Using the RI Dock—Continued
■ Using Your iPod’s Alarm Clock
You can use your iPod’s Alarm Clock function to 
automatically turn on your iPod and amp at a 
specified time. Your amp’s input source will 
automatically be set to the input to which your 
iPod is connected.
■ Charging Your iPod’s Battery
The RI Dock charges your iPod’s battery while 
your iPod is in the RI Dock.
If you cannot adjust the volume of your Onkyo 
component with the DS-A3’s remote controller, 
try changing its remote control ID. The default 
setting is #1.
Some Onkyo components are set to ID #2 or #3.
•While pressing and holding down the 
[SETUP] button, press one of the following 
buttons for more than 3 seconds to set the 
ID:
ID #1: PLAYLIST Up [ ] button
ID #2: ALBUM Up [ ] button
ID #3: PLAYLIST Down [ ] button
ID #4: ALBUM Down [ ] button
Notes:
•This function only works when the OSD 
mode is set to Off.
•To use this function, your iPod must be in 
the RI Dock, and the RI Dock must be con-
nected to your amp with both an   
cable and an audio cable.
•When you use this function, be sure to set 
your amp’s volume control to a suitable 
level.
•Your amp may take several seconds to 
startup, so you might not hear the first 
few seconds of the first song/video.
Notes:
•To charge your iPod battery, the AC 
adapter must be plugged into a suitable 
wall outlet and connected to the RI 
Dock’s DC IN jack.
•See your iPod’s instruction manual for 
more information on battery charging.
