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, which
are descriptive software identifiers
embedded in the media files, 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.

A/V Inputs
WARNINGS
Driving while distracted can
result in loss of vehicle control,
crash and injury. We strongly
recommend that you use extreme
caution when using any device that
may take your focus off the road. Your
primary responsibility is the safe
operation of your vehicle. We
recommend against the use of any
handheld device while driving and
encourage the use of voice-operated
systems when possible. Make sure you
are aware of all applicable local laws
that may affect the use of electronic
devices while driving.
For safety reasons, do not
connect or adjust the settings on
your portable music player while your
vehicle is moving.

WARNINGS
Store the portable music player
in a secure location, such as the
center console or the glove box, when
your vehicle is moving. Hard objects
may become projectiles in a crash or
sudden stop, which may increase the
risk of serious injury. The audio
extension cable must be long enough
to allow the portable music player to
be safely stored while your vehicle is
moving.
E142622
Your A/V inputs allow you to connect
an auxiliary audio/video source (such
as a gaming systems or a personal
camcorder) by connecting RCA cords
(not included) to these input jacks.
The jacks are yellow, red and white
and are located either behind a small
access door on the instrument panel
or in your center console.
You can also use the A/V inputs as an
auxiliary input jack to play music from
your portable music player over your
vehicle's speakers. Plug in your 1/8
inch (3.5 millimeter) RCA adapter into
the two left A/V input jacks (red and
white). Press the lower left corner of the
touchscreen, and then select
A/V In.
To use the auxiliary input jack feature,
make sure that your portable music
player is designed for use with
headphones and that it is fully
charged. You also need an audio
extension cable with stereo male
1/8-inch (3.5 millimeter) connectors
at one end and a RCA jack at the
other.
1. Switch off the engine, radio and portable music player. Set the
parking brake and put the
transmission in position P.
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
FM station or a CD (if there is a CD
already loaded into the system).
4. Adjust the volume as desired.
5. Turn the portable music player on and adjust the volume to ½ the
maximum.
6. 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.)
7. Adjust the sound on your portable music 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, you must have a
special combination USB/RCA
composite video cable (which you can
buy from Apple). When you connect
the cable to your iPod or iPhone, plug
the other end into both the RCA jacks
and the USB port.
Troubleshooting
• Do not connect the audio inputjack to a line level output. The jack
only works correctly with devices
that have a headphone output
with a volume control.
• Do not set the portable music 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. • If the music sounds distorted at
lower listening levels, turn the
portable music player volume
down. If the problem persists,
replace or recharge the batteries
in the portable media player.
• Control the portable media player in the same manner when used
with headphones, as the auxiliary
input jack does not provide control
(such as Play or Pause) over the
attached portable media player.

Hands-free calling is one of the main
features of SYNC. Once you pair your
phone, you can access many options
using the touchscreen or voice
commands. While the system
supports a variety of features, many
are dependent on your cellular
phone’s functionality.
At a minimum, most cellular phones
with Bluetooth wireless technology
support the following functions:
• Answering an incoming call
• Ending a call
• Using privacy mode
• Dialing a number
• Redialing
• Call waiting notification
• Caller ID.
Other features, such as text
messaging using Bluetooth and
automatic phonebook download, are
phone-dependent features. To check
your phone’s compatibility, see your
device’s manual and visit
www.SYNCMyRide.com,
www.SYNCMyRide.ca or
