Getting Started
Congratulations on your purchase of the DLO HomeDock Deluxe Dock for iPod
with On-Screen Navigation, the iPod dock that lets you enjoy your iPod’s
music, photos and videos in your living room. Connecting HomeDock Deluxe
to your home entertainment center is a snap. We’ll get you started in three
easy steps.
STEP 1 - ASSEMBLE YOUR HOMEDOCK DELUXE
Attach the HomeDock Deluxe iPod Support Stand and make the proper power,
audio and video connections to your Home Entertainment Center. See page 6.
STEP 2 - CONNECT YOUR IPOD AND ADJUST HOMEDOCK DELUXE STAND
Adjust the HomeDock Deluxe Stand to fit your particular iPod. See page 8.
STEP 3 - SELECT YOUR MUSIC, A PHOTO SLIDESHOW OR VIDEO AND PLAY
Turn on HomeDock Deluxe, select some music, pictures or a video on your
iPod and press Play. To use On-Screen Music Navigation,press the Mode but-
ton (page 15 )on the top-left of your HomeDock Deluxe remote control.
NOTE: The current Apple iPods do not allow on-screen navigation of photos or
videos - only music. However, you still can start and control the playback of
photos and videos with your HomeDock Deluxe. To select and play photo
slideshows and videos, be sure to set your HomeDock Deluxe to iPod Mode.
Your HomeDock Deluxe arrives in iPod Mode. This mode allows you to select
music, photos and videos directly from your iPod, then control all basic trans-
port functions (like Play/Pause, Fast Forward, Reverse, etc.) with the
HomeDock Deluxe remote control from the couch.

Setting Up HomeDock Deluxe
ASSEMBLING YOUR DLO HOMEDOCK DELUXE
1. Remove the adjustment screw on top of the Dock
2. Fit the iPod Support Stand into the cavity on top of the HomeDock Deluxe.
NOTE: Be sure to line up the Support Stand’s cutout slot with the adjust-
ment screw on the Dock.
3. Tighten the Support Stand’s adjustment screw to secure the Stand in
place. Do not over-tighten the screw.
CONNECTING HOMEDOCK DELUXE
There are several different ways you can connect HomeDock Deluxe to your
existing Home Entertainment Center. Generally we recommend you connect
the L and R Audio Out to your stereo directly, and Video Out directly to your TV.
But it’s perfectly fine to connect Audio and Video to your TV. HomeDock Deluxe
works great connected solely to your home stereo, although you wouldn’t be
able to use On-Screen Navigation. If you want use your Homedock Deluxe in
On-Screen Navigation Mode or to select and view videos from your iPod, you
need to hook it up to your TV.

HomeDock Deluxe Modes
HomeDock Deluxe has two distinct modes: On-Screen Navigation Mode and
iPod Mode. It’s very important to understand the differences in the two.
NOTE: Your HomeDock Deluxe arrives in iPod Mode. To toggle between iPod
Mode and On-Screen Navigation Mode, simply push the Mode button on the
top-left of your HomeDock Deluxe remote control.
ON-SCREEN NAVIGATION MODE
Use On-Screen Navigation Mode when:
• HomeDock Deluxe is connected to a TV
• you want to view and select your iPod’s music from your TV screen
• you wish to see iPod’s currently playing song and information
On-Screen Navigation Mode allows you to view, navigate and select your iPod’s
music on your TV screen. You can change display settings, view currently play-
ing song info, view songs by category, or use iPod’s song info as a screensaver.
IPOD MODE
Use iPod Mode when:
• you want to view iPod photo slideshows or iPod videos from your iPod
• you’re using HomeDock Deluxe connected to your stereo (but not your TV)
• you want to play iPod’s music without turning on your TV
iPod Mode lets you browse and select music, pictures and video directly on
your iPod. You can navigate iPod’s menu screens via the arrow buttons on the
HomeDock Deluxe’s remote control or directly on the iPod itself while docked
on top of your HomeDock Deluxe.

ADJUSTING HOMEDOCK DELUXE TO FIT YOUR IPOD
The HomeDock Deluxe can fit any dockable iPod. It can even be used with
many iPod cases left on. The first time you use your iPod, and if you ever use
another size iPod, you should adjust the HomeDock’s Support Stand to
accommodate your particular iPod. Follow these steps to do so.
1. Loosen the Support Stand Screw and
slide the Support Stand as far back
as it can go.
2. Connect your iPod by carefully low-
ering it onto the iPod dock connec-
tor of the HomeDock Deluxe.
3. Slide the Support Stand toward the
iPod until the iPod is gently resting
against the Support Stand Pad. The
back of the iPod should be parallel
with the Support Stand and not
leaning more forward or backward.
4. Tighten the Support Stand Screw
to keep in in place.
