audio device cable can be routed through
without damaging the cable when closing
the lid. A factory cut out space for the cable to be routed may be located in the base of
the center console on either the front or
side. This allows routing of the cable without
damaging it while closing the lid. If a cut out
is not available in the center console base,
route the cable away from the lid latch and in
a place that will allow the lid to close without
damaging the cable.

chronized to the vehicle’s iPod®/USB/MP3 con-
trol system (iPod® or external USB device may
take a few minutes to connect), the audio
device starts charging and is ready for use by
pressing radio switches, as described below.
NOTE:
If the audio device battery is completely
discharged, it may not communicate with
the iPod®/USB/MP3 control system until a
