Using the iHM1

Thank you for purchasing the iHM1, the speaker system for 

your iPod nano. Designed specifically to work with your iPod 

nano, this system provides high quality audio and that invites 

your music to come out and play. 

Please read the instructions carefully before operating the 

unit and keep for future reference.

Installing/Replacing Batteries

1. Open the battery compartment cover located on the back 

of the unit.

2. Insert 3 “AA” (LR6) batteries, checking that the + and – 

ends of the batteries match the drawing inside the battery 

compartment.  We  recommend  the  use  of  alkaline 

batteries for longer life.

3. Close the compartment cover.

Battery information:

•  Do not mix old and new batteries.

•  Do  not  mix  alkaline,  standard  (carbon-zinc)  or 

rechargeable batteries.

•  Make sure you dispose of batteries properly (see your 

local regulations).

iPod nano switch (located on bottom of unit):

•  Default setting is for the new 2g iPod nano.

•  If you have an original 1g iPod nano, slide the switch to 

the left position.

Inserting/Removing iPod nano from the unit

1. Slide your iPod nano into the unit as shown. Please make 

sure the iPod nano is fully docked into the unit before 

turning on power on the unit.

2. To remove your iPod nano, push the “Release” button 

down. The iPod nano will pop up and you can tilt it into 

the palm of your hand.

Listening to your iHM1

1. Turn on your iPod nano and set desired volume.

2. Switch the mode button located on the right side of the 

unit to On or to SRS TruBass if you want more bass.

3. Because audio tracks are mastered differently, you may 

notice discrepancies in volume from song to song.

   For best sound, turn Sound Check ON in your nano’s 

Settings menu.  

4.  Remember  to  turn  unit  OFF  when  not  in  use  to  save 

batteries. To extend battery life, play unit without SRS 

TruBass feature.

Maintenance

excessive heat.

•  Protect your furniture when placing your unit on a natural 

wood and lacquered finish.

•  Clean your unit with a soft cloth moistened only with mild 

soap  and  water.  Stronger  cleaning  agents,  such  as 

Benzine, thinner or similar materials can mar the surface 

of the case.
