INTRODUCTION Thank you for purchasing Harman Kardons Drive + Play™, an elegant mobile audio solution that provides the driver with total iPod ®control, including full music browsing capability. Weve organized this manual to make installation and operation as simple and trouble-free as possible. Please read it thoroughly before you begin installing Drive + Play. Remember to keep your sales receipt with this manual in a safe place, so both are avail- able for future reference. If you have any questions about the installation, please contact us at: 1 – (516) – 255 – HKHK (4545) Or on the Web at: www.harmankardon.com iPod ®Requirements Drive + Play is designed to work with all iPods equipped with the following Apple ®hardware and software: 1. iPod dock port 2. iPod software As long as both of these requirements are met, Drive + Play can be easily added to virtually any mobile audio system for total control of your iPod. Drive + Play Warnings Distraction Warning Do not connect or disconnect your iPod or program Drive + Play while driving. Always be careful and attentive to your vehicle and the traffic around you. Always obey all traffic laws while driving. Always pull off the road and park in a position you are sure presents absolutely no risk before browsing your iPod or adjusting the settings on your Drive + Play. Connecting the iPod Always hold the Drive + Plays iPod dock connector by its sides and gently insert (or remove) the dock connector. Never use excessive force to insert or remove the connector, or damage to your iPod may occur. Lost Data Harman/Kardon is not responsible for any lost data on your iPod when using the Drive + Play. Be sure to back up the audio data files on your computer. Loud Music and Hearing Playing loud music in a vehicle can permanently damage your hearing, as well as hinder your ability to hear traffic. The max- imum volume levels achievable with this product, combined with high power amplification, may exceed safe levels for extended listening. We recommend using low volume levels when driving. Harman/Kardon accepts no liability for hearing loss, bodily injury, or property damage as a result of use or misuse of this product. Headphones and Driving Do not use headphones while operating a vehicle. This practice is illegal in some areas. Always be careful and attentive to your vehicle and the traffic around you. Always obey all traffic laws while driving. Drive + Plays audio output is not suitable for driving headphones and is intended to output a signal appro- priate for an audio systems line-level input jack. About Installation Although we recommend professional installation for your Harman/Kardon Drive + Play, this product is designed for do-it-yourself installation as well, especially when using the wireless FM transmission method (see page 4). Although the enclosed instructions explain how to install the Drive + Play in a general sense, they do not show the exact methods for your particular vehicle. After reading the manual, if you feel uncomfortable in performing the necessary steps to install the product, consider asking your car-audio dealer about professional installation options. iPod Dock Port 2 INTRODUCTION Model Description and Minimum Software Version/Date 3G Mini 4G Photo 5G Nano Buttons above All Click Color Color Color touch wheel Wheel Screen Screen Screen v2.2 v1.1 v3.0 v1.0 v1.0 v1.0 2/04 3/04 7/04 10/04 6/05 9/05 Drive+Play OM revB.qxd 9/14/05 7:20 PM Page 2

Choosing Installation Locations IMPORTANT: Drive + Play should be installed according to these instructions and relevant regulations. No part of this system should obstruct the drivers view of the road or vehicle controls or information displays necessary for safely operating the vehicle. The text display should be positioned to eliminate glare and reflections, and should be as close as possible to the drivers normal line of sight. Drive + Play Components Drive + Play consists of three main components: Text Display, Control Knob and Electronics Enclosure. They operate together as a system to make controlling your iPod easy, and to route the audio signal to your mobile audio system. All three components must 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 Location The Text Display shows current iPod information and is similar to the display on your iPod. It comes with a three-position pivot arm for virtually limitless viewing adjustment. You can install 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 on top of the dashboard. Control Knob Location The Control Knob allows you to control the iPod much like the iPod Click Wheel. The unit comes with three interchangeable bases 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 feel and operate it without taking your eyes off the road. continued on next page...
