iPod docking

Your sound system has an iPod dock facility which allows you to play digital audio files and video soundtracks held on your iPod using the sound system's loudspeakers.

Your sound system uses the iPod Universal Dock connector developed for use with most iPods. Recent models of iPod are supplied with Universal Dock Adapter inserts which ensure correct alignment of the iPod with the electrical connector. Earlier models of iPod were not supplied with the necessary inserts and so your Sound 66 is supplied with inserts type 1-7. Should you require an insert to use your iPod with your sound system, then please contact an iPod accessories supplier.

Important: To avoid possible damage to your iPod, do not use your iPod with the product without the correct adapter fitted to the sound system.

Docking your iPod

1.Ensure that the sound system is in standby. Carefully remove the iPod dock connector cover from the top of your sound system.

2.Place the iPod docking Adapter (see above) into the iPod docking recess so that it is securely seated.

3.Carefully place your iPod onto the Universal Dock connector.

4.Press the On / Standby button to switch on your sound system.

5.To select the iPod mode press the iPod button until "IPOD" shows on the display. If it was previously playing, your iPod will switch on and continue playing from where it was previously stopped.

Note: Your sound system is able to recharge your iPod's internal battery. Recharging does not take place while your sound system is using DAB or FM radio. Your iPod will use its backlight settings as configured. If these need changing, use the Settings menu on your iPod.
