2009 CADILLAC CTS center console

To connect and control the iPod, connect one end of
the specially purchased iPod connection cable to
the iPod’s dock connector. Connect the other end to
both the USB port and the auxiliary input jack. The USB
port and the auxiliary input jack are located in the
center console bin. If the vehicle is on and the USB
connection works, a GM logo appears on the iPod.
The iPod music will display on the radio’s display and
begin playing through the vehicle radio system.
A standard iPod USB cable, like the one that came with
the iPod, cannot be used to connect an iPod to the
vehicle. You must use the iPod connection cable that
was purchased with the vehicle or that was made
available from your dealer/retailer in order for this
feature to work.
Use the radio Menu/Select knob to bring up the iPod
Menu and select Songs, Artists, Albums, Playlists
and Audio books to play from the iPod.
The iPod will charge while it is connected to the vehicle
and if the ignition is turned to ACC/ACCESSORY or
ON/RUN. It can also be left connected to the vehiclewhile the vehicle is turned off or removed. With the
vehicle turned off, the iPod will automatically be powered
off and will not charge or draw power from the vehicle’s
battery.
If you have an older iPod model that is not supported or
do not have the special iPod connection cable, you
can still listen to the iPod in the vehicle by connecting it
to the Auxiliary Input Jack using a standard 3.5 mm
(1/8 inch) stereo cable. See “Using the Auxiliary Input
Jack” earlier for more information.
Press the AM/FM, XM or HDD buttons to listen to one
of these sources while an iPod is connected. If a disc is
inserted, press the CD/AUX button to listen to a CD
or DVD-A disc. Press the CD/AUX button again to start
playing and controlling the connected iPod.
To properly dismount the iPod USB device before
disconnecting from the vehicle, press the button directly
under the EJECT label found on the iPod playback
screen.
