Frequently Asked Questions - LM-K2500 LG

How do I connect my smartphone via Bluetooth?
Turn on the karaoke machine and press the Bluetooth button to enter pairing mode. On your phone, enable Bluetooth and select LG LM-K2500 from the list. Once connected, audio from your phone will play through the speakers.
Can I use USB flash drives?
Yes, insert a USB flash drive formatted as FAT32 into the USB port. The machine will automatically detect music files (MP3, WMA, WAV). Use the controls to navigate and play songs.
How do I adjust the echo effect?
Use the Echo knob or button on the control panel. Turn clockwise to increase echo depth, counterclockwise to decrease. The effect applies to both microphones.
Why is there no sound from the microphone?
Ensure the microphone is firmly plugged into the mic input. Check that the microphone volume is turned up (not at zero). Also, verify that the mute function is not active. If using a wireless mic (not included), check batteries.
How do I reset the karaoke machine?
Turn off the unit, unplug it from the power outlet, wait 30 seconds, then plug it back in and turn it on. This clears temporary glitches. For a full factory reset, press and hold the Mode button for 10 seconds until the display flashes.
Can I connect external speakers?
Yes, use the Line Out (RCA) or Headphone Out (3.5 mm) jacks to connect to external speakers or amplifiers. Note that the internal speakers will still work unless you plug into the headphone jack, which mutes them.
How do I use the Vocal Cancel feature?
Press the Vocal Cancel button on the remote or control panel. This reduces the original vocal track from songs, allowing you to sing over instrumental parts. Works best with stereo audio.
What are the dimensions and weight?
The LG LM-K2500 measures approximately 400 x 300 x 200 mm (15.7 x 11.8 x 7.9 inches) and weighs about 5 kg (11 lb). Place it on a stable, level surface.
How do I clean the karaoke machine?
Unplug the unit. Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the exterior. Do not use water, solvents, or abrasive cleaners. For the microphone grilles, gently brush away dust. Avoid getting moisture into openings.
Where can I find replacement microphones?
Replacement microphones (wired, 6.35 mm jack) are available from LG authorized service centers. You can also use standard dynamic microphones with a 6.35 mm plug. Contact LG support for genuine parts.

Precautions

Handling the unit

When shipping the unit

The original shipping carton and packing materials come in handy. For maximum protection, re-pack the unit as it was originally packed at the factory.

When setting the unit

The picture and sound of a nearby TV, VCR, or radio may be distorted during playback. In this case, position the unit away from the TV, VCR, or radio, or turn off the unit after removing the disc.

To keep the surface clean

Do not use volatile liquids, such as insecticide spray, near the unit. Do not leave rubber or plastic products in contact with the unit for a long period of time. They will leave marks on the surface.

Installing

  • Do not install the unit in a confined space, such as a bookcase or built-in cabinet.
  • Allow adequate air circulation to prevent internal heat buildup.
  • Do not place the unit on surfaces (rugs, blankets, etc.) or near materials (curtains, draperies) that may block the ventilation slots.
  • Do not install the unit near heat sources such as radiators or air ducts, or in a place subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust, mechanical vibration or shock.
  • Do not place heavy objects on the unit.

Cleaning the unit

To clean the cabinet

Use a soft, dry cloth. If the surfaces are extremely dirty, use a soft cloth lightly moistened with a mild detergent solution. Do not use strong solvents, such as alcohol, benzine, or thinner, as these might damage the surface of the unit.

To obtain a clear picture

The DVD karaoke is a high-tech, precision device. If the optical pick-up lens and disc drive parts are dirty or worn down, the picture quality will be poor.

Regular inspection and maintenance are recommended after every 1,000 hours of use. (This depends on the operating environment.)

For details, please contact your nearest dealer.

Notes on Discs

Handling discs

Do not touch the playback side of the disc. Hold the disc by the edges so that fingerprints will not get on the surface.

Do not stick paper or tape on the disc.

LG LM-K2500 - Handling discs - 1

Storing discs

After playing, store the disc in its case.

Do not expose the disc to direct sunlight or sources of heat, or leave it in a parked car exposed to direct sunlight, as there may be a considerable temperature increase inside the car.

Cleaning discs

Fingerprints and dust on the disc can cause poor picture quality and sound distortion. Before playing, clean the disc with a clean cloth. Wipe the disc from the center out.

LG LM-K2500 - Cleaning discs - 1

Do not use strong solvents such as alcohol, benzine, thinner, commercially available cleaners, or anti-static spray intended for older vinyl records.

Notes on MP3 Discs

About MP3

  • An MP3 file is audio data compressed by using MPEG1, the audio layer-3 file-coding scheme. We call files that have the ".mp3" file extension "MP3 files".
  • The player cannot read an MP3 file that has a file extension other than ".mp3".
  • The player cannot read a fake MP3 file that has a file extension ".mp3".

MP3 discs compatible with this player are limited as follows:

  1. Sampling frequency: only 44.1 kHz
  2. Bit rate: within 96–192 kbps
  3. CD-R physical format should be "ISO 9660"
  4. If you record MP3 files using software that cannot create a file system, for example "Direct-CD" etc., it is impossible to play back MP3 files. We therefore recommend that you use "Easy-CD Creator", which creates an ISO 9660 file system.
  5. A single-session disc requires MP3 files in the first track. If there is no MP3 file in the 1st track, it cannot play back MP3 files. If you wish to play back MP3 files, format all the data on the disc or use a new one.
  6. We do not recommend using CD-RW discs. Please use finished CD-R discs only.
  7. File names should be named using 8 letters or less and must incorporate the ".mp3" extension, e.g., "*******.MP3".
  8. Do not use special characters such as "_?!><+*}{[@]::V.," etc.
  9. The total number of files on the disc should be less than 200.
  10. Use 74-minute CD-R discs (650 MB). Do not use 80-minute CD-R (700 MB) software.

This DVD Karaoke requires discs/recordings to meet certain technical standards in order to achieve optimal playback quality. Pre-recorded DVDs are automatically set to these standards. There are many different types of recordable disc formats (including CD-R containing MP3 files).

Customers should also note that permission is required in order to download MP3 files and music from the Internet. Our company has no right to grant such permission. Permission should always be sought from the copyright owner.
