Setting Time Using iPhone/iPod Time Sync

touch, iPod nano and iPod Classic; older iPod models such as iPod mini do not support this feature).

Clock Adjust/Time Sync Button
located at the back of the unit, “Time Sync” flashes on the lower part of the display.

needed. If sync still fails, please set time manually (see below).
NOTE:
iPhone time is automatically updated to the correct time via cell phone towers. The time on your iPod is accurate only to the time
