No part of thissystem should obstruct the driver’s view of the road orvehicle controls or information displays necessary forsafely operating the vehicle. The text display should bepositioned to eliminate glare and reflections, and should beas close as possible to the driver’s normal line of sight.Drive + Play ComponentsDrive + Play consists of three main components: Text Display,Control Knob and Electronics Enclosure. They operate togetheras a system to make controlling your iPod easy, and to route theaudio signal to your mobile audio system. All three componentsmust be installed. You can choose wireless FM transmission,wired FM transmission (adaptor sold separately), or direct con-nection of the line-output audio signal for the audio interface.Text Display LocationThe Text Display shows current iPod information and is similarto the display on your iPod. It comes with a three-positionpivot arm for virtually limitless viewing adjustment. You caninstall the unit in a variety of locations, as long as the pro-posed site offers a direct view of the display. For easiest view-ing, mount the unit near other instrument-panel gauges or ontop of the dashboard.Control Knob LocationThe Control Knob allows you to control the iPod much like theiPod Click Wheel. The unit comes with three interchangeablebases so you can choose the most comfortable operation angle.Ideally, you should install the Control Knob in a location that pro-vides comfortable access while driving where you can easily feeland operate it without taking your eyes off the road.continued on next page...INSTALLATION 3INSTALLATIONInstall Text DisplayInstall Control KnobInstallElectronicsEnclosure(on windshieldglass)(on gaugespanel) (on dash)(on dash)(on console)(underseat)(behindradio)(in glovebox)Drive+Play OM revB.qxd 9/14/05 7:20 PM Page 3
Choosing Installation Locations (continued)Electronics Enclosure LocationThe Electronics Enclosure contains the wireless FM transmitterand the power supply for the three components. You can installit under a seat, in the center console compartment, or in theglove box. If possible, select a site that provides both conven-ient access to the enclosure and easy cable routing. Drive + Play also provides an audio interface to a cell phone,satellite radio, or any other device that outputs a low-levelaudio signal using the Aux In jack. When using the AuxiliaryInput feature, select a mounting site for the electronics enclo-sure that provides easy access to the Aux In jack. Otherwise,you will need to purchase a 3.5mm stereo extension cable fora longer cable run (see Wiring Diagram on page 5).iPod LocationWith this system, you can place your iPod in any location thatallows you to conveniently connect it to the Drive + Play iPodcable. Since you don’t have to view the iPod or use its controls,you can place it inside the center console compartment, theglove box, or another hidden site.NOTE: Since an iPod can get hot during operation, avoidtightly enclosed areas. Review “About Operating and StorageTemperatures” in your iPod’s User’s Guide.Planning the InstallationIMPORTANT: When routing wires from any of the compo-nents to the electronics enclosure, be sure to route themaway from any moving parts such as the gear-shiftlevers, pedals, parking brake and steering column.Temporarily place the main components at their proposedsites and lay out their interconnect cables to judge the cableroutes (see Wiring Diagram on page 5 for wiring options). If acable comes up short, try moving one or more componentsto find a better run. Next, inspect the vehicle’s interiorassembly and locate areas where cables can be hidden ortucked into seams (e.g., under the center console housing,along body panel, etc.). Once you have found the ideal cableruns and component locations, mark the sites with a penciland continue with the installation.Choosing an Audio InterfaceReferring to the Wiring Diagram on the next page, you caninterface the Drive + Play’s audio output to your mobile audiosystem in three ways:Wireless FM TransmissionThis method is the most convenient and requires the leastwiring. After setup, you simply tune your radio to the assignedFM frequency to listen to your iPod. Drive + Play has a built-inFM transmitter and its software provides a choice of five fixedFM frequencies or a tunable frequency for areas where noneof the fixed frequency selections are available. See InitialSetup on page 9 for details.Wired FM TransmissionFor better quality FM transmission performance, consider purchasing our Wired FM Adaptor for direct connection (viathe Antenna jack on the Electronics Enclosure) to your radio’santenna input (see Wiring Diagram on the next page).NOTE: Depending on your vehicle model, antenna plug adaptors may be required to connect the Wired FM Adaptorto your radio and antenna.Connecting to Audio OutThis method provides the best sound quality, but involves morewiring. After making the connections and setup, you will selectAuxiliary Input or CD Changer on your audio system to listen toyour iPod. See Initial Setup on page 9 for details.NOTE: In order to use the Audio Out, your audio system musthave an auxiliary input jack or a CD changer input. A third-party interface is required for a CD changer interface. If yoursystem has neither feature, FM transmission is the onlychoice for the audio interface. Choosing a Power InterfaceReferring to the Wiring Diagram on the next page, you canconnect Drive + Play’s power connections to your vehicle’selectrical system in one of two ways:Removable 12-Volt Accessory Power Cable WithCigarette Lighter AdaptorThis power interface is the most convenient, since the powercable can be simply plugged into the vehicle’s cigarettelighter outlet. No additional wiring is required. The cigarettelighter adaptor is fuse-protected, and the fuse can bechanged by removing the adaptor’s end nut.NOTE: If your cigarette lighter works even when the car’signition switch is in the “off” position, you’ll have to turnDrive + Play on manually. It can be turned off manually, or itwill shut off automatically after one hour of inactivity.4 INSTALLATIONDrive+Play OM revB.qxd 9/14/05 7:20 PM Page 4
Wiring DiagramDirect Connection of the 12-Volt Power Harness With In-Line Fuse HolderUse this method when you want a permanent power connec-tion to the vehicle. Also, by connecting the harness’s red wireto the ignition switch’s ACC terminal, Drive + Play will turn onor off with the vehicle’s ignition (ACC) switch. An in-line fuseholder provides protection for the unit.IMPORTANT: Replace the in-line fuse only with one of thesame type and rating.INSTALLATION 5INSTALLATIONAuxiliary Device(optional)Third-PartyCD ChangerInterface(optional)Text DisplayBackSide+12Vdc = yellowCD Changer L/R InAux.
