Introduction

Thanks for purchasing the Promate iRadio! Now you can listen to more than 
12,000 radio stations from all over the world. These stations cover all kinds 
of subjects like entertainment, news, music, sports, etc. We hope you will 
enjoy it to the full.

The  iRadio  works  by  using  the  internet  to  connect  to  a  database  of  radio 
stations,  known  as  a  portal.  This  portal  is  supplied  by  vTuner,  the  world 
leader in this field. Once a specific radio station is selected on the iRadio, 
a direct connection is established between the radio station itself and your 
iRadio and the enjoyment begins.

To  be  able  to  use  the  iRadio,  a  broadband  internet  connection  and  a 
wireless  (WiFi)  access  point,  connected  to  your  broadband  internet 
(preferably  via  a  router)  is  required.  Before  you  start,  make  sure  that 
the  wireless  access  point  equipment  is  switched  on  and  connected  to 
broadband  internet.  If  necessary,  please  refer  to  the  wireless  access 
equipment instructions, or contact the network service providers.

The  FM  radio  (with  RDS  facility)  is  provided  as  a  backup,  for  when  a  WiFi 
connection is not available.
