1. Station availability can change from time to time as new stations appear, or existing stations cease broadcasting.
2. If reception was poor during the initial automatic scan, for example the radio's antenna was not completely extended, it may be that the station list is incomplete or even empty.
3. If you have poor reception on some of the stations (resulting in broken or poor quality audio), you may wish to list only stations that have a strong signal strength.

To start a manual scan, press the (MEN) button then select FULL SCAN from the menu list.

SETTING UP A MUSIC SERVER

In order for K2 to be able to play music files from a connected computer, the computer must first be set up for media sharing.

UPnP media sharing allows devices like K2 to play music from a shared media library, navigating through tag menus such as Artist, Album or Genre.

If you are running a PC with Windows Media Player 11 or later (WMP), or an Apple Mac with OS X 10 or later and a UPnP application installed, you can connect K2 and stream audio.

NOTE: iTunes does not currently operate as a UPnP media server, but there are a number of third party software add-ons available that will allow you to access your iTunes library.

SHARING MEDIA WITH WINDOWS MEDIA PLAYER

The most common UPnP server is Windows Media Player (version 1 or later) although other UPnP platforms and servers may be used.

To set up WMP for media sharing, performs the following steps:

Ensure that your PC and radio are connected to the same network. K2 will be recognised as 'K2' by your PC.

In WMP, add to the media library the audio files and folders you want to share with K2 (LIBRARY > ADD TO LIBRARY...).

Make sure that the radio has access to the shared media by selecting it and clicking ALLOW. You can also set a name for the shared media settings.

The PC is now ready to stream music to your radio. The WMP UPnP service runs in the background; there is no need to start WMP explicitly.

SETTING UP A MUSIC SERVER

SHARING MEDIA WITH A MAC

In order to connect K2 to your Apple Mac, a third party UPnP server application is required. There are a number of applications available to download from the Internet.

One such application is EyeConnect. This is an easy to install media sharing application that enables K2 to stream audio. EyeConnect can be downloaded from:

http://www.elgato.com

Once installed, EyeConnect can be found on the System Preference panel. When connecting K2, make sure EyeConnect is shown as running on its setup screen.

K2 will appear as 'K2' in the EyeConnect list of devices. The ENABLE box must be checked and the ACCESS selection set to ENABLE NEW DEVICES.

Your Mac is now ready to stream music to your radio. EyeConnect will normally run automatically after boot up.

If you have more than one computer sharing media, the alternatives are listed. Select the shared media you want to play.

From this point on, the menus are generated from the shared media server (typically Windows Media Player). The first menu shows a list of media types, for example music, video, pictures and playlists. K2 can only play music and playlists.

There is also a search function, which finds tracks in a similar way to Internet radio search, as described on page 20.

For music there are numerous ways of selecting tracks, including:

Genre | Artist | Album |Composer | Rating

Once you have found a track you want to play, press the select button to select. A short press plays the track immediately, while a long press will add the track to the PLAYLIST.

If you already subscribe to the service, you can use your existing Last.fm profile on K2, alternatively visit www.last.fm, complete a profile, then subscribe.

If you have a Trial Subscription Voucher, visit www.last.fm/voucher and follow the on-screen prompts.

ADDING A USER ACCOUNT

To enter LAST.FM MODE, press (MODE) until the LAST.FM MODE Info screen is displayed, alternatively press (MENU) then select MAIN MENU, then LAST.FM from the menu list.

To add an account, select LAST.FM SETUP from the menu, then select USER ACCOUNTS.

Now select ADD NEW ACCOUNT and enter your LAST.FM user name and password using the on-screen keyboard.

SCROBBLING AND LOVE/BAN TRACKS

To get the most from LAST.FM, you can SCROBBLE all the tracks that you've listened to, in both UPnP and LAST.FM modes (and even those from an iPod or computer media server with the correct software plug-ins). This sends track names to LAST.FM, adding them to your library, and helps the service tailor recommendations (and neighbours) to your musical tastes. You can playback your LAST.FM library by selecting the YOUR LIBRARY station in the LAST.FM MENU.

