Setting Up Your HomeDock for Zune

Assembling your DLO HomeDock

1. Remove the adjustment screw on top of the HomeDock.

2. Fit the Support Stand into the cavity on top of the HomeDock.

NOTE: Be sure to line up the

Support Stand's cutout slot with the adjustment screw on the

Dock.

3. Tighten the Support Stand's adjustment screw to secure the Stand in place. Do not overtighten the screw.

Connecting HomeDock for Zune

There are several ways you can connect HomeDock to your existing Home

Entertainment Center. Generally, we recommend you connect the Left and Right

Audio Out to your stereo directly, and Video Out directly to your TV. HomeDock works great connected solely to your home stereo, although you wouldn't be able to use On-

TV Navigation. If you want to use your HomeDock to select and view music, videos, pictures, radio or community from your Zune, you need to hook it up to your TV.

Adjusting HomeDock to Fit Your Zune

The HomeDock can be used with many Zune cases left on. The first time you use your

Zune, you should adjust the HomeDock's Support Stand.

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 Zune by carefully lowering it onto the Zune dock connector of the

HomeDock. Be careful not to damage the Zune connector on the HomeDock or on the Zune.

3. Slide the Support Stand toward the Zune until the Zune is gently resting against the Support Stand Pad. The back of the Zune should be parallel with the Support Stand and not leaning more forward or backward.

4. Tighten the Support Stand Screw to keep it in place.

NOTE: Your HomeDock will also charge your Zune while connected to your computer.

Tips + Troubleshooting

I've selected a video or pictures to play on my TV but instead it's only playing on my Zune's screen.

For On-TV Navigation of your Zune you'll have to set the tv out setting on the Zune itself.

To do this, simply go to settings on the Zune's Main Menu (you may do this using the

Zune's Control Pad or with the HomeDock's Remote Control). Under settings select display and then select tv out: off. When you see a pop-up window, just hit the

Enter/OK Button on your HomeDock's Remote or on the Zune Control Pad. Your Zune's interface should now appear on your television screen.

I am unable to get reception using my Zune's radio mode, what's wrong?

The Zune actually uses your headphones or ear buds as an antenna. So, in order to get proper reception in radio mode using the HomeDock for Zune, you'll need to plug in a pair of headphones or ear buds.

My HomeDock for Zune sounds a little distorted.

The balance of volume between your HomeDock and Stereo/TV can affect the audio quality significantly. Adjust the HomeDock's volume or your Home Stereo/TV volume up or down to achieve the best sound quality.

Does the HomeDock charge my Zune's battery?

Yes. The HomeDock charges and powers your Zune whenever your Zune is connected.

Do I have to use a TV with the HomeDock?

No. The only time you need a TV is for On-TV viewing and navigation of your music, videos, pictures, radio or community. For all other uses, the HomeDock is a musicbased, remote-controlled home docking system for your Zune that requires nothing but a stereo or powered speakers to play your Zune's music. Of course, to get the most out of your HomeDock, you should connect it to a TV and Home Stereo. Remember, in order to use On-TV Navigation to select and choose your music, videos, pictures, radio or community, you have to connect your HomeDock to your TV.
