DLO TRANSCAST FM USER MANUAL
Once you have set the optimal volume level of your device, you should control
the overall listening volume with your car radio’s volume, not the volume on
your device.
Charging Your TransCast FM in the Car
The TransCast FM includes a Car Charger that both powers the TransCast FM
and recharges the TransCast FM’s battery. The Car Charger works with any 12V
cigarette lighter in your car, van or truck. Simply plug the Car Charger into the
5V DC Adapter Jack on your TransCast FM to keep your TransCast FM powered
and playing for those long trips.

I can’t find an empty FM frequency in my area.
Be sure to look in the 100’s, not just to the left of the dial in the 80’s or 90’s. Try

and repeat. For more tips and helpful information, please read

gest you use the supplied rechargeable battery or an equivalent rechargeable
battery of good quality. A poor quality battery will affect the sound quality and
possibly damage the TransCast FM.
My radio will only scan to occupied FM stations.
Many car radios default to scan/seek mode for tuning, so they automatically
tune to a radio station. Most of these radios can be switched to manual tuning
(consult your car’s or radio’s manual on how to do this). You can also “find”
your TransCast FM by tuning to its selected frequency. Your scan/seek function
will most likely find your TransCast FM.
My music sounds overdriven and distorted.
Be sure that the FM station you’re using is still unoccupied as you drive through
different areas. FM signals can intrude on an unused frequency. Also, when the
