recent version of firmware from Apple. This is done on your computer. To update the

Follow the directions on the website to complete the download. There is no charge for
this update.

of an electrical short, we recommend disconnecting the vehicle’s battery prior to
installation. If you do not feel comfortable making these connections, we suggest
you seek professional installation. We recommend that the iPod be disconnected
from the interface when the vehicle is not in use.

sharp metal edges or direct sunlight. We recommend securing the interface to a
