How to use a dock adapter with an Apple iPod player or iPhone mobile device

IMPORTANT: This article applies only to specific products and/or operating systems. Check Applicable Products and Categories for details.

We currently have two models that are designed to operate Apple iPod® or iPhone® devices without the use of a dock adapter. The ICF-CS15iP Personal Audio Docking System and the RDP-X500iP Docking Speaker System don't require, nor are they designed to accept installation of a dock adapter.

1. Remove the cover or case from the iPod or iPhone.
2. Attach the Dock adapter that matches your iPod or iPhone.

   WARNING: There is a risk of hardware damage. If you attach a dock adapter that does not match your iPod player or iPhone device, or if you connect your iPod player or iPhone device without the dock adapter, you may damage the connector on the dock adapter and on your unit. This may result in your unit not being recognized or you will not be able to obtain any sound.

3. Place the iPod or iPhone down at the same angle as the dock connector on the unit without any twisting.

   WARNING: There is a risk of hardware damage. Do not pull or push the iPod player or the iPhone device forward or backwards on the dock adapter as this may cause damage to the dock adapter and possibly your unit.

If your unit did not come supplied with the iPod player or iPhone device dock adapter and you either have questions about a dock adapter that you purchased separately or would like to find out about purchasing one for use with your product, visit the Apple Universal Dock website for detailed information or contact Apple for further assistance.
