Getting the Most Out of TuneBase Auto Charging Your iPhone or iPod Your TuneBase Auto will charge your iPhone or iPod while it is connected to a power outlet and receiving power. If your iPhone or iPod is not charging, make sure your TuneBase Auto is correctly connected to the power outlet and that your iPhone or iPod is securely connected to your TuneBase Auto. The indicator light on the cigarette lighter adapter should be lit. Note: Some vehicles do not provide power to the power outlet unless the vehicle is in ignition mode or the engine is running. Radio Data System (RDS) The RDS system standardizes several types of information transmitted, including time, track, artist information, and station identification. TuneBase Auto supports RDS and can display artist name followed by song title on your car stereo display. Information is displayed eight characters at a time. This will repeat on your stereo display until the transmission ends, or it is replaced by another song. Refer to your car stereos manual to find out if it has the RDS feature. Optimizing the Sound Quality of your TuneBase Auto A variety of car radio and antenna configurations are available and you may optimize the sound quality in your car based on the location of your TuneBase Manual-1 20031_PM01714-C_PM01714tt-
