able through the audio system controls on cen-
ter console.
USB/iPod connector
An iPod or MP3 player can be connected to the
audio system via the AUX or USB sockets in the
center storage compartment
An auxiliary device, such as an iPod, MP3
player or a USB flash drive can be connected
to the audio system via the sockets in the cen-
ter console storage compartment. A standard
cable from an iPod or MP3 player can be
routed under the cover to the AUX connector
in the storage compartment.
The USB socket provides current to or charges
the device connected (depending on the
device). A sound source must be chosen, depending on
the device that has been connected:
1.
Use MODE to select iPod or USB. The text
CONNECT DEVICE will be displayed.
2. Connect the device to the connector in the
center console storage compartment.
The text LOADING will be displayed while the
system loads the files (folder structure) on the
device. This may take a short time.
When information about the files (the folder
structure) on the device has been loaded, the
resulting list includes information on the artist,
genre and song title if this information is
included on the device.
To navigate in the folder structure, press
ENTER and scroll up and down the folders
using the arrow buttons (on the audio system
control panel or on the steering wheel keypad).
Press the right arrow button to select a folder.
Press the left arrow button to go up a level in
the folder structure. Press ENTER to go down
a level in the folder structure.
Tracks can be selected in two ways:
\b Turn the Tuning knob clockwise or coun-
terclockwise
\b Use the right or left arrow keys on the nav-
igation control to select the desired track. The arrow keys on the steering wheel key-
pad can also be used in the same way.
NOTE The system supports playback of files in the
most common versions of formats such as
mp3, wma, and wav. However, there may be
versions of these formats that the system
does not support.
The system also supports a number of
iPod® models produced in 2005 or later.
iPod® Shuffle is not supported.
USB flash driveTo simplify the use of a USB flash drive, it is
advisable to only store music files on the drive.
It will take considerably longer for the system
to index the files on the drive if it contains any-
thing other than compatible music files.
NOTE
The system supports removable media that
uses the USB 2.0 standard and the FAT32
file system and can index up to 500 folders
and a maximum of 64,000 files. The device
must have at least 256 Mb of memory.
MP3 playerMany mp3 players have a file indexing system
that is not supported by the vehicle\fs audio
system. In order to use an mp3 player, the sys- G031959
