For purchasing this ¡Tone’“ iPod® Compatible Portable Stereo System from
Emerson Research. This compact portable system features a built in iPod®
docking station so you can play your iPod® through the speakers of this
system when you are in the mood to share your music with others, or
when you simply do not want to use earphones. In addition, when this
system is connected to an AC outlet with the included AC adapter it wii!
also recharge the battery of any ‘dockable' iPod®. We have even included
four separate inserts so that every ‘dockable’ iPod® currently available (as
of January 2006) will fit correctly in the docking area.
This system also includes an AM/FM Stereo Radio with digital station
frequency display for more precise tuning, and a digital alarm clock that
can wake you to the radio or an electronic buzzer.
Finally we have also included an auxiliary input jack so that you can also
connect non-dockable iPod® such as the first generation models, or the
iPod® Shuffle, or even other brands of IVIP3 players and portable CD players
to this system. The required connection cable is included of course.
We have taken great care to ensure this system was in perfect working
order when it left our factory. If you experience any problems with the set
up or operation of this system please do not return it to the retail store. Call
