Using Your TransDock

Setting Up Your TransDock Deluxe

1. Connect the Charger Arm to the TransDock Deluxe Cradle.

Insert the flat side of the Charger Arm into the back of the TransDock Deluxe Cradle body and turn 90 degrees clockwise to lock it into place. Do not use the included Extension Arm until you have determined that you’ll need it to fit TransDock Deluxe into your car. Most cars will do fine with just the shorter Charger Arm.

2. Adjust your TransDock Deluxe to ﬁt into your auto power outlet and plug it in.

Loosen the Charger Arm knobs to adjust the angle of the TransDock Deluxe for the best placement and access to your iPod. Adjusting the arm angles is easier when the TransDock Deluxe is not plugged into the auto power outlet. When you’ve found a good fit, tighten the knobs back up and then plug the TransDock Deluxe into your auto power outlet. If you have trouble finding a comfortable position for the TransDock Deluxe, or it happens to block controls in your car, use the TransDock Deluxe Extension Arm to achieve a more ideal position.

3. Secure your TransDock Deluxe Remote Control to your car’s steering wheel using the included Steering Wheel Cradle and Velcro Strap.

You can position the steering wheel cradle anywhere you want on the wheel, but along the inside of the wheel nearest your thumb works best.

4. Tune your car stereo to 88.5 FM.

This is the initial broadcast frequency for the TransDock Deluxe. If your TransDock Deluxe is already plugged in, you should hear silence. If 88.5 is not an empty frequency in your area (i.e. there is music or talk already on that station in your area) you may

About the DLO TransDock

The TransDock Deluxe is a “mini” radio transmitter that broadcasts your iPod or iPod nano’s audio through the FM radio in your car, truck, boat – anything that has a 12v auto power outlet. It charges the battery in your iPod while cradling it for easy access in your car. The TransDock Deluxe includes a powerful RF remote control that easily attaches to your steering wheel so you can control your iPod’s playback and navigation without taking your eyes off the road. It features a USB port on the bottom so you can charge devices such as cell phones, PDA or gaming systems using the proper cable. You can also broadcast audio from all kinds of digital devices over your car stereo with the convenient AuxIn Port. If that’s not enough, the TransDock Deluxe features an AV-Out Port so you can watch iPod videos over a portable video system in a car or van.
