Supported Media Players,
Formats and Metadata
Information
SYNC is capable of hosting nearly any
digital media player, including iPod®,
Zune ™, plays from device players, and
most USB drives. Supported audio
formats include MP3, WMA, WAV and
AAC.
It is also able to organize your indexed
media from your playing device by
metadata tags. Metadata tags are
descriptive software identifiers
embedded in the media files which
provide information about the file.
If your indexed media files contain no
information embedded in these
metadata tags, SYNC may classify
the empty metadata tags as
Unknown. In order to playback video from your
iPod® or iPhone®, (if compatible),
you MUST have a special combination
USB/RCA composite video cable
(available for purchase from Apple®).
When the cable is connected to your
iPod® or iPhone®, plug the other end
into both the RCA jacks and the USB
port.
Bluetooth Audio
Your system allows you to stream
audio over your vehicle's speakers
from your connected,
Bluetooth-enabled mobile phone.
To access, press the lower
left corner on the
touchscreen, then select the
BT Stereo tab.

To use the auxiliary input jack feature,
make sure that your portable media
player is designed to be used with
headphones and that it is fully
charged. You also need an audio
extension cable with stereo male
one-eighth inch (3.5 millimeter)
connectors at one end and a RCA jack
at the other.
1. Begin with the vehicle parked and
the radio and portable device
turned off.
2. Attach one end of the audio extension cable to the headphone
output of your player and the other
end into the adapter in one of the
two left A/V input jacks (white or
red) inside the center console.
3. Press the lower left corner on the touchscreen. Select either a tuned
station from the FM tab or the CD
tab (if there is a CD already loaded
into the system). Adjust the
volume to a comfortable listening
level.
4. Turn the portable media player on
and adjust the volume to one-half
the maximum.
5. Press the lower left corner on the touchscreen. Select the A/V In tab.
(You should hear audio from your
portable music player although it
may be low.)
6. Adjust the sound on your portable
media player until it reaches the
level of the FM station or CD by
switching back and forth between
the controls. In order to playback video from your
iPod® or iPhone®, (if compatible),
you MUST have a special combination
USB/RCA composite video cable
(available for purchase from Apple®).
When the cable is connected to your
iPod® or iPhone®, plug the other end
into both the RCA jacks and the USB
port.
Note:
Do not connect the audio input
jack to a line level output. The AIJ only
works correctly with devices that have
a headphone output with a volume
control.
Note: Do not set the portable media
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.
Note: If the audio sounds distorted at
lower listening levels, turn the portable
media player volume down. If the
problems persists, replace or recharge
the batteries in the portable media
player.
Note: The portable media player must
be controlled in the same manner when
it is used with headphones as the AIJ
does not provide control (e.g., play or
pause) over the attached portable
media player.
