ADJUSTING HOMEDOCK DELUXE TO FIT YOUR IPOD

The HomeDock Deluxe can fit any dockable iPod. It can even be used with many iPod cases left on. The first time you use your iPod, and if you ever use another size iPod, you should adjust the HomeDock’s Support Stand to accommodate your particular iPod. Follow these steps to do so.

1. Loosen the Support Stand Screw and slide the Support Stand as far back as it can go.

2.Connect your iPod by carefully low- ering it onto the iPod dock connec- tor of the HomeDock Deluxe.

3. Slide the Support Stand toward the iPod until the iPod is gently resting against the Support Stand Pad. The back of the iPod should be parallel with the Support Stand and not leaning more forward or backward.

4.Tighten the Support Stand Screw to keep in in place.
