For iPod owners wishing to listen to their devices via a portable set of speakers, iLive produces a special line of boom boxes that come equipped with built-in iPod docks. These boom boxes also feature the ability to tune into radio broadcasts and, on some models, CD playback functionality. Because the various models feature different designs, the operating instructions vary slightly from one to the next. However, the control scheme remains largely consistent throughout the product line.
Instructions
Setup
1. Turn off the boom box. The power switch or button is located on the front or top panel, depending on your model.
2. Hold down the "MEMORY/CLOCK ADJ" or "MEM/CLK ADJ" button to access the clock setup feature. Use the "FWD" or "REV" button to toggle between the 12-hour and 24-hour time formats. The boom box's display will indicate the selected format.
3. Press the "MEMORY/CLOCK ADJ" or "MEM/CLK ADJ" button to advance to the hour setting. Use the "FWD" or "REV" buttons to input the current hour. Adjust the minute setting in a similar way.
iPod

5. Turn on the boom box and press the button labeled "iPod."
