At first glance, it may appear that the Bose Sound Dock is made to work only with Apple's line of iPods. However, despite the presence of the iPod dock on the front of the unit, the Sound Dock can actually be used with any audio or video device with an auxiliary audio or headphone jack. By using an auxiliary audio cable, many other devices, including MP3 players, laptops and cell phones, can be used with the Bose Sound Dock.
Instructions
1. Plug one end of the 3.5-mm auxiliary audio cable into the "Aux In" input on the back of your Bose Sound Dock.
2. Plug the other end of the 3.5-mm auxiliary audio cable into the headphone, audio out or auxiliary out port on the device you want use with your Bose Sound Dock.
3. Press the "Aux" button on the remote control for your Bose Sound Dock -- it is located below the "Play/Pause" on the right-hand side of the remote. Doing this will illuminate the "Aux" indicator light on the front of your Bose Sound Dock.
4. Turn on the power or wake up your device and play music or audio files like you would with headphones or other speakers.
