Background and Identification

The JBL On Time Micro is a dock and clock radio speaker for earlier dockable iPods and iPhone models, released in May of 2010. This speaker features a 2.2-inch backlit display between the control buttons and above the most important button, “Snooze.”

On the back of the device you will find inputs for an FM antenna, AM antenna, 3.5mm auxiliary input, and a DV-12v power connection. The rounded area surrounding the control panel and dock is almost entirely made up of the speaker.

If you flip over the dome shape, there is a plate with a serial number and information about your device. There’s also a removable battery cover that holds 3 AAA batteries, in case you are away from a power supply.

By removing this plate with rubber fastening feet, you’ll find the screws to open the device. To remove the first back plate you’ll need to peel off the pieces of rubber that cover the screws. After unscrewing these there will be another layer of screws to remove before you can actually reach the inside of the device.
