When I place my iPod into the Music Remote Dock, the iPod does not enter the
Music Remote Mode.
Be sure that your iPod contains recent firmware. Visit apple.com/ipod/download to
get the latest iPod software updates.
When I place my iPod into the Music Remote Dock, the iPod Click Wheel is no
longer functional.
Don’t worry, the Music Remote is working correctly and provides the same func-
tionality as the iPod Click Wheel.
My music sounds distorted and “fuzzy”.
The Music Remote lets you control the volume of your iPod’s music. However, it is
important that you find the correct balance between your Music Remote’s volume
setting and the speaker system, stereo, TV, computer or other audio device’s vol-
ume setting. Be sure to try different volume settings on your audio device until you
find the optimum balance.
I removed my iPod from the Dock and it still displays “OK to Disconnect”.
Return your iPod to the Dock and remove it after a few minutes. If this does not
work, you can also reset your iPod by holding down the Menu + Center buttons.
18 | DLO HOMEDOCK MUSIC REMOTE USER MANUAL
My Music Remote keeps displaying “Out of Range” and I cannot see my
iPod’s music.
First, ensure that your iPod is securely connected to the Music Remote Dock. This
is verified by the iPod screen displaying the Music Remote screen message OK to
disconnect. The Music Remote is a powerful RF remote that will function through
walls and other obstructions, but you may be out of range of the base unit or expe-
riencing some kind of outside interference. Move closer to the Music Remote Dock
to verify communication. (Once communication is well established, you can verify
distance and RF communication under About in the Settings menu). If these steps
do not work, or your Music Remote seems to be non-responsive, you should reset
the unit by pressing and holding the Menu button and Up av/Volume Up buttons
simultaneously for a few seconds until you see the DLO logo appear. Finally, the
Music Remote can be reset by pressing a needle or paper clip end into the reset
access hole on the bottom left side of the remote.
Do I need to download both lists (Artists and Playlists) separately?
No. Once you select Download Lists, both lists will automatically be downloaded
to your Music Remote.
