User Manual TuneFM™ for iPod®
Introduction Congratulations and thank you for purchasing the innovative TuneFM from Belkin. This product is designed to play your iPod through your car, home, or portable stereo. Please review this User Manual carefully so that you can be sure to get the most from your iPod, virtually anywhere you go.
Car Setup Instructions 1. Turn down your car stereo’s volume. 2. Connect the Belkin TuneFM to your iPod (at the bottom of the iPod). 3. Connect the included Auto Power Cord to your cigarette-lighter outlet in your car and to the bottom of your TuneFM for optional powering and charging in the car.
Using the TuneFM Transmitter The TuneFM transmitter function automatically turns on when the iPod is connected. It automatically turns off when the iPod is removed. 1. Tune your stereo frequency to a channel with a weak broadcast signal. The ideal channel is one that is not broadcasting a radio program, or is doing so weakly. 2. Insert the TuneFM into your iPod. The iPod backlight will turn on and the current transmitter frequency will be displayed on the iPod screen. 3.
Using the TuneFM Transmitter 5. Adjust the volume of your FM radio to the desired listening level. NOTE: We recommend that you remove the TuneFM from the iPod when not in use.
Storing and Using Presets 1. To store a preset, select the desired frequency using ▲ or ▼buttons. Press and hold the desired preset button (1, 2, 3, or 4) for two seconds. An audible beep sounds in the transmitted audio when the new frequency is programmed*. The iPod display reflects the change when the memory button is released by showing which memory button was pressed followed by the frequency saved in that memory position.
��� Stereo/Mono Selection Transmitting music in stereo generally gives you the highest-quality listening experience. However, you may get better FM signal reception by changing the transmission to mono. The TuneFM transmits in stereo mode by default.
Troubleshooting Issue – The audio is distorted. Solution Tune your car stereo and the TuneFM to a different frequency. Issue – I am unable to get clear FM reception. Solution 1 Tune your car stereo and the TuneFM to a different frequency. Solution 2 In some instances, lowering the car antenna (available in some cars) improves the clarity of the TuneFM’s signal. Solution 3 Change the stereo/mono setting to mono mode. This may improve signal reception, but the audio will be monaural instead of stereo.
Troubleshooting Issue – iPod playback stays paused after I’ve changed a setting on the TuneFM. Solution Simply press the “Play/Pause” button on your iPod to resume playback. Issue – The TuneFM does not appear to be saving my settings. Solution Be sure NOT to remove the iPod from the cradle or remove power to the TuneFM while adjusting the TuneFM settings. Your settings are stored in memory when the iPod screen returns to the iPod Main Menu.
Troubleshooting Issue – My iPod does not seem to be charging. Solution 1 Make sure that the TuneFM is correctly connected to your car’s power outlet with the included Auto Power Cord. Solution 2 Ensure that your car’s power outlet is receiving power. Some cars are designed so that power is not provided to the power outlet unless the car is in ignition mode or the engine is started. If none of these solutions solves the problem, the fuse in the Auto Power Cord might be burned out and need to be replaced.
Warning DO NOT INSERT ANY OBJECTS OTHER THAN THE CIGARETTE-LIGHTER ADAPTER INTO THE POWER OUTLET OF THE CAR WITHOUT DISCONNECTING THE BATTERY OF THE CAR FIRST. FAILURE TO OBSERVE THIS SAFETY WARNING CAN RESULT IN POSSIBLE INJURY OR PROPERTY DAMAGE. Belkin does not assume any responsibility for personal injury or property damage incurred due to hazardous driving as a result of interaction with the TuneFM, the iPod, or the power outlet of the car.
