high-pitched squeal or the sound is otherwise distorted, a ground loop isolator can eliminate the problem. These are available at many electronics stores. For example, Radio Shackoffers an effec- tive isolator, catalog number 270-054. This or other ground loop isolators may require additional cable adapters to connect with the iWAY and your radio. Consult your electronics retailer for help in determining the parts you may need for your system.

2.Next, find the auxiliary line input on your car's stereo. As we men- tioned before, this is usually located on the back of the stereo. Consult your vehicle's owner's manual for details on properly removing the in- stalled stereo or any dash components necessary to access it.

3.Plug the direct cable connection's stereo line-in plug into the input socket on your stereo. Standard audio adapters may be necessary.

4.Attach the power wires to your vehicle's power supply. To protect your GPS unit, we recommend you install an inline 3-amp fuse on the red (+ positive) wire. Fuses and various wire-splicing connectors are available at consumer electronics stores.

5.Finally, attach the power plug to the power socket on the back of your iWAY. Turn on your car and press the POWER button on the front of the iWAY. If you've connected everything correctly, the iWAY should turn on, running directly off your car's power supply.

Now switch your stereo to its auxiliary line input and press the SPEAK button on the iWAY. You should hear the current turn-by-turn instruc- tion (probably "Not navigating") through your car's stereo.

Resolving Audio Distortion in iWAY Audio Output

Depending on your stereo connection, you may experience audible dis- tortion when you play iWAY audio through your car's stereo. Different audio connections (such as FM modulators or direct line connections) are able to handle varying levels of audio signal before distortion be- comes an issue. If you do experience significant audio distortion, simply follow the steps in these paragraphs to correct it.

We have designed the iWAY to give you the very best sound from your stereo system. You probably won't have any problem with audio distor- tion. However, if you do, once you have properly configured these con- trols, the iWAY will remember the settings you've chosen and you shouldn't have to adjust them again.

To resolve audio distortion when playing back songs there are several things you can try.

1.If you use an FM modulator that requires batteries, make sure that it has fresh batteries. This step alone may solve the problem.
