Internet Radio application support (iPhone/iPod touch) This kit includes support for internet radio streaming apps available on the iTunes® Store. Thousands of stations can be streamed through data connections. Supported apps include Livio Car Internet Radio, Pandora, iHeart Radio and more. Supported features such as text display on screen, and next/previous track functions will vary by app. To learn more about each app specifically, please visit the website for the app you need information about.
Controlling Internet Radio Apps NOTE: The following features may not be supported by all apps. For demonstration purposes the following examples will show the features for the Livio Car Internet Radio app. The app must be active on the screen of the device. To do so, simply tap the app’s icon and it will load. Next/previous TRACK buttons execute application specific features such as skipping stream or cycling between station presets.
If your listening experience is interrupted by a call, under most conditions, the app will resume playback at the end of the call. 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.
Terminate (kill) the App If you need to terminate (kill) the app please follow the steps below: 1. 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 do not see such task bar but rather a music control popup then you have an iOS device that does not support background run of apps, therefore this section is not applicable to you. 2.
Troubleshooting Problem Solution Interference, loss of refreshing RDS text, or signal fading. This generally can occur on radios with two FM antenna inputs. Radios with a diversity antenna design are able to switch from one antenna input to the other to find the strongest FM signals. Disconnecting the secondary antenna from the radio or using a diversity antenna adapter typically resolves this problem. Text is not displaying on the screen of the radio.
Problem Solution Why does the radio display show “EMPTY/STOP” and no music plays? The iPod does not have playable audio files or end of a playlist is reached. Please select a new Playlist by browsing there on the iPod or remote. Cannot hear audio from iPod. Check DIP switch settings and make sure that radio is tuned to selected frequency. With the ignition OFF, disconnect Power harness from module for a few seconds and reconnect. Reset the iPod.
Problem Solution Text from iPod/iPhone music App doesn’t show. Audio stream from internet radio is routed through the Universal RDS kit, but text information may not be available unless the applications shares the “now playing” information with the kit. I can’t control the iPod/iPhone from the radio. Content control must be done directly on the iPod/iPhone, or via the optional remote control. Cannot hear AM/FM radio stations.
