iKN95

Introduction

Thank you for purchasing the iHome iKN95. This product is designed to provide 

high quality wireless sound for your iPad, iPhone, iPod, computer, tablet or other Bluetooth audio device and 

mobile charging on the go with the included removable K-Cell rechargeable battery.
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 support NFC, you can pair it manually with this 

unit.
This instruction booklet explains the basic operation and care of the unit. Please read it carefully and keep 

for future reference.

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.

•   Oil or lotion on fingers can interfere with proper touch-sensitive button function. Wipe touch-sensitive 

button panel with soft cloth to clean buttons and ensure proper operation.  

•  Clean your unit with a soft cloth moistened only with mild soap and water. Stronger cleaning agents, 

such as thinner or similar materials can damage the surface of the unit. 

Long-term Storage of Your Product

•  Store in a cool, dry place.
•  K-Cell should be charged before storing.
•  If stored for a long period of time, K-Cell may be unresponsive until charged for a number of hours 

(depending on discharge level)

•  Do not store for more than a year without charging as this can permanently harm the battery.
•  After long term storage, if unit is unresponsive after charging, RESET unit while connected to AC and 

recharge K-Cell.
