227 Connecting external devices
Sockets for auxiliary devices in the storage com-
partment between the front seats
An auxiliary device, such as an iPodŸ or MP3
player can be connected to the audio system
via one of the sockets in the center console
storage compartment. A device connected to
the USB socket can be operated using the
vehicle's infotainment system controls.
There is a notch at the right rear of the center
console for routing wires to external devices.
This notch helps prevent the wires from being
pinched when the cover is closed.
An iPod
Ÿ or an MP3 player with rechargeable
batteries will also be charged if the device isconnected to the USB socket (if the vehicle's
ignition is on or if the engine is running).
To connect a device:
1.
Press MEDIA several times to come to the
desired source (
iPod, USB or AUX).
Release the button and wait for several
seconds or press OK/MENU.
> For example, if a USB device has been
selected, the text
Connect USB will be
displayed.
2. Connect the device to one of the sockets
in the center console storage compartment
(see the illustration).
The text
Reading USB will be displayed while
the system reads the device's folders. This may
take a short time, depending on the folder
structure and the number of files.
When this information has been loaded, track
information will be displayed and a track can
be selected.
Tracks can be selected in two ways:
•Turn TUNE and press OK/MENU
•Use the right or left arrow keys
(
/ ) on the center console control
panel or on the steering wheel keypad
NOTE
•The system supports a number of
iPodŸ models produced in 2005 or later.
•In order to help avoid damage to the
USB socket, it will be switched off if
there is a short circuit or if the con-
nected device uses too much current
(which can happen if the device does
not comply with the USB standard). The
USB socket will reactivate the next time
the ignition is switched on if the problem
no longer exists. If the problem persists,
contact a trained and authorized Volvo
service technician.
MEDIA menu selections can be made from the
center console or the steering wheel keypad.
