Using the iA5

Docking your iPhone/iPod

1.Gently dock your iPhone or iPod to the 30 pin connector on the front of the unit. Do not force. If you have not already downloaded the free iHome+Sleep app from the iTunes App Store, you will see the following message on your iPhone or iPod Touch display: “This accessory requires an application that you do not have installed.” The purpose of this mes- sage is to advise you that you must download the iHome+Sleep app to enjoy the enhanced features of the iA5. However, your iPhone or iPod will work properly with the iA5 even without the iHome+Sleep app installed.

Setting the Clock with Time Sync

1.Dock your iPhone or iPod.

2.Press the clock sync button located on the back of the unit. The unit will attempt to sync to the time on your iPhone or iPod. When successfully completed, two beeps will confirm the time has been synced. Retry if sync is not successful.

Note: iPhone time is automatically updated to the correct time via cell phone towers. The time on your iPod is accurate only to the time on the computer the last time the iPod was synced to it. An iPhone or iPod cannot sync to exact seconds; it’s possible to have up to 59 seconds difference between the iA5 and synced iPhone or iPod.
