Music playback apps running on your iPhone are sent to background automatically when the
home button of the phone is pressed, but the music playback itself is not stopped.
To resume playback of your iPod music library, stop Livio playback by tapping on the screen
below the Livio Radio logo. An icon representing “stop” will show on the main Livio screen.
Press the home button to send the application to the background. (Other apps may need to be
terminated manually).
A few seconds after this, the iPod music playback application will reinitialize itself and become
active again if the iPod was locked when it was connected to the kit. (This is indicated by an
Accessory Connected message being shown when the iPod icon is tapped).
If the iPod was in unlocked state when it was connected to the kit, press the play button on the
iPod application.
Text Display from the Internet Radio App
Text that scrolls across the radio’s screen is associated with the stream shown on the radio and
displays current song or station information. Stream must be playing before information on the
display is updated.

Double-tap on the home button of the iPhone to bring up the list of running apps. If you
don’t see the app’s icon right away, swipe the screen left or right to locate it. Note: If you

the screen unit the music control section is shown. The iPod app icon next to the music
control sections shows that iPod is your audio source.
Internet Radio App Settings
Many radio stations offer lower bitrates. Selecting streams with a lower bitrate will reduce data
usage and may reduce stream interruptions during the drive. For example with the Livio Car
Internet Radio app, to adjust bitrates manually, users can: Go to the Setting menu of the device,
select the Livio Radio settings the change the Maximum Bitrate Filter and set it to 64K. Other
settings such as Buffer time and Reliability filter may also help in getting a more stable
connection.
