The TuneFM transmitter function automatically turns on when the iPod is connected. It automatically turns off when the iPod is removed.1. Tune your stereo frequency to a channel with a weak broadcast signal. The ideal channel is one that is not broadcasting a radio program, or is doing so weakly.2. Insert the TuneFM into your iPod nano. The iPod backlight will turn on and the current transmitter frequency will be displayed on the iPod screen.3. Press the ▲ or ▼ button on the TuneFM to select the transmission frequency chosen in step 1. The frequency will be visible on the iPod nano’s screen. Pressing and holding either button will provide faster tuning.4. After displaying the current frequency for five seconds, the iPod screen will return to the iPod Main Menu. This happens whenever you make changes to the TuneFM’s settings. All settings—including transmission frequency and stereo/mono control settings—are permanently stored in memory at this time.Note: iPod playback will pause momentarily when entering and exiting the TuneFM control menu. Playback will quickly resume.Using the TuneFM TransmitterUsing the TuneFM Transmitter | 03

To transmit over one of your preset frequencies, momentarily press “1”, “2”, ”3”, or “4”. This will instantly tune the FM transmitter to the frequency stored in that preset.Storing and Using Presets | 05Storing and Using Presets

However, you may get better FM signal reception by changing the transmission to mono. The TuneFM transmits in stereo mode by default. We suggest that you switch from stereo to mono transmission only if your car stereo is NOT receiving a clear signal from the TuneFM, or if you are listening to mono recordings such as audio books.You can access the stereo/mono transmission menu by pressing the “1” and “3” buttons simultaneously for two seconds. The TuneFM then displays the current mode setting, which is represented by “MONO” or “ST”.You can change the mode by pressing the up or down arrows. Either arrow will change between the two modes. The new setting takes effect immediately.To accept your mode selection, press one of the memory preset buttons, or simply wait for the iPod screen to return to the iPod Main Menu.
Issue – The audio is distorted.Solution 1Decrease the volume of your iPod nano until you no longer hear distortion. Keeping the iPod nano volume level at or below three-fourths of the maximum should prevent audio distortion.Solution 2Tune your car stereo and the TuneFM to a different frequency.Issue – I am unable to get clear FM reception.Solution 1Tune your car stereo and the TuneFM to a different frequency.Solution 2In some instances, lowering the car antenna (available in some cars) improves the clarity of the TuneFM’s signal.Solution 3Change the stereo/mono setting to mono mode. This may improve signal reception, but the audio will be monaural instead of stereo.Solution 4If used indoors, attach or reposition the antennae on the stereo receiver.Troubleshooting | 07Troubleshooting

Issue – When I attach a USB cable from my computer to the TuneFM, my computer does not recognize that the iPod nano is attached.SolutionThe USB connector on the TuneFM can only be used to charge the iPod. TroubleshootingTroubleshooting
Issue – My iPod nano does not seem to be charging. Solution 1Make sure that the TuneFM is correctly connected to your car’s power outlet with the included Auto Power Cord. Solution 2Ensure that your car’s power outlet is receiving power. Some cars are designed so that power is not provided to the power outlet unless the car is in ignition mode or the engine is started. If none of these solutions solves the problem, the fuse in the Auto Power Cord might be burned out and need to be replaced.Troubleshooting | 09Troubleshooting
