start the setup wizard.

NOTE!

If you select NO, in the next display you can specify whether the wizard

should start the next time you switch on the device.
