(daily, weekdays or weekend).

Setting the Alarms

(7 = the whole week, 5 = weekdays, 2 = weekends only).

Buzzer, Playlist (user created), iPhone/iPod or Radio.

NOTE: to wake to playlist, you must first create a playlist named “iHome”. The iP42 will play music randomly from within

the “iHome” playlist.

If the selected alarm source is iPhone/iPod and no iPhone/iPod is docked/detected, the iP42 will default to a buzzer alarm.

4. For wake to radio, after selecting Radio as wake to source, press the Alarm Button again and turn the Set Wheel to

select a different radio station or press one of the preset buttons to wake to a preset radio station (see Using Radio on page

once set and the corresponding alarm icon will light up. The lower part of the display will show the earliest set alarm time.
