Tips
Audio System Controls
• RDM (Random) Button: (on applicable models) Push
the RDM (Random) button on the audio system to
shuffle all songs within the selected category/play
mode. For example, if you select and play a playlist
(Disc 1) and then press the RDM button, Music Link
will shuffle all songs within that playlist in random order.
NOTE: The RDM button does not work while Music
Link is in the shuffle all songs (Disc 6) play mode.
iTunes Settings
• For best results, set your iPod to synchronize
manually. (Go to Edit, then Preferences, click on the
iPod tab and select "Manually manage songs and
playlists".) If you select "Automatically update all songs
and playlists," you may hear voice prompts when you
shuffle songs on your iPod. If you select
"Automatically update selected playlists only," make
sure you check all of the playlists that begin with
ZZZTTS; otherwise running Acura TTS will not update
all of the music on your iPod.
• Check the "Connect to Internet when needed"
check box in the iTunes preferences. (Go to Edit,
then Preferences, and click on the General tab.) With
this feature, when you load a store-bought music CD
on your computer, iTunes automatically looks up and
fills in the info tags for every song on the disc. This
feature not only helps you organize your music
accurately, it also saves time.
• Do not name your playlists "Podcasts." Doing so
may cause undesirable effects during searches
because iPod uses this name for podcasting.
• Keeping the TTS files (playlists that begin with
ZZZTTS) in iTunes makes Acura TTS updates
quicker. If you delete these files, Acura TTS will need
to regenerate them the next time it runs. However,
with the TTS files in iTunes, Acura TTS only needs to
generate TTS files for any new music on your iPod.
