Thank you for purchasing the GROM iPod adapter, which has been designed to provide endless hours of
listening pleasure through most vehicles' factory radios. You will be able to control your iPod/iPhone with

correctly in your car or truck, we recommend that you read this entire manual before attempting install the
GROM interface.
1.3 Precautions
Proper mounting location
Securely install the interface in a location that is free from heat, humidity, moving parts, or direct sunlight.
Beware of the hot airflow from your vehicle's climate control system. We recommend securing the
interface to a suitable location that is free of sharp metal edges using double-sided tape, Velcro, or wire
ties.
The iPod/iPhone has not been designed to withstand extreme automotive temperatures. You may
damage your iPod/iPhone if you leave it inside your vehicle on a very hot or very cold day. For further
information, please refer to your iPod/iPhone manual.

Modifying the radio may void any outstanding warranty.
The purchase of this product carries with it no warranties, either expressed or implied.
