SAFETY WARNINGS
Please read before installation.
If this Internet radio has been moved from a cold place to a warm place, DO NOT plug it in for 2-3 hours (e.g. from a cold car boot to a warm room). There is a possibility that moisture may have con­densed in the Internet radio, this can cause damage to your Internet radio. To avoid damage please unpack your Internet radio and allow it to stand at room temperature for 2-3 hours before use. This will help any moisture evaporate and prevent unnecessary damage to your Internet radio.
DO ensure that the mains plug is easily accessible.
COVERS - Do not remove any fixed covers as this may expose dangerous voltages.
WEATHER - It is advisable to unplug an external aerial during a thunderstorm.
VENTILATION - The ventilation holes on the casing of your Internet radio prevent it from over heat-
ing. Do not block or cover these holes, especially with cloth or paper. Do allow a minimum distance of 5cm around the apparatus for sufficient ventilation.
DAMAGE - Never use your Internet radio if it is damaged in any way. Always place your Internet radio on a flat level surface avoiding anywhere which may be subject to strong vibration.
TEMPERATURE - Avoid extremes of temperature, either hot or cold, place your Internet radio well away from heat sources such as radiators or gas/electric fires.
DO NOT use this apparatus in tropical climates.
MOISTURE - Do not allow your Internet radio to be exposed to rain, moisture or dust. If any liquid
is spilt into your Internet radio it can cause serious damage. If you spill any liquid into your Internet radio switch it off at the mains immediately. Contact your store immediately.

STEPS FOR CONNECTING YOUR RADIO TO YOUR WIRELESS NETWORK
Step 1 - Power up the radio
First, connect to the AC Power. In use, the radio can be switched on or off with the STANDBY/ON button.
The display on the front of the radio will light up and say:
Reciva Radio
ARM Powered
After a few seconds, this will change to show:
Initializing
Network
After a few seconds, this will change to show:
< Scan for networks >
Enter network
View Cong Edit Cong
Step 2 - Scan for a wireless network connection
When the display says < Scan for networks >, press the SELECT button. (Note: if you make a mistake at any point, press the BACK button to go back to the previous screen.)
The radio will now scan for all available wireless networks and will display:

STEPS FOR CONNECTING YOUR RADIO TO YOUR WIRELESS NETWORK (continued)
If it can’t find one then the display will say:
No networks
Found
If this happens then you will have to get your wireless access point working - see the instructions supplied with it.
When the radio finds your wireless network, it displays the ESSID for the access point on the screen - this is a name that is allocated to the access point by the person who set up the network - for example:
< My Home Network >
It is possible, and in some locations highly likely, that your radio will find more than one wireless access point, in which case you can choose which one you want to connect to. Turn the knob on the radio to see the ESSID for each access point the radio has found.
Step 3 - Connect to the wireless network
When the ESSID for the access point you want to connect to is displayed on the screen, press the SELECT button.
If your network is not configured to need an encryption code, the screen should say:
Connecting to
network

STEPS FOR CONNECTING YOUR RADIO TO YOUR WIRELESS NETWORK (continued)
Then:
Network OK
If the screen displays either:
Enter WEP key
Or:
Enter WPA key
Then the network is using one of the encryption systems: Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) or Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA). You therefore need to enter the correct WEP or WPA code into the radio to get it to communicate with your network.
Only the person who set up the network in the first place knows this code; if that person is not you then you need to find out what it is.
After 3 seconds, the display goes into the code entry mode. To enter the code, use the knob to select each character of the code in turn, pressing the SELECT button after each character. Note that WEP and WPA codes are sensitive to upper and lower case characters so you must enter them exactly.
Use the BACK button to erase incorrect characters.
After the final character, use the knob to select the END character and press the SELECT button.
The radio should now be able to connect to the network.
If the display shows “Invalid key” or “Network Error”, an incorrect password has probably been entered.

CHOOSING A RADIO STATION TO LISTEN TO
1. Press the SELECT button. (Note: if you make a mistake at any point, press the BACK button to go back to the
previous screen.)
Network OK
2. If the screen does not say < Stations > as shown above, turn the knob until it does.
3. Press the SELECT button.
4. Turn the knob to choose from <Location> or <Genre>.
<Location> enables you to choose from the radio stations provided by any country which
you choose from a list.
<Genre> enables you to choose radio stations according to their content, for example
Classic Rock, Sport, News, etc.
5. Press the SELECT button to choose the option you want.
<Location>
1. Turn the knob until the display shows the region you want (or select ‘All’ to display all countries),
2. Press the SELECT button.
3. Turn the knob until the display shows the country you want.
4. Press the SELECT button.
5. Turn the knob until the display shows the station you want.
6. Press the SELECT button and wait until the radio connects to that station.
Note that some radio stations do not broadcast 24 hours per day, and some stations are
not always on-line.
If this station has on-demand content (that is, it gives the option of listening to
programmes which have already been broadcast), see “Stations which enable you to choose what you listen to”.

STORING A RADIO STATION IN A PRESET
When a radio station is playing, hold down one of the preset buttons (1 to 5) until the
screen says.

PLAYING A PRESET RADIO STATION
When a radio station is playing, briefly press the preset button (1 to 5) for the station you want. (Note, do not hold the button down - if you do then the station currently playing will overwrite the one stored in the preset; be careful.)
REQUESTING A STATION THAT IS CURRENTLY UNAVAILABLE
If you want to listen to a particular radio station which is currently not available online, you can visit the Reciva website at http://www.reciva.com/ and put in a request to add the station to the list.
STATIONS WHICH ENABLE YOU TO CHOOSE WHAT YOU LISTEN TO
Some radio stations can provide a number of options associated with their station; for example, some stations enable you to listen to programmes that have already been broadcast. When you select a radio station that has this facility, the station does not start playing immediately, but instead the display shows:
< Live >
On Demand
1. Turn the knob to choose <Live> or <On Demand>, then press the SELECT button.
If you choose <Live> then the radio plays the current output from this station as normal.
If you choose <On Demand> then more screens are displayed where you choose what
you want to listen to.
What is displayed will depend on the station you have chosen - the following steps are
only a guide.
