Before you can use this product
Before you can use your Internet radio, you must have the following:
● A broadband Internet connection.
● A wireless access point (Wi-Fi) or a wired Ethernet connection (10 or
100 Mbits/sec with RJ45 connection) connected to your broadband
Internet, preferably via a router. In many cases the broadband modem,
router and wireless access point will be a single combined unit supplied
by your Internet Service Provider or bought from a computer store.
● If your wireless network is configured to use Wired Equivalent Privacy
(WEP) or Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) data encryption then you
need to know the WEP or WPA key so you can get the Internet radio
to communicate with the network.
The Internet radio will typically work within a 10-20 metre radius from your
wireless access point. The actual range achieved will depend upon the
building type, other nearby wireless networks, and possible interference
sources.
IMPORTANT: Before you continue, make sure that your wireless access
point or router is powered up and working with your broadband Internet
service (use your computer to verify this). To get this part of the system
working you must read the instructions supplied with the wireless access
point or router.

Navigation controls
1. The majority of functions on your radio may be performed by using
the Rotary control on the front panel. Turn the control clockwise or
anti-clockwise to highlight the desired function, and then give a short
press on the Rotary control to select that function. In this instruction
booklet, press always means press and release. Where a long
press is needed to perform an operation this is specifically stated in
the text.
When not being used for navigating the system menus, the rotary
control simply acts as a conventional volume control.
The rotary control also has an additional function. When listening to
the radio, a long press of the control will provide access to a menu to
allow adjustment of bass and treble settings.
2. Your WM-201 radio is supplied with a compact remote control. All
functions can be performed using this. Many operations require the
user to make a selection from the menu. Use the Up and Down buttons
in the group labelled MENU to highlight the desired function. Then
press the Select button.
3. If an error is made when navigating the menus, it is generally possible
to go back to the previous menu by pressing the Back button on the
remote control.
So that the radio can be used without the remote control, menus also
include a Back option which takes the user to the previous menu.
This can be accessed using the front panel Rotary control or via the
remote control. In this instruction book the words 'Back option' refer
to either of these methods.
