Questions and answers

The Roberts Play M2 radio displays "WELCOME" for a few seconds when turned on. If your radio shows "Waiting," it may indicate that it is trying to find a station or complete an operation. Ensure the telescopic aerial is fully extended and positioned vertically for optimal reception. If no signal is found, try relocating the radio to a better position and perform a scan to find available stations.
