iPod/iPhone Compatibility

Due to the large variety of iPod and iPhone models and gen-
erations on the market, full compatibility cannot be guaran-
teed. Before connecting your iPod/iPhone, ensure that it has 
a compatible interface.
Full compatibility of the remote functions also cannot be 
guaranteed. Operate your iPod/iPhone as normal, while it sits 
in the docking station.

 NOTE: 

Depending on the software version of your iPhone the fol-
lowing error message may be displayed:

“This accessory was not developed for iPhone use. It is 

possible that noise occurs and signal strength is reduced.”

In this case press “OK”.
