• To route the USB/iPod® cable out of the center console, use the access cut out in the front of the console.
NOTE:
• When connecting your iPod® device for the first time, the system may take several minutesto read your music, depending on the number of files. For example, the system will take

After the first time, the reading process of your iPod® will take considerably less time unless
changes are made or new songs are added to the playlist.
• The USB port supports certain Mini, Classic, Nano, Touch, and iPhone® devices. The USB port also supports playing music from compatible external USB Mass Storage Class
memory devices. Some iPod® software versions may not fully support the USB port features.
Please visit Apple’s website for iPod® software updates.
