Getting Started
1.1 Introduction
Thank you for purchasing Peripheral Electronics’® Audio2car interface. The
Audio2car is designed to provide endless hours of listening pleasure through most
vehicles’ factory radios. To ensure that your Mobile Device performs correctly in
your car or truck, we recommend that you read this entire manual before attempting
installation of the Audio2car interface .
The Audio2car interface will allow you to connect your Mobile Device to a factory
radio that has the ability to control a CD changer. The Audio2car is designed to be
used with all iPods, mp3 players, portable DVD players, video game systems and
any other portable device with traditional audio outputs.
1.2 Precautions
(Important, Please Read)
PREVENTING DAMAGE TO YOUR VEHICLE OR MOBILE DEVICE.
To eliminate the risk of an electrical short, we recommend disconnecting the car
battery in most vehicles, except in the following situations:
• Vehicles equipped with on-board navigation should not have the car’s battery
disconnected. Doing so may cause loss of memory settings. These settings
would then have to be reprogrammed by an authorized car dealer for a fee to
be paid by the vehicle’s owner. For these vehicles, we recommend extreme
caution when handling exposed 12V power or ground wires/connectors.
• Vehicles that incorporate a security-code protecting the radio. If the car’s battery
or the radio’s power plugs are disconnected, the radio will not operate without
re-entering the security-code. If you have access to the security-code, feel
comfortable disconnecting the battery and the radio’s power connectors. Other
wise, do not disconnect the battery and exercise extreme caution while handling
exposed 12V power or ground wires/connectors.
PROPER MOUNTING LOCATION
Securely install the interface in a location free from; heat, humidity, moving parts or
direct sunlight. Beware of hot-air flow from your vehicle’s climate control system.
We recommend securing the interface to a suitable location, free of sharp metal
edges, using; double sided tape, Velcro or wire ties.
