Do not adjust the portable audio unit or a
similar product while driving the vehicle:
Adjusting the portable audio unit or a
similar product while driving the vehicle is
dangerous as it could distract your
attention from the vehicle operation which
could lead to a seri ous accident. Always
adjust the portable audio unit or a similar
product while the vehicle is stopped.
CAUTION
Depending on the port able audio device,
noise may occur when the device is
connected to the vehicle accessory socket.
(If noise occurs, do not use the accessory
socket.)
NOTE
•This mode may not be usable depending
on the portable audio device to be
connected.
•Before using the auxiliary jack/USB
port, refer to the instruction manual for
the portable audio device.
•Use a commercially-available,
non-impedance (3.5

for connecting the portable audio unit to
the auxiliary jack. Before using the
auxiliary jack, read the manufacturer's
instructions for connecting a portable
audio unit to the auxiliary jack.
•To prevent discharging of the battery, do
not use the auxiliary input for long
periods with the engine off or idling.

Confirmation Prompts
The confirmation prompt confirms the
command content to the user before
advancing to the operation requested by
the user. When this function is turned on,
the system reads out the voice input

confirms whether the command is correct
before advancing to the command
execution.
When the confirmation prompt function is
turned on:
(Ex. “Calling John's device. Is this
correct?”)
When the confirmation prompt function is
turned off:
(Ex. “Calling John's device.”)
NOTE
If the confirmation prompt function is
turned off when making an emergency
call, the system reads out and confirms the
command before executing it.

Things You Need to Know
WA R N I N G
Always adjust the audio while the vehicle is
stopped:
Do not adjust the audio control switches
while driving the vehicle. Adjusting the
audio while driving the vehicle is
dangerous as it could distract your
attention from the vehicle operation which
could lead to a serious accident.
Even if the audio control switches are
equipped on the steering wheel, learn to
use the switches without looking down at
them so that you can keep your maximum
attention on the road while driving the
vehicle.
CAUTION
For the purposes of safe driving, adjust the
audio volume to a level that allows you to
hear sounds outside of the vehicle
including car horns and particularly
emergency vehicle sirens.
NOTE
•To prevent the battery from being
discharged, do not leave the audio
system on for a long period of time when
the engine is not running.
•If a cellular phone or CB radio is used
in or near the vehicle, it could cause
noise to occur from the audio system,
however, this does not indicate that the
system has been damaged.
Do not spill any liquid on the audio
system.
▼ Radio Reception
AM characteristics
AM signals bend around such things as
buildings or mountains and bounce off the
ionosphere.
Therefore, they can reach longer distances
than FM signals.
Because of this,
two stations may
sometimes be picked up on the same
frequency at the same time.
