Docking system for iPod/iPhone/iPad
Aluminium DAB
Highlights
DAB and FM compatible
DAB (Digital Audio Broadcasting) digital radio
is a new way of broadcasting radio, in addition
to FM analogue transmission, via a network of
terrestrial transmitters. It provides listeners
with more choices and information delivered
in clear, crackle-free sound quality. The
technology allows the receiver to lock on to
the strongest signal it can find. With DAB
digital stations there are no frequencies to
remember, and sets are tuned by station name,
so there is no retuning on the move.
Dock iPod/iPhone in its case
Smartly designed spring-loaded docking port
effortlessly accommodates any iPod or iPhone,
without special adaptors. What's more, it
works even when most protective cases are on
– just dock your iPod or iPhone as it is. Now
you can truly have fuss-free enjoyment of your
music.
Gentle wake
Start your day the right way by waking up
gently to a gradually increasing alarm volume.
Normal alarm sounds with a pre-set volume
are either too low to wake you up or are so
uncomfortably loud that you are rudely jolted
awake. Choose to wake up to your favourite
music, radio station or buzzer alarm. Gentle
wake's alarm volume gradually increases from
subtly low to reasonably high in order to gently
rouse you.
Auto clock synchronisation
When connected and docked, this docking
system will automatically synchronise the clock
with your iPod/iPhone/iPad within a few
seconds. With this convenient feature, you do
not need to set the time manually.
Play and charge iPod/iPhone/iPad
Enjoy your favourite MP3 music while charging
your iPod/iPhone/iPad! The dock lets you
connect your portable device directly to the
Philips system so you can listen to your
favourite music in superb sound. It also charges
your iPod/iPhone/iPad while it plays so you can
enjoy your music and not have to worry about
your portable player battery running out. The
DCB291/05
system automatically charges your portable
device while it is docked.
Weekday/weekend alarm
Designed with modern day lifestyles in mind,
this clock radio has a dual alarm feature,
allowing you to set different alarm times for
weekdays and weekends or even vary the
alarm settings for couples. The alarm settings
can be tailored for the same alarm times for
the entire week from Monday to Sunday. Or
you can set the alarm for an early start on
weekdays from Monday to Friday, and lazy lie-
ins for Saturday and Sundays. Whichever you
choose, this convenient feature saves you from
the hassle of fiddling with different alarm times
every single night.
