WARNING To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not expose the unit to rain or moisture. To avoid electrical shock, do not open the cabinet. Refer servicing to qualified personnel only. Do not install the appliance in a confined space, such as a bookcase or built-in cabinet. To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not place objects filled with liquids, such as vases, on the apparatus. You are cautioned that any changes or modifications not expressly approved in this manual could void your authority to operate this equipment. Note This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1)this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2)this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. Features With this unit, you can enjoy listening to audio played on portable audio devices through a car FM radio. Music from portable devices such as a MD, CD, or Network Walkman, etc., is transmitted to the car’s FM radio via FM radio waves. Stable clear sound • Using the flexible transmitting antenna, it is possible to transmit a stable FM radio wave in any kind of car. • Digital frequency selection, rather than analog, assures a more stable and clear transmission. Easy operation with the frequency select dial Select from 12 FM radio frequencies (channels) to transmit. No dry batteries This unit connects to a 12V or 24V DC car battery (cigarette lighter socket), available in many types of cars and trucks. “Walkman” and “WALKMAN” are registered trademarks of Sony Corporation. Precautions • Do not attempt to connect this unit, or to operate this unit, a portable audio device, or a car radio while driving or waiting at a traffic signal. Park in a safe place first. • Unplug this unit from the cigarette lighter socket whenever the engine of the car is not running. Depending on the car type, even if the ignition key is off, the power supply may not turn off automatically. In this case, this may cause unnecessary car battery consumption. • When not in use, unplug this unit from the cigarette lighter socket and store in a safe place where it will not interfere with your driving or become entangled in parts of the car interior (seat, door, etc.). • Be sure to fully secure the portable audio device connected to the unit to avoid moving when braking. • Route the antenna cable or signal cable properly so that they will not interfere with your driving or become entangled in parts of the car interior (seat, door, etc.). • Never yank or pull the antenna cable or signal cable. This may cause malfunctions or wire breaks. • Do not drop or hit the unit. This may cause malfunctions. Install the unit 1Rotate the frequency select dial to select the same frequency that you set on the car radio. The selected frequency appears in the frequency display window. The mark appears at the transition point between a low frequency band (88.1MHz~88.9MHz) and a high frequency band (106.7MHz~107.9MHz). See the mark as a borderline for high frequency and low frequency. 2Connect the stereo mini plug to the LINE OUT jack on the portable audio device. If there is no LINE OUT jack on the portable audio device, connect it to the headphone jack. How to use the INPUT LEVEL switch HIGH: Use HIGH level for general use. LOW: If you connect to the headphone jack on the portable audio device and the sound level is still low even if the volume is turned up, use LOW level. 3Insert this unit into the cigarette lighter socket. 4Start playback on the portable audio device. 5Place the antenna cable inside the car to improve the reception. Notes • Place the antenna cable close to the car antenna if the reception is poor. This may help to improve the reception. • Place the antenna cable in a manner that does not disturb your driving and is out of the reach of children. • Route the cables so that they do not interfere with your driving. • Distortion or jamming may be due to external interference, depending on the area. If reception is affected, try selecting another better frequency. • For details about the car radio antenna, refer to the car operating instructions. • Place this unit in a manner that will not hinder the airbag function in an emergency. <Example of antenna cable positioning when the car radio antenna is at the front of the car> <Example of antenna cable positioning when the car radio antenna is at the back of the car> These are just sample cases. Adjust the antenna for best reception, depending on your car. 3 2 Portable audio device to a cigarette lighter socket Notes • Do not attempt to connect this unit, or to operate this unit, a portable audio device, or a car radio while driving or waiting at a traffic signal. Park in a safe place first. • Plug securely into the cigarette lighter socket. Notes on listening to CDs or MDs on car radio • If you connect this unit to the headphone jack on a portable audio device, cancel the bass boost function and the equalizer function. For details about these settings, refer to the operating instructions of the portable audio device. • If you connect this unit to the headphone jack on the portable audio device, set the volume control of the portable audio device as high as possible but not so high that the audio signal becomes distorted. Hint If you connect the unit to the headphone jack on the portable audio device and the sound is low even if the volume is turned up, change the INPUT LEVEL…
