- *The iPhone 6+, iPad 4, iPad air, and iPad mini all require Cable Jive's Lightning Dock Extender cable (897LDOCKX2, sold separately); this due to the fact that these iPhone and iPad device are too big to seat in the speaker's integrated dock.
- Not compatible any Apple iPod, iPhone, or iPad device which features the 30-pin dock connector.
- Apple iPod/iPhone software updates may change functionality results. If you download a newer software version, you may need to reset the head unit and your iPod/iPhone to regain functionality. If this doesn't work, you may need to wait until a newer software update is available.
