DLO TRANSPOD USER MANUAL

Using Your TransDock Classic

About the DLO TransDock Classic

TransDock Classic is basically a radio station that broadcasts your iPod audio

to the FM radio in your car, truck, boat – anything that has a 12v auto power

outlet and FM radio. TransDock Classic also charges and cradles your iPod,

providing easy access to your iPod in your car.

TransDock Classic has two triangular buttons on either side of the LCD screen

for easy tuning. Other features include four programmable presets, control-

lable LCD backlight, Aux-In jack, Line-Out port, and power control.

Setting Up Your TransDock Classic

1. Connect the Charger Arm to TransDock Classic.

Insert the flat side of the Charger Arm into the back of TransDock Classic

and turn it 90 degrees clockwise to lock the Charger Arm into place. Do

not use the included Extension Arm until you have determined that you’ll

need it to fit TransDock Classic into your car. TransDock Classic fits in

most cars with just the shorter Charger Arm.

2. Adjust TransDock Classic to fit your car’s power outlet and plug it in.

Loosen the Charger Arm knobs to adjust the angle of TransDock Classic

for the best placement and access to your iPod. Adjusting the arm angles

is easier when TransDock Classic is not plugged into your car’s power out-

let. When you’ve found a good fit, tighten the knobs again and then plug

TransDock Classic into your car’s power outlet. If you have trouble finding

a comfortable position for TransDock Classic, or it happens to block con-

trols in your car, use the Extension Arm to achieve the optimum position.

3. Tune your car stereo to 88.5 FM.

88.5 FM is the default broadcast frequency for TransDock Classic. If your

TransDock Classic is already plugged in, there should be silence. If 88.5 is

not an empty frequency in your area (i.e. there is music or talk already on

that station), you may hear static. Try finding another station in your area

with less interference. For help doing this, please read

Finding Empty

Radio Frequencies [pg 8]

or vist

to find the best frequen-

cy in your area.

4. Slide your iPod into TransDock Classic and press Play.

• For a thinner iPod (80GB iPod classic for example), remove any insert

and attach the included Fit Pad for a perfect fit. Then, slide in your iPod.

• For a larger iPod (160GB iPod classic) - remove any insert, then slide in

your iPod.

• For 3G iPod nano owners - use the included 3G nano Insert to securely

fit your 3G iPod nano into TransDock Classic.

• For 2G iPod nano owners - use the included 2G nano Insert to securely

fit your 2G iPod nano into TransDock Classic.

You can now enjoy your iPod audio played on your car stereo, while your iPod

is charging and securely cradled in your car. To control your iPod audio, use the

iPod click wheel, just as you normally would. To adjust the volume of your iPod

audio, use your car stereo’s volume control, not the volume on your iPod. Your

TransDock Classic is using the superior line-out audio from the bottom of your

iPod, which is not controlled by your iPod click wheel.
