Using Honda Music Link Without Honda TTS

Connecting Your  iPod

Make sure your iPod is in music mode (not photo
mode). Then, find the Honda Music Link cable installed
inside the glove box, and plug it into the dock connector
port on the bottom of the iPod. When the Honda Music
Link cable is properly connected:

A large check mark appears on the iPod screen. 
(See below.)

You cannot operate the iPod using its controls (click
wheel, etc.). It can only be operated using your
vehicle's audio system controls.

Your vehicle charges the iPod battery when the
ignition switch is in the ON (II) or ACC (I) position. It
does not charge the iPod when the ignition switch is
in the LOCK (0) position.

Disconnecting Your  iPod

To disconnect the iPod, squeeze both sides of the
Honda Music Link cable connector, and unplug the
cable. You can connect and disconnect your iPod while
the audio system is on or off.

IMPORTANT:

For your safety, do not connect or disconnect the iPod
while driving.

Secure the iPod in the glove box. Do not place it on or
allow it to fall onto the vehicle floor, where it can get
stuck under the brake pedal or accelerator pedal.

Do not leave the iPod in the vehicle in high
temperatures or expose it to extended periods of
direct sunlight; doing so may damage it.

To avoid damaging the Honda Music Link cable, do
not pull strongly on the cable. Always keep the
connector dry, and cap the connector when it is not in
use.