To turn SCROBBLING ON or OFF, select LAST.FM SETUP; then SCROBBLING, now select ON or OFF.

Note: if you intend to let other people use K2 in LAST.FM MODE, you may want to turn SCROBBLING OFF. Alternatively, you could switch to another account.

LAST.FM MODE

While listening to LAST.FM you can choose to LOVE or BAN tracks (which SCROBBLES them even if SCROBBLING is set to OFF). Telling LAST.FM that you LOVE a track will add that particular track to your YOUR LOVED TRACKS list, allowing playback at a future time. BANNING a track will mean it will never be played again.

To LOVE or BAN a track press the button and use the cursor control to select either LOVE or BAN.

The button can be found on the top face of your radio, or alternatively on the remote control. When listening to LAST.FM you can choose to SKIP a track by pressing the button. It is not possible to PAUSE a track in LAST.FM.

Note: You can edit your library and track ratings by visiting the LAST.FM website.

PLAYING MUSIC

There are several types of streams, or 'radio stations' available in LAST FM. To choose one, select STATION LIST from the LAST.FM MODE menu. If you are new to LAST.FM, we recommend that you perhaps start off with ARTIST or TAG RADIO, to allow you to be fully comfortable with the basic features of the service.

The following options are available:

YOUR LIBRARY

Plays all the tracks SCROBBLED to your profile, or tracks by artists you've added to your library. Can be edited on the LAST.FM website.

YOUR RECOMMENDATIONS

Plays tracks recommended to you based on your music profile and that of other listeners with similar tastes.

YOUR LOVED TRACKS

Plays tracks you have rated as LOVED.

YOUR NEIGHBOURHOOD

Plays tracks from the libraries of people on LAST.FM with similar music tastes to yours.

LAST.FM MODE

PLAYING MUSIC (continued)

ARTIST RADIO

Plays a selection of tracks by a certain artist, together with tracks by artists that have a similar musical style. Pick an artist by entering their name or part of their name (you don't have to enter the full name, so for example to find ROLLING STONES you can just enter ROLLING), then pick the artist from the list of search results and select OK.

TAG RADIO

Plays a selection of tracks tagged with certain keywords. Pick a tag word/genre by entering a word or phrase (Its advisable to be as specific as possible, for example BOLLYWOOD rather than BOLLY, because tags are user-generated, so there tends to be many spurious tags connected to only a few tracks, which may then give an insufficient content error). Pick a tag from the list of search results and select OK.

HISTORY

Lists the tracks you have listened to recently, with the most recent track listed first. It is not possible to select a track from this list and listen to it again on demand.

ON-SCREEN INFORMATION

While LAST.FM is playing, the screen will display the track name and progress bar, with figures for elapsed and total track time. A LAST.FM icon is shown at the bottom of the screen to signify that you are in LAST.FM MODE.

During track playback, pressing the button will allow you to cycle though other pieces of information such as artist, album, track name, radio name, codec/sampling rate, playback buffer and today's date.

ALARM CLOCK

SETTING AN ALARM

K2 is able to store two individual alarm settings. To set or change an alarm, either press the (MEN) button, or select MENU, then MAIN MENU, then ALARM. Select which of the ALARM SETTINGS (Alarm 1 or Alarm 2) you would like to modify or enable.

Using the cursor control, scroll through the options below, setting your preferences.

When your preferences have been set, remember to select SAVE.

K2 shows any active alarms by displaying an icon at the bottom of its screen.

When in STANDBY MODE, by simply pressing the ALARM button, you can turn any alarms held in memory ON or OFF. Pressing ALARM will cycle through ALARM 1 and ALARM 2 settings, enabling, and disabling them. If the ALARM icons are displayed, the alarm is enabled. If no alarm icon is shown, the alarms are switched off.

