APPLICATION
This radio allows you to receive several programmes due to the use of the
latest technologies. In addition to receiving internet and FM radio stations,
it can play contents from mobiles and network content stores through wireless
connection. As it has a wired output, it can be connected to the proper inputs
of stereo audio equipment. You can listen to it with the use of a stereo
headset as well. The integrated speaker provides high quality musical sounds.
Its internal battery can be charged with the use of the USB-C charging cable
accessory. The network adapter is optional, the recommended traditional types
are: e.g. SA 24USB, SA 50USB. The equipment shall be connected to a WiFi
network for full operation.
COMMISSIONING
This product can work with smartphones and IT devices. Therefore, this
description assumes that the user has a general knowledge of how to use the
above devices. The use of the radio is similar to that of computers and mobile
phones. Some settings may need deeper knowledge and knowledge of the English
language. This description presents the current operation of the equipment,
which may change with developments and software updates. In the above case,
act reasonably as with a mobile or computer. If needed, contact the
manufacturer.
Some functions need services/software/hardware provided by a third party. If
these are possibly modified or updated or if an improper version is selected,
the available functions and operations may change, which is not an
insufficiency of the product. The full operation may be influenced by the type
and settings of the connected router, the quality of the Internet / WiFi
network, its operating range, the contents broadcast by the provider of music
programs, etc. Some special Internet settings may need a specialist if the
network environment is not usual.
POWER SUPPLY
The equipment can be operated from an integrated battery, which can be charged
with the use of the USB-A / USB-C connection cable accessory (DC IN 5V USB-C
socket on the back). Charge it before the first use. You can use an (optional)
network charger as charger, or connect it to an (optional) Power Bank or
(optional) USB socket.
A red LED is lit on the back during charging. When automatic charging is
finished, the LED switches to green colour. If the equipment is turned on, the
process of charging can be followed in the upper right corner of the screen as
well. At the end of the process remove the charging cable and start to use the
equipment. If the battery is fully drained, charging time is approximately 3.5
hours. This provides about 11 hours of operation, at medium volume and medium
display light. The above depends on the set volume, the selected operation
mode and ambient temperature. The test was performed by listening to the
radio, at room temperature. The equipment may be charged during use as well
but this increases charging time and causes additional noise.
- The current charging status is shown in the upper bar of the display. The symbol starts flashing before the battery becomes fully drained. Charge the battery if volume or sound quality decreases.
- A 5V / 1A USB charger or a traditional USB charger of higher performance should be purchased.
- Charging is not guaranteed by all QC3.0 or other special quick chargers. If charging does not happen, use another traditional charger.
- Recommended network charger types: e.g. SA 24USB, SA 50USB

stereo headset socket on the back. After the connection the integrated speaker
becomes silent. You can listen to contents from the Internet or wireless BT
source through external devices as well such as HiFi equipment, amplifier,
active sound box…
- The achievable sound quality depends on the quality of the external device, as well as its volume and tone settings.
- It is recommended to turn off the tone control of the radio and only use it on the external device.
- The low outgoing signal from the radio (volume) may cause extra noise, whereas too high a signal may cause distortion.
- You can control the output signal level in the ADVANCED mode of EQ settings if needed, as well as a 5- band tone control is also available.
- A connecting cable and external adapter have to be purchased in some cases for proper connection.
- For further information, please, refer to the instructions for use of the equipment to be connected.
