NFC Bluetooth Wireless

FM Clock Radio with USB Charging

Introduction

iBN97

Thank you for purchasing the iHome iBN97. This product is designed to provide high quality wireless sound for your iPad, iPhone, iPod, computer, or other Bluetooth audio device.

The dual alarms on this iHome clock radio can be set and used independently, so you can program each alqrm to wake you up to a paired Bluetooth device, 4 separate alarm tones, the FM stereo radio, or a buzzer alarm. You may set each alarm for weekday, weekend, or everyday operation, and even adjust the alarm volume separately from your normal listening volume. And best of all, even if the power is out at your selected wake up time, the SureAiarm battery backup system will still activate the electronic buzzer alarm to get you up on time.

Along with the included Quick Bluetooth Connection Guide this instruction booklet explains the basic operation and care of the unit. Please read them carefully and keep for future reference.

This unit features NFC (near field communication) technology which allows you to wirelessly connect your NFC-enabled device to instantly 'pair and play'. See your device's user manual for details on how to interact with NFC devices.

If your Bluetooth device does not suppol1 NFC, you can pair it manually with this unit.

Maintenance

• Place the unit on a level surface away from sources of direct sunlight or excessive heat.

• Protect your furniture when placing your unit on a natural wood and lacquered finish. A cloth or other protective material should be placed between it and the furniture.

• Clean your unit with a soft cloth moistened only with mild soap and water. Stronger cleaning agents, such as benzene, thinner or similar materials can damage the surface of the unit.

PAIRING & LINKING YOUR BLUETOOTH DEVICE WITH THE iBN97

1) Make sure your Bluetooth device is fully charged. Turn it on.

2) Turn on Bluetooth functionality on your Bluetooth device. Typically, Bluetooth controls are found on the device's tools or settings menu (see your user manual). Turn on Bluetooth connectivity and make your device

"discoverable".

3) Press the f:) Button to turn the unit ON.

4) Press and release the Mode Button as needed until "Biuetooth" and the Bluetooth indicator icon appear on the display.

5) Press and hold the EQ/Pairing Button on the top of the unit for 2 seconds to begin pairing the unit with your device. The Bluetooth icon will flash on the display, indicating pairing attempt. "iHome iBN97" should appear on your device's menu. If lt>. ~

"Not Paired", "Not Connected" or similar message appears on your device, select · '

"iHome iBN97" on the device to connect it. If your device asks for a password, enter 1234 on the keyboard of your device. If no device is paired within 2 minutes, a tone will sound and the unit will revert to its previous mode. To retry pairing, turn the unit OFF then back ON, then follow steps 3- 5 again.

6) Once paired with a device, the Bluetooth icon on the display will stop flashing and remain solid. On some devices, you must then select "Use as Audio Device" or similar on the device's Bluetooth menu. Once paired, your device should link to the iBN97 whenever within range.

7) Pairing remains intact when the iBN97 and/or the Bluetooth device is powered off or is taken out of link range

(30 feet). The iBN97 supports auto-linking and will automatically re-establish an active connection when your

Bluetooth device returns within range.

8) The next time the iBN97 is powered on it will automatically try to re-establish a link with the most recently linked

Bluetooth device. If your device does not support auto-linking OR was not the last linked to the iBN97, you must re-I ink manually by selecting iBN97 from the Bluetooth device's menu on your .

Biuetooth device.

9) When you power ON the speaker, it will automatically link with the previously paired Bluetooth device as long as that device is still within range (about 30 feet). So, to pair with a different device you must turn off the

Bluetooth capability of the already paired device.
