Getting Started
Thank you for purchasing the iP45. Designed specifically to work with your iPhone and iPod, this system provides high quality
audio performance that brings out the best in your music and lets you wake and sleep to it anywhere.
Please read this instruction carefully before operating the iP45 and keep it for future reference.
Connect AC Adaptor
Connect the AC adaptor cable plug into the DC jack on the back of the system, then plug the AC adaptor into a working
outlet. While connected to AC power, the iP45 will charge your docked iPhone or iPod as well as the internal lithium ion
battery until fully charged.
Installing/Replacing the Clock Backup Battery
This model is equipped with a battery back up circuit that will maintain the time and alarm time settings, as well as the radio
station preset memory settings and EQ settings, in the event of a temporary power interruption. The battery back up circuit
will also operate the buzzer alarm to wake you up even if the power is out at the selected wake up time. The battery back up
circuit requires one CR2032 lithium battery, included. The lithium battery was included in the package with this instruction
manual.
To install the backup battery:
1. Make sure unit is connected to AC power, otherwise you will lose settings during battery installation.
2. Close the lid and place the unit upside-down on a flat surface to expose the backup battery compartment.
3. Remove the battery compartment cover by sliding it in the direction of the arrow as illustrated.
4. Insert the included CR2032 battery in the backup battery compartment with the “+” side facing up, as illustrated.
5. Replace the battery compartment cover. Place the unit right side up, open the lid, and confirm that the backup battery
icon
is not flashing in the display.
When the backup battery is getting weak the Low Backup Battery Indicator will begin
flashing in the display. When you see this flashing indicator you should replace the backup
battery as soon as possible. Purchase a replacement CR2032 battery, available wherever
batteries are sold, and follow steps 1 through 4 above to install the replacement battery.
IMPORTANT: When replacing the backup battery be sure to have the unit connected to the
AC outlet to maintain all of your settings, otherwise it will be necessary to reset the time,
alarm time, radio presets, and EQ settings after the battery is replaced.
Note: Make sure you dispose of battery properly (see your local regulations).
WARNING: Lithium batteries can explode or cause burns if disassembled, shorted, recharged, exposed to water,
fire, or high temperatures. Do not place loose batteries in a pocket, purse, or other container containing metal
objects, mix with used or other battery types, or store with hazardous or combustible materials. Store in cool, dry,
ventilated area. Follow applicable laws and regulations for transport and disposal.
3
Charging the Internal Battery
Your iP45 comes with an internal lithium ion battery for portable operation. As noted above, the internal battery charges when
the unit is connected to AC power. A battery status indicator is located to the right of the clock display. When the indicator
is low and flashing, you will need to connect the iP45 to AC power to recharge the battery. When the indicator is full and
steady (not flashing), the battery is fully charged.
Note: the iP45 will not charge an iPhone or iPod while operating on battery power.
End-Of-Life Battery Disposal Instructions
