if the pairing procedure is completed
successfully, a screen is displayed.
Answer “Yes” to the question to pair the
Bluetooth®
audio device as favourite
(the device will have priority over all

USB SOURCE
To activate USB mode, plug a
compatible device into the USB port on
the central tunnelfig. 191 or, where
provided, into the USB port on the back
of the central console fig. 192.
IMPORTANT After using a USB
recharging socket, we recommend
disconnecting the device (smartphone),
always removing the cable from the
vehicle socket first, never from the
device (example infig. 191 ). Cables left
flying or connected incorrectly could
compromise correct recharging and/or
the USB socket condition.
TheUconnect™system may not
support some USB keys: in this case, it
may not automatically switch from
“Radio” mode to “Media” mode.
If the device used does not play, verify
its compatibility by selecting Media
mode: a dedicated message will appear
on theUconnect™system display.
NOTE The USB ports handle data
transmission from the Pen
Drive/Smartphone, etc. and slow
recharging of an external device, which
is not guaranteed as it depends on the
device type/brand.
USB charging port
(where provided)
Some versions have a USB charging
port on the central tunnel fig. 193.
When a USB device is inserted with the
radio on, it starts to play the tracks on
the device if the “AutoPlay” is set to
"ON" in the “Audio” menu.
AUX SOURCE(where provided)
To activate AUX mode, insert an
appropriate device in the AUX socket in
the car.
When a device is inserted using the
AUX output socket the system starts

Adjust the volume using the
button/knob on the front panel
or using the volume adjustment control
on the connected device.
The "AUX Volume Offset" function can
be selected in “Audio” settings only
when the AUX source is active.
IMPORTANT NOTES
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
