This unit is a preset Clock: the clock is preset at the factory. It’s simple to match the Time Zone setting to your location (US only).

1. Depending on your location and whether or not Daylight Saving Time (DST) is in effect, manually set the DST Switch located at the

Using Time Sync with iPhone/iPod

The iP86 Time Sync feature allows you to sync the time setting on the iP86 to the time from 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 and hold the Time Sync Button located at the back of the unit. “Time Sync” flashes on the lower part of the display.

2. The iP86 will sync to the time on your iPhone/iPod. NOTE: If 2 iPhone/iPods are docked, the iP86 will sync with the device in Dock 1.

3. Once sync is completed,“Time Updated” will appear on the display.

4. If sync was not successful, “Sync Failed” will appear on the display. If this happens, please try again with a different iPhone/iPod, or

set the time manually (see below).

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 iP86 and synced

iPhone/iPod
