such as its battery.
Noise may be produced from the speakers if the connected
audio equipment is used while charging it using the acces-
sory socket of the vehicle.

Otherwise, noise may be produced from the speakers.
Connect audio equipment when the external audio input
mode is deactivated or lower the vehicle’s speaker volume
before connecting it.
Noise may be produced from the speakers if audio equip-
ment is connected after the external audio input mode is

audio input mode. Therefore, be careful when switching
from the external audio input mode to the CD player mode
or radio mode since the speaker volume will be higher.
Do not use excessive force on the connection cord. Other-
wise, the cord and connectors may be damaged.
If the connection cord alone is left connected to the auxil-
iary audio connector, noise may be produced from the
speakers.

mercially available audio equipment, refer to the owner’s
manual for the commercially available audio equipment.
