How do you activate the AUX function

I've connected an Ai-Net AUX input adaptor to the CD shuttle output so I can use my mp3 player with this stereo. It isn't picking up the input and the instruction manual I've downloaded isn't offering any solution. Please help?

This unit should recognize the connection between the deck and the changer without any problems. Are you sure the plug is compatible with alpine unit?

SOURCE: Want to know if I can use the line-level inputs from the CD Chgr

Your alpine unit is the old "M-BUS" the other adapter you are talking about is an "AI-BUS" adapter. (Hence the model numbers beginning with CD"M" or CD"A" ...)

Look for an Alpine M-Bus to RCA Input adapter.

heres one on eay for less than 10.00 including shipping.

6. Find a song on your iPod and press the Play button whenthe auxiliary input is activated. If you do not hear anything, make sure thevolume on the iPod device and radio. If the iPod is playing your song, you'llsee the song progresses on the iPod screen.
