This page describes the basic means of controlling your Blutune T2 radio. Detailed instructions for each operating mode are given in the later sections of this book.
1. Pressing and releasing the
On/Standby
button brings your radio out of the Standby mode if running from the mains or switches it on if using batteries.
Pressing and releasing the
On/Standby
button while the radio is in use will cause it to return to the Standby mode with the clock display when running from the mains, or will switch it off after a short delay when running on batteries.
2. Pressing the
Mode
button gives you access to each of the operating modes in turn: DAB radio, FM radio, Auxiliary Input, Bluetooth and Music Player.
Alternatively, press the that item.
Mode
button and then turn the
Tuning/Select
control clockwise or anti-clockwise to highlight the desired menu item then press the control to select 3. Pressing the

button will access the menu system.
4. Many operations require the user to make a selection from the menu. This is done using the
Tuning/Select
control
.
Turn the control clockwise or anti-clockwise to highlight the desired menu item then press the control to select that item.
If there are more than six items in a menu, then the display will automatically scroll up or down so that the additional items become visible.
If there are many items in a menu, then the radio allows the menu to 'wrap around' in either direction. This can make it easier to reach items at the end of a long menu, such as a list of DAB radio stations.
5. If an error is made when navigating the menus, it is generally possible to go back to a higher level menu by pressing the
Menu
button.
6. Pressing the
Tuning/Select
control allows the display of information relating to the radio station or music file being played.
Note:
In this booklet press always means press and release. If it is required to give a long press on a button this is described as
apply a long press
and the button should be held down for 2 to 3 seconds until the radio has responded.

Bluetooth connectivity performance may vary depending on the connected Bluetooth devices. Please refer to the Bluetooth capabilities of your device before connecting to your radio. All features may not be supported on some paired Bluetooth devices.
The Bluetooth capabilities of your radio enable it to receive audio from many Bluetooth capable devices including mobile phones, personal computers and tablets. Only one Bluetooth device can be connected to your radio at a time. It supports the following Bluetooth profiles and functionality.
A Bluetooth connection can provide a link for audio up to a distance of approximately ten metres. When pairing two Bluetooth enabled devices, for convenience, we recommend they should be no more than 2 to 3 metres apart.The presence of other functioning Bluetooth devices during connection may lead to operational difficulties.
Bluetooth is a short-range radio communication system and generally Bluetooth devices can communicate with each other clearly within a regular sized room or office. The reliability of a Bluetooth connection between different rooms will greatly depend upon the construction of the building.
● Your radio supports A2DP (Advanced Audio Distribution Profile) which is a stereo audio connection that streams stereo music from PCs, mobile phones etc. SBC and AAC audio codecs are supported.
● Your radio supports AVRCP (Audio Video Remote Control Profile) which allows your radio to control music playback from the connected device.
Bluetooth communication range may be substantially reduced if the signal passes through a solid object. Human bodies, brick and concrete walls, heavy furniture or bookcases will all reduce the operational range of your Bluetooth devices to a greater or lesser extent. Glass, dry-wall or wood paneled walls and office partitions may have a less severe but noticeable effect. Metal pipes, foil-lined plasterboard, metal window frames and domestic wiring can also have an effect. You should position your Bluetooth devices closer to each other if you observe communication difficulties.
Note:
Some mobile phones may temporarily disconnect from your radio when you make or receive calls. Some devices may temporarily mute their Bluetooth audio streaming when they receive text messages, emails or for other reasons unrelated to audio streaming. Such behaviour is a function of the connected device and does not indicate a fault with your radio.
Note:
If the unit is in the Bluetooth mode and it is not connected to a Bluetooth device for more than 15 minutes it will automatically switch to the standby mode. The LCD will revert to the standby mode clock display. To use the radio again, simply press the On/Standby button to switch it on.
WiFi networks and cordless phones generally use similar radio frequencies to Bluetooth and may interfere with one another. If any interference is noticed, then try relocating the radio or one of the other devices.

This section describes how to use your radio to access and playback your audio files via USB memory devices. USB memory devices plug into the rectangular slot on the back of the radio.
Note:
USB playback is not guaranteed when the radio is powered from the batteries. The Blutune T2 radio has been tested with a range of USB memory devices of up to 256GB capacity. USB memory must use the FAT or FAT 32 filing system in order to operate with your radio. Your radio is unable to play from media formatted using the exFAT or NTFS formats.
Your radio is only designed to work with USB flash memory devices. It is not intended to be connected to hard disk drives or any other type of USB device. It is possible to use SD, SDHC or SDXC cards for media storage and playback when held in a suitable USB adaptor. However, due to the wide variation of such adaptors, it is not possible to guarantee that all adaptor / card combinations will work in the radio. Audio formats supported are AAC, FLAC, MP3 and WAV. Aux In 1 Recommendations: Unless you have only a few files on the USB memory device, do not place all files in the root folder.
The number of items (files / sub-folders) in any folder should be less than 2000. Searching and playback will be more responsive if the number of files in any one folder is limited (we suggest not more than 250).
It is recommended that the USB memory is reformatted in your computer before adding your music files.
The maximum depth of folder nesting permitted is 8 folder levels (but playback is only from the currently selected level). The shuffle function is limited to 500 tracks.
Album art within music files should not be larger than 500 x 500 pixels. Cautions: In order to minimise the risk of damage to your radio or your USB memory, please place the unit so that the memory device cannot easily be knocked while it is inserted in the socket. Remove the USB memory before carrying the unit or if not using the USB feature for a prolonged period.
Place the unit in Standby mode before removing your USB memory device.
The USB connection is intended only for flash memory devices. The use of hard disk storage media is not supported.
Playback via USB of files stored on MP3 players is not guaranteed.

