Before you begin

Dear RCA customer,

Thank you for purchasing the RCA Wi-Fi Internet Radio. This product will let you listen to Slacker™ Radio, Internet Radio, AM/FM tuner, weather forecast and music stored in the internal memory or a USB device.

To start using your Wi-Fi Internet Radio, please follow the setup instructions in the following pages.

1. Unpack the unit

You should find the following items in the box:

Ethernet cable

Quick Start

Guide

Additional requirements

• Broadband Internet service

• Broadband (cable/DSL) modem, usually supplied by your Internet service provider

• An 802.11 b or g (Wi-Fi) wireless home network or Ethernet router/switch/hub with available LAN port

For Wi-Fi connections, you may also need:

Before you begin

2. Setup your RCA Infinite Radio accounts

To simplify setup on the radio please complete these steps:

1. Find the Setup Information Card that contains your radio’s MAC address number (MAC: 00-00-00-00-00-00) and activation PIN # (PIN: 0000). (This number is also found in the Device Info screen under the Settings menu in your radio.)

2. Using any Internet-connected computer, go to www.rcainfiniteradio.com/setup and follow the online instructions.

• You will need to input your radio’s MAC address and PIN # to associate your radio with your personal settings.

3. Optional: Insert AAA batteries in the base of the radio

Follow the polarity markers in the battery compartment. The batteries power the clock and alarm* whenever the radio loses electricity. We recommend that you replace the batteries every year (or more often in case of multiple power outages) to avoid low battery power. Otherwise, clock and alarm accuracy may be affected when electricity supply is interrupted.

4. For RIR205 only: Connect the RCA Wi-Fi Enabler to your network

LAN

Broadband modem or Ethernet router/hub/switch

• Make sure the power, WAN, and WIRELESS LEDs are on. The MODE LED state will vary depending on your network configuration. If the MODE, WPS, and WIRELESS LEDs are blinking simultaneously, this indicates a possible connection error. Please review your connections and then press and hold the Enabler’s WPS button for 3 seconds (the MODE LED should start blinking) to rescan your network configuration. The Enabler may restart multiple times during this process and take up to two minutes depending on your network configuration. The MODE LED will stop blinking when this process is completed. Go to www. rcain niteradio.com for more information.

Electrical outlet

If your modem or router/hub/switch has only one LAN

port and is connected to your PC, disconnect the

Ethernet cable from the modem/router/hub/switch and

connect it to the Enabler's LAN port.

* When the battery backup functions, the clock display will not light. However, the function of alarm still occurs during the power interruption if remaining battery power is adequate.

5. Optional: Connect the radio using an Ethernet cable

Use the Ethernet cable if you do not have a wireless (Wi-Fi) access point.
