All the
K2 Blu
’s important functions can be operated using the buttons on the machine’s front panel. Direct operating
buttons are provided for basic functions such as selecting sources and tracks, whereas more rarely required functions
are controlled by means of menus which are called up using the

buttons.
The integral screen constantly displays all the information relating to the machine’s current state, the track currently
playing and the radio station currently tuned. The main item of information is emphasised on the screen in a context-
sensitive manner, so that you can see it clearly from a distance. The following section describes the functions of the
front panel buttons and the screen information in greater detail.

we recommend that you disconnect it from the mains by withdrawing the
