Wire The Harman Kardon Drive + Play Ipod Car System

The Harman Kardon Drive + Play iPod car system allows you to listen to your iPod through your existing car stereo. The Drive + Play system broadcasts music from the iPod over a FM frequency, so once you tune your radio to that frequency, you can hear the music playing through your car stereo. The Drive + Play system also includes a control knob that lets you control your iPod, and a text display that lets you see what songs are being played.


Instructions


1. Insert the iPod cable to the left-most jack labeled "iPod", on the back of the electronics enclosure of the Drive + Play iPod car system. Plug the other end of the cable into your iPod.


2. Insert the 12-Volt cigarette lighter power cable into the "Power" jack next to the iPod cable. Plug the other end of the cable into the 12V jack or cigarette lighter of your car.


3. Connect the cable from the text display unit into the "Display" jack, which is the second jack from the right on the back of the electronics enclosure. Place the text display unit in an area where you can easily see it, but that will not obstruct your view.


4. Connect the cable from the control knob into the "Controller" port, which is the right-most jack on the back of the electronics enclosure. Place the control knob in an area that will be easily accessible.


5. Place the electronics enclosure under your seat or in your glove compartment, so that the various cables will not interfere with your driving.
