Setting the Clock

Setting the Time and Calendar using iPhone/iPod Time Sync

Time sync mode allows you to sync the iP49 to the time and calendar from your iPhone or recent models of iPod like iPod 

Touch, iPod Nano and iPod Classic (older models such as iPod Mini do not support this feature).

 Button

 located on the right.  “SYNC” will appear on the 

display, indicating sync function is in progress.

2.  After sync is complete, the display will show the current time and date on your iPhone/iPod clock and two beeps will 

confirm time sync is done. 

3.  If time sync fails, 2 second long beeps sound and the unit exits time sync mode. Try using a different iPhone/iPod to 

attempt syncing  or set time manually (see below).

NOTE

: The iPhone is constantly updated to current time via cell phone towers. The time on your iPod is only accurate to 

the  last  time  it  was  synced  to  a  computer.  It’s possible to have up to 59 seconds difference between the iP49 and synced 
iPhone/iPod.
