  Laura MooreAug 12, 2025
  If no sound is coming from your Altec Lansing Docking Speakers, here are a few things to check: * **Volume Level:** Make sure the volume isn't set too low. Use the '+' button on top of the inMotion iM9 to increase the volume. * **iPod Connection:** If you're using an iPod, turn it off, remove it from the docking station, reseat it properly, and turn it back on. * **Alternate Audio Source:** If you're using another audio source, ensure it's correctly connected to the inMotion iM9. Connect a 3.5mm stereo cable from your device's line out or headphone jack to the 'AUX' input on the back of the inMotion iM9. Set the volume on the audio source to mid-level, and adjust the volume on the inMotion iM9 from minimum to a comfortable level.
