optional AC adaptor (visit www.ihomeaudio.com). Make sure the AC adaptor 

is plugged into the power jack on the iH13 and into a working wall socket 

to charge your iPod. You cannot overcharge your iPod.  

Please make sure your iPod is working properly before docking into the 

unit. Please refer to your iPod manual for details. 

Solution 

Symptom 

Possible Problem 

No sound from iH13 

Volume is set too low on iH13 

Make sure volume is turned up 

Make sure nothing is connected to the headphone jack 
Make sure iPod is properly and securely connected (see below) 

iH13 doesn’t respond 

Sound is distorted 

Volume level is set too high 

Decrease the volume 

Sound source is distorted 

Batteries are weak 

If  the iPod original sound source (MP3) is old or of poor quality, 

distortion and noise are easily noticed with high-power speakers. Try a 

different audio source such as a music CD. 

If you are using an external sound source like older generation of iPod or 

iPod Shuffle, try reducing the output volume on the device itself. Also try 

setting iPod EQ to flat. 

Unit/adaptor gets 

warm after extended 

play at high volume 

This is normal 

Turn unit off for awhile or lower volume 

NOTE: When optional AC adaptor is plugged in, your iPod 

will charge (with or without batteries installed).
