SOUND-SYSTEM
AUX(for versions/markets, where provided)INTRODUCTIONThis section describes the variants regarding the operation of the
AUX source: as far as the operation of the radio is concerned, refer
to the description in the "Functions and Adjustments" section.AUX MODETo activate the AUX source, press the MEDIA button or the SRC
control on the steering wheel repeatedly until the corresponding
source is displayed.
The AUX socket is located on the central tunnel next to the power
socket (or next to the cigar lighter socket, depending on the
versions) fig. 3.IMPORTANT
The functions of the device connected with the AUX socket are
directly managed by the device itself; it is not possible to change
track/folder/playlist with radio or steering wheel controls.
Do not leave the cable of your portable player connected to the
AUX socket after disconnecting, to avoid possible hiss from the
speakers.
