Getting Started
Thank you for purchasing the iHome HDP-66 2.1 Speaker System for your iPhone/iPod. Designed specifically to
work with your iPhone and iPod, this system provides high quality audio that invites your music to come out and
play.
Please read this instruction carefully before operating the HDP66 and keep it for future reference.
Install Clock Backup Batteries
The HPD66 uses 2 x AA batteries for backup to provide continuous alarm
operation and clock settings in the event of a power failure.
Note:
You should replace backup batteries when the Battery Low Icon is
displayed.
If the Backup Battery has been installed and a power failure occurs or the AC
cord is accidentally disconnected, the display backlight will not remain lit, but
current time and alarm time settings will be temporarily maintained. Otherwise,
you must reset the time and alarm settings.
1. Please make sure the AC adaptor is connected. Otherwise all settings may
be lost during battery replacement.
2. Open backup battery compartment door located on the bottom of the unit.
3. Insert two “AA” batteries, checking the + and – ends of the batteries. We
recommend to use alkaline battery for longer life time. Do not mix alkaline,
standard (carbon-zinc) or rechargeable (nickel-cadmium) batteries.
4. Close the compartment cover.
Note: Make sure you dispose of batteries properly (see your local regulations).
Battery Low Indicator
The Battery Low Icon is located in the right hand side of display. When it lights
up it is time to replace backup batteries.
