note there are many versions of the Real Audio format. If a Real music file will not play, it should
be converted to MP3, WMA, or ACC format for playback through the NetWorks.
FM Reception:
Buildings made with concrete, steel, or aluminum siding will hinder reception. Household appliances,
electric blankets, computers, CD players, microwave ovens, and other electronic devices can also
adversely affect reception or inject noise. If you experience this, move the NetWorks further from
the offending device(s) or plug it into an electrical outlet not shared by another device.
FM RDS:
The Radio Data System (RDS) transmits text data along with the audio broadcast. Not all FM
stations utilize RDS, thus, text may not be present with some stations. For stations using RDS,
the text might still not appear or might appear scrambled if the RDS signal is too weak. In such
cases, experiment with the position of the NetWorks FM antenna. Note: RDS content is determined
by each individual FM station. If the content shown is inaccurate, that is not the fault of the NetWorks.
The Display:
The display’s backlight and display LCD contrast are controlled automatically via a small sensor
in the lower right corner of the front panel. There are no manual adjustments other than turning
the display off whenever the NetWorks is turned off. This option is found in the main menu under
“Settings”. If selected, the display will go dark after the NetWorks is turned off. This might be useful
when using the NetWorks as an alarm clock in a bedroom and complete darkness is desired.
The display will return to normal when the NetWorks is powered on again, the alarm sounds, or the
snooze countdown is active. With the unit off, while the display is dark, press any button on the
remote control (except Power or Alarm) to turn the display on for 5 seconds. This will allow you
to see the time without having to turn the radio on and off again. With the unit off, press any
button on the remote two times and the display will turn on or off without having to turn the
NetWorks on and accessing the main menu. Note: The display can be affected by hot and cold
temperatures
Placement:
Place the NetWorks on a flat, stable surface. The NetWorks’ driver is shielded and may be used in
close proximity to a computer monitor or television set. Do not obstruct the rear bass port. Place-
ment in a bookcase, corner, or against a wall will inflate the bass.
Cleaning:
Never use any harsh cleansers or solvents on the NetWorks cabinet or plastic panels, as this
could damage the finish.
NOTE: Tivoli Audio cabinets use real wood veneers. Since natural wood varies greatly, it is not
possible to achieve an exact wood color/grain match between models. You may also notice
the wood darken over time with exposure to sunlight. Again, this is normal for real wood.