Your Roberts Blutune T2 radio has been designed to use a choice of power sources. You may plug it into the mains using the supplied high efficiency adaptor, or for listening away from the mains you may use either alkaline or rechargeable batteries. We do not recommend the use of carbon-zinc or zinc-chloride batteries.
It is very important that you read the advice and warnings given below.
1) Whichever type of batteries you choose to use, it is very important that the battery selection switch under the cover is set to the correct type. a. If no batteries are fitted, then set the switch to the Alkaline position (in the down position). This position minimises the power consumption when the radio is powered from the mains.
b. If Alkaline batteries are fitted, then set the switch to the Alkaline position (in the down position). c. If Rechargeable batteries are fitted, then set the switch to the NiMH position (in the up position). Your radio is designed to use Nickel Metal-Hydride rechargeable batteries. No other type of rechargeable battery should be used in the radio.
2) 3) 4)
NEVER
mix old and new Alkaline batteries. The old batteries may suffer damage and leak which will damage your radio and whatever the radio is standing on.
NEVER
mix old and new Rechargeable batteries. This may result in unreliable charging and shortened battery life. Never mix Rechargeable batteries of different types or capacities even if they are new.
NEVER
mix Alkaline and Rechargeable batteries. The recharging of Alkaline batteries can be very dangerous.
Caution:
Replace batteries only with the same or equivalent type. Danger of explosion if the batteries are incorrectly replaced.
Your Blutune T2 radio uses a range of methods to ensure correct and safe charging of Rechargeable Nickel-Metal-Hydride batteries. These work to protect your batteries from excessive charge and discharge. These protections can only work properly if the advice above is followed. In particular, the radio will not be able to correctly charge batteries if they are a mixture of different brands, or different ages, or different capacities.
We recommend that all the rechargeable batteries used in your radio are bought together as a set. They should always be charged together and discharged together and not “borrowed” from time to time for other applications. This will ensure that they give their optimum performance in your radio. We recommend that the rechargeable batteries that you use should be from a quality brand, and should be of at least 2000mAh capacity. Batteries of this capacity should be able to power your radio for between 15 and 25 hours depending upon the volume of the radio, operating mode and also depending on the condition of the batteries.
Before you first install a new set of rechargeable batteries into your radio you should first make sure that the battery type switch beneath the battery cover is in the NiMH position. Install the batteries arranging them as shown on page 4.
Plug the mains adaptor into a mains socket and then into the radio. The charging indicator will show on the display, see page 4.
The time taken to charge the batteries will depend on how much charging they require. New batteries may be partly charged when first fitted, but it is normal for a set of batteries to take several hours to charge fully (this can be between 5 and 7 hours depending on the battery capacity and their initial state of charge). 31
If you intend not to use your radio for some months, then we recommend that the batteries are removed and put away, keeping them in a cool place out of reach of children, away from moisture and such that no metal object can contact the battery terminals.
With care, rechargeable batteries can last a long time and can operate for many hundreds of charge and discharge cycles. When your rechargeable batteries can no longer power your radio adequately, please dispose of them thoughtfully.
I mproper use of batteries may result in leakage of fluid, overheating or explosion. Battery fluid is corrosive and may also be toxic. Battery fluid can cause skin burns, can damage the eyes, and can be harmful if swallowed.
1. Keep batteries out of the reach of children.
2. Do not heat, open, puncture, mutilate or dispose of batteries by burning.
3. Do not mix different battery types or old and new batteries. Always replace all the batteries at the same time.
4. Do not carry or store batteries such that metal objects may contact the end caps.
5. Remove batteries from the radio if they are worn out or if you are storing it for a long time.
6. Remove old or worn out batteries promptly, and recycle or dispose of them according to the regulations applicable to your location. 7. If a battery does leak, remove all batteries from the product, taking care to avoid directly touching the leaked fluid. If the fluid contacts skin or clothes wash with water immediately. Before inserting new batteries, thoroughly clean the battery compartment with a damp paper towel, or follow the battery manufacturer’s advice for clean up.
32
