TVT4040RoadTrip FM Transmitter for iPod

Thank you for purchasing Griffin Technology’s RoadTrip. We’ve redesigned RoadTrip from the ground up to make it easier than ever to dock, charge and play your iPod in your car. Let’s get started. Connect 1. Plug RoadTrip into your car’s cigarette lighter or accessory port. 2. Select the adapter for your iPod model and slide it onto RoadTrip’s. (Adapters are labeled on the underside.) 3. Slide your iPod into RoadTrip’s dock, seating it firmly. 4. Adjust RoadTrip’s flexible neck, and rotate the cradle to a convenient position. User Guide RoadTrip ® User Guide RoadTrip ® Power & Charge Since RoadTrip plugs into your car’s cigarette lighter, it will charge and power your iPod as you use it. The light ring on the plug shows charging status at a glance: red when connected, amber when charging, and green when charging is finished. Play SmartScan for Clear Frequencies 1. Press FUNCTION —> SCAN SmartScan scans all available FM frequencies and saves the 3 clearest frequencies to RoadTrip’s 3 presets. SmartScan takes about 25 seconds to complete the process, then automatically chooses the clearest frequency and displays it on RoadTrip’s high-contrast display. 2. Set your FM stereo Tune your car’s FM radio to the frequency displayed on RoadTrip’s screen. 3. Play music Press Play and enjoy the music. 1 243 Technical Specifications Antenna: Built-In Power: Provided by the 12 Volt cigarette lighter or power outlet (no batteries required) Input Voltage Range: 12 - 16 Volts DC Maximum Current: 2 Amp Output Voltage: 5 Volts DC at 1 Amp Fuse Type: 2 Amp blade-type automotive fuse Modulation: FM Stereo Available output RF range, US: 88.1 MHz -107.9 MHz Radio Frequncy Increments, US: 0.2 MHz per step Adapters included for: iPod classic 80/160GB iPod touch iPod nano 3rd generation (video) iPod nano 2nd generation iPod with video (30/60/80GB) (RoadTrip will send video to an in-car video system with this model only.)

Tuning Manually Manual tuning is a reverse of the SmartScan process; you tune your car stereo first, then adjust RoadTrip to match that frequency. 1. On your car’s FM radio, select a frequency on which you hear nothing but static. The ideal choice would have nothing on either of the neighboring frequencies, so listen for 3 in a row with static and select the middle frequency. 2. Press + or – to set RoadTrip to match that frequency. Press the + or – and hold to move through the frequencies quickly. Setting your own presets Do you have a long commute that has you hunting frequencies as radio stations fade in and out of range? Or are you a long-time RoadTrip user who already knows the perfect three frequencies? Either way, here’s how to set your own presets for quick recall. 1. Tune your RoadTrip to the desired frequency. 2. Press FUNCTION—>PRESET 3. Press and hold PRESET 1, PRESET 2 or PRESET 3 for 2 seconds. Screen blinks once and the selected PRESET button lights to indicate that it is stored successfully. (RoadTrip will automatically exit this menu after about 3 seconds.) Listen RoadTrip uses SmartSound ™ Plus to optimize both the transmission strength and the sound from your iPod to your FM radio. Depending on what you're listening to, you can also switch between stereo and mono sound. Here's how: Press FUNCTION—>MODE—> MONO (Broadcasts in mono, resulting in a stronger signal than stereo.) Use for podcasts, talk radio, audiobooks and similar tracks. Use in heavily populated areas where numerous FM stations crowd the dial. Press FUNCTION—>MODE —>STEREO (Broadcasts in stereo, for more realistic audio.) Use for music and musical podcasts. Use for best possible Right/Left Channel stereo separation. Using Other Frequencies In areas with numerous overlapping radio stations, you may need to switch frequencies to get the best possible sound, depending on your location. Here’s how: Using the presets 1. Press FUNCTION—>PRESET Select any of the three saved presets. (RoadTrip will exit this menu automatically after about 3 seconds.) 2. Tune your car’s FM radio to the new frequency displayed on RoadTrip’s screen. Troubleshooting Problems? No problem. Check these tips for a quick fix: FM Radio 1. On? 2. Tuned to unused frequency? 3. Radio volume adjusted? RoadTrip 1. RoadTrip and radio frequencies match? iPod 1. Hold switch on? 2. Play button depressed? 3. Battery completely drained? If so, your iPod must recharge for a few short minutes before so your iPod will sense a constant current and power up. Fuses 1. Car’s Cigarette Lighter fuse good? (Consult your car’s owners manual for fuse locations and specifications) 2. RoadTrip’s fuse blown? Check the replaceable fuse located near the front of the unit. An automotive blade-type mini fuse (sometimes called an ATM fuse) rated at 2 Amps can be obtained at most auto or hardware supply stores. Problem’s not solved? No problem.

Date 11/30/2007 Elliott TCB 684 West Maude Ave. Sunnyvale, CA. 94085 FCC ID: TVT4040 Dear Examiner: I am writing to avoid the possibility of an inadvertent disclosure of proprietary information. The accompanying Form 731 is being filed with the commission on our behalf by Elliott Laboratories, Inc., a consulting and testing laboratory. Included as exhibits with the enclosed application are block diagrams, schematics, and a detailed description of the theory of operation of the device. It is our intention to provide Elliott TCB and the commission with a full disclosure of our product so that its merits can be evaluated. Indeed, we are pleased to provide any further information that the commission might wish to see. It is not our intention, however, to make our proprietary process a matter of public record. In view of the fact that the block diagrams, schematics, and associated theory of operation disclose the mechanism of our process, we ask that these portions (block diagrams, schematics, and theory of operation) of our application be withheld from public inspection as provided under FCC section 0.459. These documents contain details of the proprietary operation of product. These details are not readily discernible - even to technically sophisticated individuals - from our hardware and constitute trade secrets. We request therefore that these documents and this letter be segregated from the body of our evaluation report and withheld from public inspection. Thank you for your attention. Please let the undersigned know if Elliott TCB or the Commission disagrees with our position or requires further justification. Sincerely, Jeff Altheide Quality Assurance Manager
