Attention installer! Please read the following!

DICE strongly recommends that the unit be installed in an easily accessible place! DO NOT PLACE IT BEHIND THE RADIO AND DO NOT HIDE UNDER CARPET!

Whether the unit is professionally or self installed, put the module where you, the end user can get to it easily in the future. (Have the installer show you where the interface module is installed.)

Installing the module behind the radio will make it difcult to:

-Add possible future upgrades, changing software, adding new features, improving operation;

-Access the AUX input on the module to attach any audio device;

-Access the DIP switches located on the module;

-Remove the unit in case of failure.

MAKE SURE THAT THE MODULE IS IN AN ACCESSIBLE PLACE!

iPod content browsing

By default, the interface creates a Playlist having a name that is the same

as the name of the iPod. This Playlist is the very rst on the list of Playlists

shown while browsing in Playlist mode. This Playlist contains all the songs on the iPod. Once a Playlist is selected an Artist may be selected within that Playlist using the Artist Mode. Albums by the selected Artist within the selected Playlist may be selected in Album Mode. “ALL ARTIST” and “ALL ALBUM” designate all available content in those categories.

Charging

The interface automatically charges the battery of the iPod when connected and your vehicle ignition key is in the ACC/ON position.

Internet Radio Application support (iPhone/iPod touch)

This kit includes support for internet radio streaming apps available on the iTunes® Store. Thousands of stations can be streamed through data connections. Supported apps include Livio Car Internet Radio, Pandora, iHeart Radio and more. Supported features such as text display on screen, and next/previous track functions will vary by app.

To learn more about each app specically, please visit the website for the

app you need information about.

Data connection requirements (3G/4G/WiFi)

Users must have an active wireless data connection in order to stream music from an app while in the car. Data connections including “3G” or “4G” through wireless carriers, or a third party wireless Internet access point connected to your mobile device through WiFi will work. Because this app requires a data connection, it will only work on connected devices such as the iPhone and iPod touch.

Controlling Internet Radio Apps

NOTE: The following features may not be supported by all apps. For demonstration purposes the following examples will show the features for the Livio Car Internet Radio app.

The app must be active on the screen of the device. To do so, simply tap the app’s icon and it will load.

Next/previous TRACK buttons execute application specic features such as skipping stream or cycling between station presets. DISC/ PRESET (1-6) buttons are associated with station presets when used

with the Livio Car Internet Radio application.

iPhone operating system iOS5 enabled application developers to share the “now playing” screen information. For example, when using the Pandora App, you will see artist, album and song information on the radio’s screen. When using an application that doesn’t implement this feature, or running iOS4, only the name of the application will be shown.

Please note that although iOS 4 (4.2.1) is supported on iPhone 3G and iTouch 2nd generation, applications do not run in the background. As such, loading the app takes longer than on devices where the app is present in the background.

If your listening experience is interrupted by a call, under most conditions, the app will resume playback at the end of the call.

Music playback apps running on your iPhone are sent to background automatically when the home button of the phone is pressed, but the music playback itself is not stopped.

To resume playback of your iPod music library, stop Livio playback by tapping on the screen below the Livio Radio logo. An icon representing “stop” will show on the main Livio screen. Press the home button to send the application to the background. (Other apps may need to be terminated manually. Please see next page.)

A few seconds after this, the iPod music playback application will reinitialize itself and become active again if the iPod was locked when it was connected to the kit. (This is indicated by an Accessory Connected message being shown when the iPod icon is tapped.)

If the iPod was in unlocked state when it was connected to the kit, press the play button on the iPod application.

Text display from the Internet Radio App

Text that scrolls across the radio’s screen is associated with the stream shown on the radio and displays current song or station information. Stream must be playing before information on the display is updated.

Terminate (kill) the App

If you need to terminate (kill) the app please follow the steps below:

1. Double-tap on the home button of the iPhone to bring up the list of running apps. If you don’t see the app’s icon right away, swipe the screen left or right to locate it. Note: If you do not see such task bar but rather a music control popup then you have an iOS device that does not support background run of apps, therefore this section is not applicable to you.

2. Press and hold the icon of the app until a red minus icon shows.

3. Tap the red minus icon shown on top of the app.

4. This will close the app.

5. In a few seconds, the iPod music playback app should reinitialize itself and become active again. This can

be veried by going back to the list of running apps and swiping the screen unit the music control section is

shown. The iPod app icon next to the music control sections shows that iPod is your audio source.

Internet Radio App settings

Many radio stations offer lower bitrates. Selecting streams with a lower bitrate will reduce data usage and may reduce stream interruptions during the drive. For example with the Livio Car Internet Radio app, to adjust bitrates manually, users can: Go to the Setting menu of the device, select the Livio Radio settings the change

the Maximum Bitrate Filter and set it to 64K. Other settings such as Buffer time and Reliability lter may also

help in getting a more stable connection.

Auxiliary audio source (only with optional AUX connector)

The DUO AUX cable (ACC-106-AUX) can be used to connect an auxiliary device, such as an MP3 player, DVD player or other audio source.

The auxiliary audio source can be accessed in both CDC and SAT emulation modes.

To access AUX audio source:

- Plug the mini DIN connector of the AUX adapter cable into the SIRIUS receptacle and connect the 1/8” mini stereo jack to the sound output of your audio device.

- Enter AUX mode (see pg. 14 or pg. 17).

- All music playback is controlled through your audio device.

Troubleshooting

Problem Solution

Text is not displaying in selected emulation.

iPod does not charge.

Music is distorted or sound level is too low with iPod connected.

Why is the interface not controlling the iPod?

Cannot control the iPod or other Duo audio source.

Sirius tuner can’t be selected.

Identify your audio system rst and set switches accordingly on Silverline DUO module. Use the DISP button on radio/display to toggle text elds. CD

emulation has no text display.

Check all connections. See if iPod charges while connected to computer or wall charger. You may need to reset the iPod.

Make sure all EQ and BASS boost options are turned off on your iPod. Refer to page 14 or 17 to adjust gain level.

Make sure that an iPod case is not preventing the dock connector from being fully seated. Disconnect and reconnect the device. If iPod is not responding please try resetting it.

If you entered settings mode in CDC emulation and you see anything other than EX 1: XX, you will need to exit from settings mode by pressing the DISC up/down buttons until EX 1 is reached.

Kit must be used in SAT emulation mode. Ensure the cable connecting SIRIUS tuner is securely connected to the correct receptacle.

Problem Solution

No audio from iPod source.

Why does the radio display show “EMPTY/STOP” and no music plays?

Cannot select the interface.

Radio/steering wheel controls do not operate iPod.

Why does the radio display EX 1:99?

Why does category read “PRESELCTD”?

Reset the iPod. Verify proper connection to iPod/interface. Check for compatibility.

The iPod has reached the end of a playlist. Please select a new song selection from the iPod.

Ensure the cable connecting DUO is securely connected to the correct receptacle. Verify that the correct button is used to access the interface.

Reset iPod and make sure the most recent iPod rmware is installed. Check

vehicle user manual on how steering wheel controls work, long presses may toggle alternate function.

This indicates AUX mode is being accessed. To get to the iPod source, go to FM, and then go back to CDC mode and immediately press the next/previous track buttons until EX 1: 1 is shown (iPod mode).

Playback of content selected on the iPod before connected to the interface continues until new content is selected.
