to index the files on the drive if it contains any-
thing other than compatible music files.
NOTE
•The system supports removable media
that uses the USB 2.0 standard and the
FAT32 file system. It can index up to
1,000 folders and a maximum of 254
sub-folders/files for each folder. How-
ever, the highest folder level can sup-
port up to 1,000 sub-folders/files.
•When using a longer type of USB
device, connecting it with a USB
adapter cable will help reduce mechan-
ical wear on the USB socket and on the
device.
MP3 playerMany MP3 players have a file indexing system
that is not supported by the vehicle's audio
system. In order to use an MP3 player, the sys-
tem must be set to USB Removable device/
Mass Storage Device.
iPodŸ
An iPodŸ receives current and its battery is
charged through the connecting cord. How-
ever, if the iPod's battery is completely
drained, it should be recharged before the
iPodŸ is connected to the audio system.
NOTE
When an iPodŸ is used as a sound source,
the vehicle's audio system has a menu
structure similar to the one in the iPod
Ÿ. See
the iPod's manual for detailed information.
For further information, refer to the accessory
manual USB/iPodŸ Music Interface.
Adjusting volume for an external deviceThe volume of an external device may be dif-
ferent from the volume of the internal sound
sources such as the CD player or the radio. It
the external device's volume is too high, the
quality of the sound may be impaired. To help
prevent this, adjust the external device's input
volume as follows:
1. While playing the radio or a CD, lower the
audio volume to about one-quarter.
2.
Switch to
AUX mode on the audio system
by pressing the MODE button.
3. Connect the headphone output from your
music player to the AUX input using a cable
with a stereo 3.5 mm miniplug at both
ends.
4. Set your music player's headphone vol-
ume to three-quarters using the player's
volume controls.5.
Press MENU on the audio system, and
navigate to
AUX input volume.
6. Turn the volume knob to raise or lower the
AUX input volume until you hear music at
a comfortable level.
7. If there is distortion, lower your music play-
er's headphone volume until the distortion
goes away.
8. Finally, exit the menu and adjust the audio
volume to a comfortable level.
BluetoothŸ streaming audio (BT)The vehicle's audio system is equipped with
BluetoothŸ, which makes it possible to play
streaming audio files from a BluetoothŸcon-
nected cell phone. Navigation and control of
the phone can be done through the vehicle's
center console control panel or the steering
wheel keypad. On certain cell phones, it is also
possible to change tracks from the phone
itself.
In order to listen streaming audio, BT must be
selected as a sound source (see page 245) and
a Bluetooth
Ÿ cell phone must be connected
(paired) with the audio system. See page 263
for more information.

channels will be displayed as 93.9 – 2
WNYC, 93.9 - 3 WNYC, etc.
•Reception coverage area: Due to current
IBOC transmitter power limitations, the
reception coverage area in digital mode is
somewhat more limited than the station's
analogue coverage area. Please be aware
that as with any radio broadcast technol-
ogy, terrain, time of day, foliage level and
building location can have positive or neg-
ative effects on radio reception.
•Analogue to digital/digital to analogue
blending: Analogue to digital blending will
occur as the signal strength reaches a pre-
set threshold in the receiver. This will be
noticeable in fringe areas (areas with weak
reception) and is normal.
NOTE
There may be a noticeable difference in
sound quality when a change from analogue
to digital or digital to analogue occurs, such
as:
•Volume increase or decrease
•Equalizer settings, i.e., Bass/ Midrange/
Treble cut or boost
•Time alignment (Digital program mate-
rial in extreme cases can be as much as
8 seconds behind the analogue). This
will noticeable as a "stuttering" effect.
The above items are dependant on the
broadcaster's equipment settings and do
not indicate a fault in the vehicle's radio
receiver or antenna systems.
Switching HD on or offThe factory setting for HD radio is on. However,
when driving through areas with weak HD sig-
nals (fringe areas), you may experience that the
radio repeatedly switches between analogue/
digital and digital/analogue reception. If this
happens, it may be desirable to switch HD off.
To do so:
1. Be sure the audio system is switched on
and is in AM or FM mode.
2.
Press MENU in the center console control
panel.3.
Press ENTER to turn HD off (the X will dis-
appear from the box on the display screen).
This will disable the radio's capability to receive
digital broadcasts but it will continue to func-
tion as a conventional (analogue) AM/FM
receiver. Please note that when HD is switched
off, it will not be possible to tune to sub-chan-
nels (see the following section for a more
detailed explanation of sub-channels).
Repeat steps 2 and 3 above to reactivate HD
(an X will appear in the box on the display
screen).

In many cases, a main HD Radio station (FM
wavebands only) will also have sub-channels
offering additional types of programming or
music.
In such cases, a number will be displayed to
the right of the frequency number indicating
that the currently tuned frequency has at least
one sub-channel. The "2" in the illustration indi-
cates that you are currently listening to the first
sub-channel on frequency 93.9.
Selecting sub-channelsTo listen to a station's sub-channel(s), press
the right arrow key on the center console or on
the steering wheel keypad. To go back to the
main channel, press the left arrow key. To go
to subchannel 2 (if available), press the right
arrow key.
If you are currently tuned to a frequency's main
channel, pressing the left arrow key will tune to
the next lower radio frequency.
NOTE
•When the radio has gone into HD mode,
it may take several seconds before the
">" symbol (if the current frequency has
any sub-channels) is displayed to the
right of the frequency. Pressing the
arrow keys before the number is dis-
played will cause the radio to tune to the
next available radio station, not to the
current station's sub-channels.
•When you are no longer in broadcasting
range of the currently tuned sub-chan-
nel,
No HD reception will be dis-
played. The radio will then be muted
and it will be necessary to tune to or
search for a new radio station.
Sub-channels can also be stored as presets,
see page 251 for information on storing sta-
tions.
If you press a sub-channel's preset button, it
may take up to 6 seconds before the channel
becomes audible. If you press this button while
you are out of digital range of the transmitter,
No HD reception will be displayed.
Listening to satellite radio
The SiriusXM
E satellite system consists of a
number of high elevation satellites in geosyn-
chronous orbit.
NOTE
•The digital signals from the SiriusXM
E
satellites are line-of-sight, which means
that physical obstructions such as
bridges, tunnels, etc, may temporarily
interfere with signal reception.
•Avoid any obstructions, such as metal-
lic objects transported on roof racks or
in a ski box, or other antennas that may
impede signals from the SiriusXM
E
satellites.
Selecting SiriusXM
E radio mode1. Press Power to switch on the audio system
(see page 251 for information on the stand-
ard radio functions).
2.
Press the MODE button repeatedly until
SiriusXM
E 1 or 2 is displayed.
