Connecting the Unit to Power Source

Remove the battery pull tab before use
Connect the AC adaptor cable plug into the DC jack on the back of the system, then plug the AC adaptor into the wall
outlet. Adaptor must be plugged in to operate unit. The unit does not operate on batteries (a battery back up system
maintains clock settings during power failures).
Turning the Unit ON or OFF
Press the Power Button on the unit at any time to turn the unit On or Off. Note that a docked iPad, iPhone or iPod will
continue to charge when the unit is turned off as long as the AC adaptor is plugged in. You can also turn the unit ON
automatically by docking a playing device or by pressing the radio preset Button. In Dock mode, you can turn the unit
OFF by disconnecting a playing device from the dock.
Setting the Time and Calendar Using AutoSync
The AutoSync feature automatically syncs the time and date setting on the unit to the time on your Lightning-compatible
iPad, iPhone or iPod.
By default, the unit is set to AUTO SYNC mode and will attempt to autosync the time whenever a capable iPad, iPhone
or iPod is docked and at 3 AM each day.
To manually time sync at any time to a docked device, press and release the Time Sync Button.
NOTE: iPhone time is automatically updated to the correct time via cell phone towers. The time on your iPad or iPod is
accurate only to the time on the computer the last time the iPad/iPod was synced to it. It's possible to have up to 59 seconds
difference between the unit and a synced iPad/iPhone/iPod.
Setting Time and Calendar Manually
Autosync must be OFF to set the clock manually.
1. Press and hold the Time Sync Button located on the top of the unit until "AUTOSYNC ON" or "AUTOSYNC OFF"
flashes on the display,(if AUTOSYNC ON appears, press the + or – Button to toggle to AUTOSYNC OFF setting).
2. Press and release the Time Sync Button. The time display will flash. Press the + or – Button to adjust the time (hold
for a few seconds to advance or reverse rapidly). Remember to set the correct AM or PM hour. An icon to the left of the
time display indicates AM or PM.
3. Press and release the Time Sync Button again. The year will flash in the lower part of the display. Press and release
the + or – Button until the current year is displayed.
4. Press and release the Time Sync Button again. The month and date will flash. Press and release the + or – Button
until the current month and date is displayed.
5. Press and release the Time Sync Button once more. Two beeps will sound to confirm your settings and you will exit
Time and Calendar Setting mode.
TIP: Press and release the Alarm 1 Button OR Alarm 2 Button while display is flashing
during time setting to switch between 12-hour and 24-hour display formats.
