In order to playback video from your
iPod or iPhone, you must have a
special combination USB/RCA
composite video cable (which you can
buy from Apple). When you connect
the cable to your iPod or iPhone, plug
the other end into both the RCA jacks
and the USB port.
Troubleshooting
•
Do not connect the audio input
jack to a line level output. The jack
only works correctly with devices
that have a headphone output
with a volume control.
• 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. •
If the music sounds distorted at
lower listening levels, turn the
portable music player volume
down. If the problem persists,
replace or recharge the batteries
in the portable media player.
• Control the portable media player
in the same manner when used
with headphones, as the auxiliary
input jack does not provide control
(such as Play or Pause) over the
attached portable media player.

support the following functions:
• Answering an incoming call
• Ending a call
• Using privacy mode
• Dialing a number
• Redialing
