Safe Mode 

Is this section  technically up-to-date?  

Soundbridge Radio includes  the Safe Mode option which is a mode that enables 
automatically when Soundbridge Radio detects that its software has become corrupted. 
Safe Mode downloads a new version of software from Roku and to restore factory 
settings. When Soundbridge Radio enters Safe Mode, you will view the text “Safe Mode” 
displayed on the right side of the display. 

Your menu will only include options to update 

your software and restore factory defaults. (I am not sure what is being communicated 
here.)  

While in Safe Mode, your stored network settings will not be recalled. Therefore, it is 
necessary to connect Soundbridge Radio using Ethernet before Soundbridge Radio can 
connect to the Internet to download new software. 

Safe Mode can also be entered manually by powering Soundbridge Radio off (by 
unplugging it from power) and on again, while at the same time pressing and holding any 
button on the remote control.
