No worries - if it looks like some random proprietary connector, then that'll be it.

If there's no fly leads in there, they came supplied with a USB connector (to plug in a memory stick) and usually an old Apple 30 pin connector. The latter is what's needed to use the tunes2air option.

They look like the one in this Amazon link:

As an alternative if you have the 30 pin connector, although it's a wired option, you can buy a 30 pin to Lightning adaptor from Apple with a short length of cable and plug a modern iphone in so it charges as well. It picks it up as a source when the phone is connected and unlocked. That assumes you're an iSheep user like me. Failing that a standard USB cable will plug in and support Android via the same method.

I use the cabled method with my S5 as it means the phone is tucked away and charging as well as available to play music. It will still connect via Bluetooth for calls

ETA - can't find any results for tunes2air on Amazon now (worth checking ebay for used ones) but this looks like the same device:
