the back of the unit to +1 to add an hour or to -1 to subtract an hour.
Time Sync from iPhone/iPod
T he iP40 Time Sync feature allows you to sync the time on the iP40 to the time on your iPhone or recent model iPod (iPod
Touch, iPod Nano and iPod Classic; older iPod models such as iPod mini do not support this feature).
1. Press the Time Sync/Set Button located at the back of the unit. A cursor will flash on the the display, indicating the
unit is attempting to sync.
2. Once sync is completed two beeps will confirm sync was successful and the new time will be displayed.
3. If sync was not successful, one long beep will sound. If this happens, please try again with a different iPhone/iPod.
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. It’s possible to have up to 59 seconds difference between
the iP40 and synced iPhone or iPod.

Installing/Replacing the Clock Backup Battery
The iP40 requires a CR2032 lithium battery (included) to provide backup power to
the clock in the event of a temporary power interruption. The CR2032 backup battery
was packed in the same poly bag with this instruction manual.
1. Place the clock radio face down on a flat surface.
2. Slide the battery door in the direction of the arrow and then lift the door by the
opposite edge to remove it from the radio.
3. Install the CR2032 backup battery in the battery compartment with the “+” side
facing up as shown in the illustration.
4. Replace the battery door.
If AC power is interrupted the backlighting in the display will go off and the radio or
docked iPod/iPhone will not play. However, the buzzer alarm will still turn on at the
selected time to wake you up, even if you had selected the Wake to Radio, or Wake
to iPod alarm modes.
When the Battery Low Icon appears in the display it is time to replace the battery. Purchase a fresh CR2032 battery,
available wherever batteries are sold. Follow steps 1 through 4 above to remove the exhausted battery and install the fresh
battery. IMPORTANT: To avoid having to reset the time and wake up time, leave the radio connected to the AC outlet when
you install the new backup battery.
Note: Make sure you dispose of the exhausted lithium battery properly, according to your local regulations.
