Charging

Most vehicles turn off ACC power when the key is in the OFF position
and the iPod will stop playing and charging. However, in some
vehicles the ACC power is always on and the iPod should be
disconnected to prevent draining the vehicles battery.
Battery icon will appear on
the upper right corner of
the iPod screen to indicate
charging has stopped.
Some vehicles will constantly supply ACC power even when ignition is OFF! The
iPod will continue to charge until disconnected! To prevent battery from draining
or possibly being damaged, iPod MUST be disconnected in these vehicles!

Gain adjustment
Increase/decrease
The potentiometers located on the interface unit are used to adjust the gain settings for the iPod and AUX jack to properly
match the radio's input level. We recommend setting the AUX module's output level to match the factory CD or AM/FM
station's sound level.
