Before you can use this product
Before you can use your sound system, you must have the following:
● A broadband Internet connection (not required for DAB, FM or Music Player functions).
● A router (or equivalent wireless access point) providing a WiFi signal or Ethernet connection, connected to
your broadband Internet Service Provider. The broadband modem, router and wireless access point will often
be a single combined unit supplied by your Internet Service Provider or bought from a computer store.
● A smartphone or tablet which uses either the Android operating system (version 4.0.3 or later) or Apple iOS
(version 8 or later).
● If your wireless network requires a security password to allow connection, then you either need to know the
WEP, WPA or WPA2 key used for encryption so that you can get the sound system to communicate with the
network, or your router needs to offer WiFi Protected Setup (WPS).
● If you choose to connect the sound system to your network using a wired Ethernet connection, then an Ethernet
cable of appropriate length will be needed. If it is intended to listen to FM radio extensively, then there may be
benefi t in using a shielded Ethernet cable since this may reduce possible interference to the radio.
The sound system is compatible with 802.11b, g, n or a networks and can use 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz WiFi frequency
bands.
If connecting using WiFi, the sound system will typically work within a 10-20 metre radius from your wireless router
or access point. The actual range achieved will depend upon the building type, other nearby wireless networks,
and possible interference sources. DAB and FM radio functions can operate wherever the sound system is able
to receive a suitable broadcast signal.
IMPORTANT: Before you continue, make sure that your router (or access point) is powered up and working with
your broadband Internet service (use your computer, smart-phone or tablet to verify this). To get this part of the
system working you must refer to the instructions supplied with those items.