STOPPING AN ALARM

When an alarm is sounding, pressing any one of K2's buttons will STOP the alarm.

When the alarm has been cancelled, an ALARM OFF message will be displayed on K2's screen.

ALARM CLOCK

SLEEP MODE

By using the SLEEP function, you can set K2 to automatically switch itself into STANDBY mode. The SLEEP mode can be engaged in one of two ways:

The quickest method is via the SNOOZE BUTTON. Simply tap the SNOOZE BUTTON to cycle through a range of pre-set SLEEP durations, from SLEEP OFF, through 15, 30, 45 and 60 minutes.

Alternatively, press (MEN) then select MAIN MENU, then SLEEP. You can now set the SLEEP timer to any one of the following pre-sets.

When you have selected a sleep duration, K2 will return to the MAIN MENU.

Press to return to the NOW PLAYING screen.

SNOOZE FUNCTION

K2 includes a SNOOZE feature and incorporates a dedicated SNOOZE BUTTON, found on the top face of the radio. SNOOZE allows you to temporarily silence the alarm for a period of up to 30 minutes.

The SNOOZE duration can only be set when your radio is actually in the process of alarming. At this point, simply tap the SNOOZE BUTTON to cycle through a range of pre-set SNOOZE durations, either 5, 10, 15 or 30 minutes.

When SNOOZE is activated, K2 will return to standby for the set period with the icon of the SNOOZED alarm shown on-screen.

SYSTEM SETTINGS

EQUALISER

K2 provides the user with a significant degree of control over its standard (factory default) audio settings. This includes control over BASS and TREBLE, LOUDNESS and the ability to use one of a number of preset EQ settings. It is also possible to create your own personalised EQ setting - known as "My EQ".

To adjust the audio settings, press (MNU) then select MAIN MENU, followed by SYSTEM SETTINGS. Now select EQUALIZER from the menu.

K2 will display a list of nine EQ options as follows: Normal, Flat, Jazz, Rock, Movie, Classic, Pop, News and My EQ.

Simply select your preference from the list by highlighting your option and pressing the select button. K2 will now store this setting in its memory. For reference, the current EQ setting is highlighted by an asterisk (*) in the EQ list.

To configure your own personal EQ setting, select MY EQ PROFILE SETUP from the EQUALISER menu. Now adjust the BASS and TREBLE levels, decide whether you would like the LOUDNESS function OFF or ON - before selecting SAVE. Your personalised EQ setting can now be selected by choosing MY EQ from the EQUALISER menu.

SYSTEM SETTINGS

NETWORK

The NETWORK MENU can be found under SYSTEM SETTINGS in the MAIN MENU and includes an entry for the INTERNET WIZARD, which will assist you in setting up your radio's internet connection.

For the more experienced user, a variety of manual settings can also be accessed from here, as follows:

INTERNET WIZARD:

Simplifies the setup of your radio's internet connection by taking you through step-by-step instructions.

NOTE: K2 remembers the last four wireless networks it has connected to, and automatically tries to connect to whichever one of them it can find. It's possible however to delete unwanted networks, simply select SYSTEM SETTINGS, then NETWORK, then NETWORK PROFILE. Now select the network profile you'd like to delete by selecting and confirming delete YES.

SYSTEM SETTINGS

TIME / DATE

Found in the SYSTEM SETTINGS menu, this menu offers you the option of changing a number of time/date related settings. The TIME/DATE menu has three listings as follows:

AUTO UPDATE : Choose from three different automatic setting options.

SET FORMAT : Choose whether you would like to use 12hr or 24hr formats.

Update from FM:

Sets time/date from FM broadcast. Like DAB, K2 needs to have been operated in FM MODE, and have received RDS information before time/date information can be extracted.

Update from Network :

To change the brightness settings, press (MEN) then select MAIN
MENU, followed by SYSTEM SETTINGS. Now select BRIGHTNESS from the menu list. You will now be able to modify the default brightness level settings for the two modes of operation - STANDBY and POWER ON.
