A/V Inputs
Your A/V inputs allow you to connect an
auxiliary audio/video source (game
systems, personal camcorders, etc.) by
connecting RCA cords (not included) to
these input jacks. The jacks are yellow,
red and white and are located either
behind a small access door on the
instrument panel or in your center console.
You can also use the A/V inputs as an auxiliary input jack (AIJ) to play
music from your portable music player over your vehicle’s speakers. Plug

•Do not set the portable music player’s volume level higher than is
necessary to match the volume of the CD or FM radio as this causes
distortion and reduces sound quality.
•If the music sounds distorted at lower listening levels, turn the
portable music player volume down. If the problems persists, replace
or recharge the batteries in the portable music player.
•The portable music player must be controlled in the same manner
when it is used with headphones as the AIJ does not provide control
(play, pause, etc.) over the attached portable music player.

•Using privacy mode
•Dial a number
•Redial
•Call waiting notification
•Caller ID
Other features, such as text messaging using Bluetooth and automatic
phonebook download, are phone-dependent features. To check your
phone’s compatibility, see your phone’s user manual and visit
www.SYNCMyRide.com, www.SYNCMyRide.ca or www.syncmaroute.ca.
