Troubleshooting
Issue - The audio is distorted.
Solution 1 - Decrease the TuneBase FM volume setting. Setting the volume setting to "VOL 4"
or "VOL 5" increases the likelihood of audio distortion, except when using iPod nano.
Solution 2 - Make sure that your iPod EQ setting is "Off" or "Flat". Some EQ settings cause the
audio to clip.
Solution 3 - Tune your car stereo and the TuneBase FM to a different frequency.
Issue - The audio is too quiet.
Solution 1 - Increase the transmission volume setting, especially when using an iPod nano. If
your hear distortion in the audio, decrease the volume setting. The default setting of "VOL 3" is
ideal for most conditions.
Issue - I am unable to get clear FM reception.
Solution 1 - Tune your car stereo and the TuneBase FM to a different frequency.
Solution 2 - In some instances, lowering the car antenna (available in some cars) will improve
the clarity of the TuneBase FM's signal.
Solution 3 - Change the stereo/mono setting to mono mode. This may improve signal
reception, but the audio will be monaural instead of stereo.
Issue - iPod playback stays paused after I've changed a setting on the TuneBase FM.
Solution - Simply press the "Play/Pause" button on your iPod to resume playback.
Issue - When I remove my iPod from the TuneBase FM cradle or turn off my car, iPod
playback does not automatically pause.
Solution - If you remove the iPod from the TuneBase FM cradle within 12 seconds of adjusting
the TuneBase FM settings, or remove power to the TuneBase FM during this time, the iPod may
not automatically pause. Simply press the "Play/Pause" button on your iPod to pause playback.
Issue - When returning to the iPod Main Menu after adjusting the TuneBase FM
settings, the iPod stays on the "OK to disconnect" screen.
Solution - Remove your iPod from the TuneBase FM and reconnect it. If you are no longer using
the TuneBase FM, simply remove and then reset your iPod by pressing the "select" and "menu"
buttons simultaneously for 10 seconds.
