Ventilation
Overloading
IMPORTANT – The unit will become hot when in use. Do not stack multiple units
on top of each other. Do not place in an enclosed area such as a bookcase or
in a cabinet without sufficient ventilation. Ensure that small objects do not fall
through any ventilation grille. If this happens, switch off immediately, disconnect
from the mains supply and contact your dealer for advice.
Do not overload wall outlets or extension cords as this can result in a risk of fire
or electric shock. Overloaded AC outlets, extension cords, frayed power cords,
damaged or cracked wire insulation and broken plugs are dangerous. They may
result in a shock or fire hazard. Be sure to insert each power cord securely. To
prevent hum and noise, do not bundle the interconnect leads with the power
cord or speaker leads.
Positioning
Cleaning
Choose the installation location carefully. Avoid placing it in direct sunlight or
close to a source of heat. No naked flame sources, such as lighted candles,
should be placed on the unit. Also avoid locations subject to vibration and
excessive dust, cold or moisture. The unit can be used in a moderate climate.
To clean the unit, wipe its case with a dry, lint-free cloth. Do not use any cleaning
fluids containing alcohol, ammonia or abrasives. Do not spray an aerosol at or
near the unit.
This unit must be installed on a sturdy, level surface. Do not place in a sealed
area such as a bookcase or in a cabinet. Do not place the unit on an unstable
surface or shelf. The unit may fall, causing serious injury to a child or adult as
well as serious damage to the product. Do not place other equipment on top of
the unit.
Battery disposal
Please dispose of any discharged batteries according to local environmental/
electronic waste disposal guidelines.
Due to stray magnetic fields, turntables or CRT TVs should not be located nearby
due to possible interference.
Servicing
These units are not user serviceable. Never attempt to repair, disassemble or
reconstruct the unit if there seems to be a problem. A serious electric shock
could result if this precautionary measure is ignored. In the event of a problem
or failure, please contact your dealer.
Electronic audio components have a running in period of around a week (if used
several hours per day). This will allow the new components to settle down and
the sonic properties will improve over this time.
Power sources
The unit should be operated only from the type of power source indicated on the
marking label. If you are not sure of the type of power supply to your home,
consult your product dealer or local power company.
To turn the unit off, unplug it from the mains socket.
WARNING: Do not continue using the external power supply if it is broken.

Remote control cont.
Pairing
iPad and iD100 Remote Limitations
By default as well as the supplied remote the iD100 will
respond to any Apple remote.
Currently the iPod feature of the Apple iPad does not allow
full browsing of content via accessories such as the iD100.
The iD100 also supports the Apple pairing feature for
people with several Apple products (see Apples own
information on how this works).
When in the iPod mode of the iPad the iD100 supports only
PLAY/PAUSE, BACK, FORWARD, REPEAT & SHUFFLE (all
basic transport commands).
You can pair the iD100 to a specific Apple remote by
pointing it at the iD100 and holding down the RIGHT and
MENU buttons for 6 seconds.
This may change in future iPad software updates and is a
function of the iPad software rather than the iD100.
The iD100 will then respond to that Apple remote only (plus
its own supplied handset).
You can un-pair the iD100 again (will respond to all Apple
remotes) by pointing any Apple remote at the iD100 and
holding down the LEFT and MENU buttons for 6 seconds.
The above operations do not affect the operation of the
iD100s own supplied remote which always controls the
iD100 and uses its own code set.
The remotes supplied with some Cambridge Audio Azur
products also offer Apple codes and support the pairing
function (see their manual for details).

Operating instructions
The iD100 allows direct digital audio output from
compatible Apple products (see list in this manual).
Charge On/Off
This allows you to turn on and off the charging function to
the docked apple product to either minimise constant
charging of the battery or to minimise any charging noise
when playing back high resolution audio.
Simply insert your Apple product and the dock will access
and output digitally any audio played.
This includes Streaming Services Apps and any other Apps
that generate audio.
Amp/AVR control
Control of such Apps is done via the Apple products front
panel user interface in the normal way.
4 buttons are provided that allow Volume Up / Down, Source
Selection and Mute on Cambridge Audio Amplifiers and A/V
receivers.
For the iPod functionality of actual iPods or other devices
that support the iPod function (iPhone, iPad etc.) control of
what is playing is either achieved by their own front panel
user interface or by the supplied remote handset.
See remote section for full details.
The handset replicates Apples own functions which then
operate in the manner that Apple decide (the functions are
slightly different on each Apple device).
In addition there are a couple of extra features.
Sync On/Off
Sync On/Off allows you to make
a
permanent USB
connection to a PC/Mac and choose when to turn on/off
the actual appearance of the Apple device to the PC for
syncing purposes.
Always wait for any Sync in progress to finish before turning
Sync off this way.
