I would like to be able to add my own playlist. How does this feature work?

+ -

MP3* music files need to be downloaded onto a USB memory stick, which is then inserted into the back of the Relish radio and concealed with the back panel. The number of songs that can be stored will depend on the size of the USB you use. A 4MB USB can usually store around 250 songs. When the user wishes to listen to their own music, they simply press the "My Playlist" button on the top panel of the music player. Please refer to the manual accompanying the radio for guidance on how to download music.

The radio does not currently support music downloaded via Mac.

*Music must be downloaded as MP3 files only

What type of USB stick should I use?

+ -

Use a standard USB stick (version 2.0 or 3.0), we’ve included a USB to get you started.. Before adding music, make sure you format it to "FAT32". (You can usually do this easily on your computer by right-clicking the USB drive and selecting "Format.") Once formatted, add your music files.

Please only use a USB with a capacity of up to 32GB. This will be ample for storing 2000+ songs.

Can I use the playlist for audiobooks?

+ -

The Relish Radio is designed for listening to radio stations and music playlists using a USB stick. It’s not currently suitable for audiobooks.

Is it easy to set up?

+ -

Yes – setup is simple. Just follow the steps in the manual to save 3 favorite radio stations and load music (in MP3 format) onto the USB stick. Once that’s done, the person using it only needs to use the buttons on top of the radio. Need help? Visit our Help Center – we’re happy to assist.

What frequencies can the radio be tuned to?

+ -

The radio can be tuned to stations on FM. It does not connect to AM stations or other Satellite frequencies.

Can I buy a spare adapter?

+ -

Yes – just get in touch through our Help Center, and our team will be happy to assist you.

Can I get spare labels?

+ -

Absolutely. If you need extra labels, just reach out through our Help Center, and we’ll be happy to send them to you.

Does the radio come with a power cord?

+ -

Yes, every radio comes with the correct power cord and power adapter for your region.

  • UK and US orders include the correct plug for your region.
  • EU orders come with an EU adapter.
  • Australian orders come with an AU adapter.

No need to buy anything extra – it’s all included.

What size batteries does the radio use, and how long do they last?

+ -

The radio takes 4 x D-size batteries if you want to use it without the power cord. With high-quality batteries, you can expect over 100 hours of use, based on playing it daily at a medium volume (level 3 or 4). Using both the radio and "My Playlist" features or playing at higher volumes may reduce battery life.

Can I download music from iTunes onto the USB?

+ -

Yes, as long as the music files are converted to MP3 format, they’ll work with the “My Playlist” feature. Please note: This must be done on a Windows computer, as the setup isn’t compatible with Macs.

Will the playlist start where it left off when I turn it back on?

+ -

Yes, when using the "My Playlist" feature, if you turn the radio off and then back on again, it will resume from the beginning of the last song that was playing.

Can I use the Relish Radio with a free Spotify account?

+ -

No – the Relish Radio doesn’t connect to Spotify or any other music apps. It plays radio via FM and music from a USB stick with your chosen playlist. It doesn’t connect to Wi-Fi, Bluetooth or other devices.

Does the Relish Radio come with headphones?

+ -

No, headphones aren’t included, but the radio does have a headphone jack, so you can use your own if you prefer to listen privately.

Is the radio suitable for someone with very limited dexterity or vision?

+ -

Yes, the Relish Radio has large, clearly labelled buttons and simple controls, making it suitable for those with reduced vision, shaky hands or limited dexterity.

Can the radio be locked to prevent accidental changes?

+ -

Yes, once set up, the user can’t accidentally reprogramme the radio. This means stations and playlists stay as you’ve set them, offering peace of mind for families and carers.

Can I skip songs in the “My Playlist” mode?

+ -

No, the Relish Radio plays songs in order and does not have a skip function. If you want to change the order, you can rearrange the files on the USB stick using a computer.
