Note:Do not connect the audio input jack
to a line level output. The AIJ only works
correctly with devices that have a
headphone output with a volume control.
Note: Do not set the portable music
player's volume level higher than is
necessary to match the volume of the CD
or FM radio as this causes distortion and
reduces sound quality.
Note: If the music sounds distorted at lower
listening levels, turn the portable music
player volume down. If the problems
persists, replace or recharge the batteries
in the portable music player.
Note: The portable music player must be
controlled in the same manner when it is
used with headphones as the AIJ does not
provide control (play, pause, etc.) over the
attached portable music player.

Bluetooth wireless technology support the
following functions:
• Answering an incoming call
• Ending a call
• Using privacy mode
• Dialing a number
• Redial
• Call waiting notification
• Caller ID Other features such as text messaging
using Bluetooth and automatic phonebook
download are phone-dependent features.
