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 infotainment
system via one of the sockets in the center
console storage compartment. A device con-
nected to the USB socket can be operated
using the vehicle's infotainment system con-
trols.
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:

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.
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,

External sound sources
USB flash drive
To simplify the use of a USB flash drive, it is
advisable to only store music files on the drive.
It will take considerably longer for the system
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.
USB hubA USB hub can be connected to the USB
socket, making it possible to connect several
USB devices at the same time. To select one
of the devices, go to the menu USB menu
