Using iPod

Using the optional iPod Dock, you can play music from iPod over external powered

speakers or a home stereo. You need an audio cable with a standard 3.5 millimeter

stereo miniplug (many external speakers have this type of cable attached).

To play music from iPod using the Dock:

1

Place iPod in the Dock.

2

Connect the speakers or stereo to the Dock Line Out port using an audio cable with a

3.5 millimeter stereo miniplug.

3

Use the iPod controls to play a song.

When the Dock is connected to an external audio source, use the volume controls on

the external source to change the volume.
