INMOTION IM600
DIGITAL SPEAKER SYSTEM FOR IPOD®
The New Standard from the Company
that Set the Standard
Thank you for purchasing the Altec Lansing iM600
digital speaker system for iPod. When Altec Lansing
introduced the original inMotion, it set new standards
for sound and size and let a whole lot of music out of
the iPod. Today, the new iM600 raises the bar again
with an innovative and performance-leading design.

adapter that came with your iPod. While the docking

iPod models, CD players, MP3 players, portable DVD
players, and laptops—can also be connected to the

“Connecting to alternate audio source” section.
Power
Use one of the following two options to power your
inMotion iM600:
AC (Wall outlet) Power
Insert the barrel connector from the power supply into
the DC connector on the rear of the inMotion iM600.
After this connection is made, insert the power supply
into a wall outlet.
DC (Battery) Power
The inMotion iM600 features a built-in rechargeable
Lithium-ion battery.
Charging time up to 3 hours
Continuous Playing Time up to 5 hours
Charging the rechargeable battery:
The battery should be fully charged before initial use.
To recharge the battery, insert the barrel connector
from the power supply into the DC connector on the
rear of the inMotion iM600. After this connection is
made, insert the power supply into a wall outlet. The
indicator light turns on. When the battery is fully
recharged, the indicator light turns off.
When the battery icon on the LCD screen displays a
single segment the battery should be recharged.
When the icon starts flashing, the iM600 is about to
shut down.
Warning: During the recharging process it is typical for
the battery to become warm. To be safe, keep
flammable materials away from the inMotion iM600.
Note: To conserve battery power, reduce the inMotion
iM600 volume level.
