your vent to keep your iPod at eye level, without interfering with  
your driving.

Using myTune FM  
Customizing myTune FM  
To customize myTune FM to dock your iPod, you must adhere two of the provided  
sizing pads onto myTune FM if you are using any iPod except iPod mini. If using  
iPod mini, you must replace the mounting clip with the iPod mini mounting clip.  
To attach sizing pads:  
1. If applicable, peel the paper from the appropriate sizing  
pad pair and adhere each of the two pads onto one of  
the circles on the back plate of myTune FM.

Pads  
To replace the mounting clip:  
1. If using iPod mini, remove the attached arms by gently  
pushing one arm toward the back of myTune FM. Snap  
the myTune FM mini mounting clip into its place.  
Mounting myTune FM  
myTune FM snaps onto the air vents in your car. To accommodate different air  
vent orientations, the mounting clip on the back of myTune FM swivels to a  
horizontal or vertical position. You can leave myTune FM mounted in your car, and  
dock iPod in myTune FM when you’re ready to listen to your tunes on the radio.

To mount myTune FM on your air vent:  
1. If your air vents have horizontal flaps, simply attach  
the mounting clip to the vent flap. If your air vents  
have vertical flaps, twist the mounting clip to the  
vertical position, and attach the mounting clip to the  
vent flap.  
2. With one end plugged into myTune FM, insert the  
power adapter into the 12V power outlet (lighter  
adapter) in your car. The blue light on the power  
adapter will turn on to indicate that the adapter is  
plugged in.  
To dock iPod into myTune FM:  
1. Slide iPod down the face of myTune FM as shown  
until the iPod dock connector is firmly inserted in  
to the 30-pin myTune FM  
connecter. The arms will hold  
iPod in place. The iPod mini  
will slide between the frontmost  
brackets on the mini clip.  
2. To remove iPod, gently slide  
iPod up the face of myTune FM.

USER GUIDE  
Playing iPod Music on an FM Radio  
To play your iPod music on your car radio, you must first select the channel on  
myTune FM, and then select the same channel on your FM radio. The seven  
pre-set channels available on myTune FM are CH1, CH2, 88.1, 88.3, 88.5, 88.7,  
and 88.9. CH1 and CH2 are market-dependent channels. The default channels for  
these two selections are 87.7 (CH1) and 87.9 (CH2).  
A green light indicates that the channel selected is on the top  
row, while an amber light indicates the selected channel is  
on the bottom row. The last channel  
in the bottom row is not used.

FM radio and select 87.7 on your dial.

4. If the reception on the selected channel is not clear, press the channel selector  
on the bottom of myTune FM to select the next channel. An LED will light to  
indicate the channel selection. Each time you press the button, the selection  
will change, moving across the channels on the front of myTune FM from left  
to right, top to bottom. Channels on the top row are indicated by a green LED,  
while channels on the bottom row are indicated by an amber LED.  
5. Change the FM radio station to the channel set on myTune FM. You will hear  
the music broadcast on your car radio.  
6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 until you identify the optimum FM channel in your area.  
7. When you’re done listening, switch the power button to OFF. Your iPod will  
continue to charge as long as myTune FM is connected to the power outlet  
(and the car is on), and your iPod is not fully charged.  
Charging iPod  
For your convenience, you can charge iPod while using myTune FM. While  
myTune FM is plugged into the power outlet (and the car is on), the docked iPod  
will be charged until the battery capacity is full.  
To charge iPod:  
1. Dock iPod into myTune FM while it is connected to the car power outlet. iPod  
will charge as long as the car is on.

USER GUIDE  
Downloading Music  
myTune FM includes a USB 2.0 port that enables you to connect directly from  
myTune FM to your notebook computer to download and manage music. A  
separate USB 2.0 cable is required.  
To download music:  
1. With iPod docked into myTune FM (which is connected to the car power  
outlet), plug a USB 2.0 cable (not included) into the USB port on the bottom  
of myTune FM.  
2. Plug the opposite end of the cable into  
the USB 2.0 port on your notebook computer.  
3. Download and manage music  
with iPod as you would normally.

Troubleshooting  
Issue  
Solution  
1. Ensure that the FM channel on the radio is the  
same as that selected on myTune FM.  
The reception is not  
clear on the channel.  
2. Select a different FM channel on your radio and  
myTune FM.  
iPod music isn’t  
playing on the  
FM radio.  
1. Ensure the power switch (on the bottom of  
myTune FM) is switched to ON.  
2. Ensure that the FM channel on the radio is the  
same as that selected on myTune FM.  
1. Check the cable connection. Unplug the cable at  
both ends and make sure no foreign objects are in  
the USB port, and then plug in the cable.  
Nothing happens  
when iPod is  
connected to  
your computer.  
2. Ensure that you have installed the software from  
the iPod CD, and that you are using the required  
computer and software. See the iPod User’s Guide.  
3. Ensure that the USB port on your computer is  
USB 2.0 and not USB 1.1, which is not supported  
and is significantly slower than the USB 2.0  
connection.
