MEDIA HUB – PLAYING iPod®/USB/MP3 DEVICES
•There are many ways to play music from iPod®/MP3 players or USB devices through
your vehicle's sound system.
Audio Jack (AUX)
•The AUX allows a portable device, such as an MP3 player or an iPod®, to be plugged
into the radio and utilize the vehicle’s sound system, using a 3.5 mm audio cable, to
amplify the source and play through the vehicle speakers.
•Press the MEDIA button, touch “Select Source” and then choose “AUX” source will
change the mode to auxiliary device if the audio jack is connected, allowing the music
from your portable device to be heard through the vehicle's speakers.In order to
activate the AUX, plug in the audio jack.
•The functions of the portable device are controlled using the device buttons.The vol-
ume may be controlled using the radio or portable device.
•To route the audio cable out of the center console, use the access cut out in the front
of the console.
USB Port
•Connect your iPod® or compatible device using a USB cable into the USB Port.USB
Memory sticks with audio files can also be used.Then, audio from the device can be
played on the vehicles sound system while providing metadata (artist, track title, album,
etc.) information on the radio display.
•When connected, the iPod®/compatible USB device can be controlled using the radio
or Steering Wheel Audio Controls to play, skip to the next or previous track, browse,
and list the contents.
•The iPod® battery charges when plugged into the USB port (if supported by the
specific device).
•To route the USB/iPod® cable out of the center console, use the access cut out.
NOTE:
•When connecting your iPod® device for the first time, the system may take several
minutes to read your music, depending on the number of files.For example, the sys-
tem will take approximately five minutes for every 1000 songs loaded on the device.
Also during the reading process, the Shuffle and Browse functions will be disabled.This
process is needed to ensure the full use of your iPod® features and only happens the
first time it is connected.After the first time, the reading process of your iPod® will
take considerably less time unless changes are made or new songs are added to the
play list.
•The USB port supports certain Mini, Classic, Nano, Touch, and iPhone® devices.The
USB port also supports playing music from compatible external USB Mass Storage
Class memory devices.Some iPod® software versions may not fully support the
USB port features.Please visit Apple’s website for iPod® software updates.
