Operation Manual

the LCD will also light up and the word “Alarm” will flash. (Figure 10) Should you opt to wake
to the beep, the beep will sound for 60 seconds, then pause for 60 seconds, then resume for
another 60 seconds. This pattern will repeat for up to one hour or until the Alarm button is
pressed. When waking to the radio or iPod, if the unit is not turned off, the sound will play for
one hour, after which the iSongBook will automatically go into Standby mode to preserve power.
To wake to your iPod, follow the steps above but set the source knob to iPod/Aux and have an
iPod resting in the docking station.
Summary of Alarm Options:
Source Knob Position: OFF FM AM iPod/Aux
Alarm Action: Beep FM AM iPod (if docked)/Beep
After the alarm has been set and the iSongBook is On, press the Alarm button briefly any time
to verify the alarm set time. If the Alarm has been set and the iSongBook is in the Off position,
the alarm wake time will be shown in the upper right hand corner.
3. To Re-set the Alarm for the next day: After the alarm activates, press the Alarm button to
re-set the alarm for the following day. The word “Alarm” will appear and the unit will go into
Standby. Changing the source knob to another position will cancel Standby mode.
Charging
The iSongBook’s internal charger will “fast” charge the six NiMH or NiCAD batteries if the adapter
is connected, the Batteries/Charger switch is correctly set, and the iSongBook is switched Off.
All six NiMH/NiCAD batteries must be correctly installed for charging to take place. While charging,
the LCD will show the battery icon with the signal bars cycling. This will disappear from the display
once the batteries have fully charged. It is normal for the rear panel to become warm while the
batteries are charging. A docked iPod will also receive a full charge except when the iSongBook
is tuned to AM. This is intentional since the internal charger reduces AM reception. See the quick
reference chart below for charging status:
Source Knob Position: OFF FM AM iPod/Aux
iSongBook Charge: Fast None None None
Docked iPod Charge: Fast Fast None Fast
The iSongBook operates strictly from battery power alone when the AC adapter is not connected
and all six batteries are correctly installed.
The iSongBook operates solely from the external power adapter whenever it is connected.
The iSongBook may be used with the AC adapter exclusively without batteries installed.
The LCD will show battery strength whenever the iSongBook is on and batteries are installed.
The battery strength meter is approximate. Three bars represent full strength, two bars represent
