Firmware update
It may be necessary to update the rmware of your iW3 speaker to ensure the latest compatibility and optimal functionality. The iW3 oers
three dierent methods for performing the rmware upgrade, detailed below as Option A, B and C. You only need to choose one.
Note: If you have access to an iOS device running 4.2 or later we recommend option A.
1. Power ON the iW3 speaker and place on the charging base.
2. Connect your iOS device to the iW3 using the included iPod USB sync cable.
3. Download our free iHome Set app from the App Store and launch the app.
4. Scroll down the app interface and select ‘Search for Update’ .
5. If there is an update available, a message will pop-up asking if you would like to apply the rmware upgrade.
6. Select ‘Upgrade’.
1. Using your computer visit www.ihomeaudio.com/support/product/iW3 and download the latest rmware from
the top right corner of the support page. Please be sure to remember the location where you save the le to on
your computer.
2. Locate the le from step 1 and load the le onto a USB mass storage device
Note: You must load it to the root (main) directory. Do not create a separate folder within the USB device.
3. Power on your iW3. When the iW3 is fully powered on connect the USB drive to the port located on the rear panel.
4. Press and Hold the Firmware button for 5 seconds.
Note: The update process will take around 3 minutes to complete.
During Firmware Update:
There are two indicators on the iW3 to track the progress of the update:
1. The rmware update LED will remain RED
2. The top panel LED's will light up in succession to note the progress of the update (see diagram below)
Note: If the Firmware LED remains unlit this indicates that the process was unable to begin. Please be sure the proper le was loaded on the
USB drive and start over from step 3 above.
The iW3 has an EQ feature that is controlled using the iHome Set app to adjust Bass and Treble.
TREBLE +/- buttons: Adjust treble levels between -5 and +5. Default is 0
BASS +/- buttons: Adjust treble levels between -5 and +5. Default is 0
