Simple interface...
The ice>Link Menu is the main part of the ice>Link user interface. Features to enhance your listening experience include different play modes such as scan, repeat and shuffle. The menu also lets you enter the playlist browser, where you can acces all of your iPod's playlists. The ice>Link Plus gives your iPod two modes of operation.1. iPod Direct Access Mode - The iPod will play/pause when you enter/exit CD changer mode on your radio. In addition, the iPod responds to FF/RW from your head unit keys and steering wheel controls (where fitted)
2. iPod Playlist Mode - Your iPod maps the first five playlists stored on the iPod to CDs 1-5 on your head unit keys. Although the iPod keypad is disabled in this mode, the iPod display (and CD Text/dashboard displays in some applications) will show ID3 data of the currently playing song. Advanced content features including Random, Repeat, Scan and AlbumPlay are also available. CD6 accesses the ice>Link Plus menu that lets you browse all of the playlists on your iPod using your head unit FF/RW keys. The menu also provides configuration options for advanced features of the interface.
(N.B. the original 1G/2G iPods that don't have the bottom-mounted dock connector do not support Ice Link Plus playlist mode or the menu)
Ice Link Plus features upgradeable firmware. As future features are released by Dension, you can simply download the necessary upgrade files to your iPod and upgrade your Ice Link Plus.
Mounting the Active Cradle:If you have selected an option that includes the Active Cradle as opposed to the Dock Cable then you will need a mounting Bracket to position the cradle on your dash providing easy access of your iPod.
We recommend mounting the Active Cradle using the supplied screws with the addition of a Dashmount Mount Bracket or Brodit Bracket ensuring a neat, safe and professional installation.
Dashmount Brackets and Brodit Brackets are Vehicle Specific Damage-Free Mounting Brackets and they are made for your particular car make and model ensuring a perfect fit. They install in minutes without any drilling and protect your dash providing a quick, easy and secure installation giving an integrated look with your car dash and interior. Detailed easy installation instructions are included with each bracket.

If your vehicle is not listed select the Universal bracket option as these are compatible with any vehicle. Universal brackets have an arm that simply slides into position at one side of your radio. Choose between 10mm, 30mm & 45mm arm lengths depending whether your radio is flush with your dash or recessed. A flush radio would use a 10mm Bracket and a radio recessed deep in the dash would use a 45mm bracket.
See an example of the Dashmount Bracket and Brodit Bracket in position.
The Becker Dension ice>Link Plus adapter is compatible with Becker head units that support the Silverstone 7860 CD Changer. The new Becker Mexico Pro might have software conflicts. If you are unsure about compatibilty please Contact Us before purchasing.
