1 WHAT IS A WEBBOX2?
The Webbox2 is an online multimedia player developed especially for
people with a visual impairment. It enables you to listen to a large amount
of topical information and entertainment via Internet. The device only has
a few buttons and all the instructions are spoken. It is therefore possible to
operate the device entirely by touch and hearing. This makes it an
innovative and convenient device for people with a visual disability or for
elderly people without any computer skills.
An Internet connection, not a computer, is required to use the Webbox2!
The Webbox enables you to listen to the latest news, a daily newspaper,
teletext, spoken TV subtitles, radio stations, talking books and a great
deal more. The Webbox2 is very easy to use.
The Webbox2 serial number
The serial number. This 5-digit number can be found on the type plate on
the bottom panel of the Webbox2. This serial number is important for
memberships and subscriptions. This number is spoken under the
heading ‘Information’.
Good to know:
The Webbox2’s programme offering can be adapted to your wishes
and can be expanded. For some subscriptions, you will need to
contact the relevant content provider yourself.
The Webbox2 playlist (programme offering) can be adapted and/or
expanded to you personal wishes.

2 INTERNET IS NEE E
The Webbox2 is ready to use instantly upon delivery. If required, the
device configures itself. The only thing you have to do is to unpack the
device and connect it. Settings have been kept to a minimum in order to
make the device easy to use for everyone.
The Webbox2 makes use of an Internet connection. There are various
suppliers who supply Internet using ADSL technology via telephone lines.
It is usually also possible to obtain such a connection through your local
cable television company. This is also called broadband Internet. If this is
your first connection, you will receive a modem or router from your
supplier. You should either install and activate this yourself or have your
supplier do it for you.
Things you should know:
An Internet supplier is called a network supplier. The English term
often used for this is ‘provider’ or ‘Internet service provider’ (ISP).
Before you can use your Webbox2, you must have an Internet
connection. This Internet connection can also be wireless as the
Webbox2 is equipped with facilities to enable this option (called Wi-Fi).
Your supplier can advise you about this.

3 HOW TO CONNECT THE HEA SET?
You can connect a headset or deaf loop system to the back of the
Webbox2 (see also paragraph ).
Please note: If you connect a headset or deaf loop system to the phones
output of your Webbox2, the loudspeaker will automatically switch off. You
can use the volume control button of your Webbox2 as normal to regulate
the volume of your headset.
Please note: If you use a wireless headset, make sure that the volume
control button is turned up loud enough. This is particularly important if
there are long silences (for example during spoken TV subtitling used in
some countries) as the headset can switch itself off automatically and will
only switch back on when the audio signal returns and if the volume is set
loud enough.

5 USING THE WEBBOX2
Please note: Read Chapter before connecting the Webbox for the first
time.
5.1 Switching the machine on
After the Webbox2 has been connected to the electric socket and to
Internet, switch on the device by pressing the [On] button on the
Webbox2. (This button is the farthest one to the right at the bottom). You
can also use the remote control; the [On] button is at the top on the far
right. When you switch the device on, the [On] indicator light turns green
and within a second you will hear the ‘on’ tone. After about 10 seconds
you will hear a ‘start’ melody.
The Webbox2 will automatically seek a connection to Internet; the yellow
I TER ET indicator light will then light up. The Webbox2 will seek the
most current data and incorporate these into the menu.
You can switch the device off by pressing the [On] button again. The
green and yellow lights will then turn off and you will hear a short ‘off’
tone.
5.2 Pause menu
Regardless of what the Webbox2 is playing, you can always make use of
the so-called ‘Pause menu’ by pressing the volume/pause knob. By
pressing the [Up] and [Down] buttons, you can scroll through this ‘Pause
menu’ to find all sorts of information and options relevant to the
programmes as well as to general settings relating to operation of the
device. See also ‘Annex B: Pause and Reset menu’. You can leave the
‘Pause menu’ by pressing the volume/pause knob again or by pressing
the [Back] button. (Or you can choose ‘Continue playing’). You can also
