• Fully insert a USB connector into
the USB port. Failure to do so may
cause a communication error.• When your device is connected to
the USB port and the AUX port
simultaneously, it is recognised in

the AUX mode even if the AUX
cable is not connected to the sys-
tem. To play music in iPod mode,
disconnect the AUX cable from the
device or change audio output of
the device to “Dock.”
• If you connect your device to the
system whilst playback is in
progress on the device, you may
hear a high pitch sound just after
the connection. Connect the device
after stopping or pausing playback.
• Connecting your device during a
download or synchronizing with
iTunes may cause an error. Connect
the device after the download or
synchronization is complete.
• If you connect an iPod nano
(except for the 6th generation) or
an iPod classic, the brand logo will
be displayed on the device screen.
For an iPhone and an iPod touch,

application you are using, informa-
tion displayed on the system may
differ.
• In an iPhone, the audio streaming
function and iPod mode control
may conflict. If an error occurs, dis-
connect and reconnect the USB
cable.
• When using an iPhone or an iPod
touch, do not control the device
whilst it is connected to your sys-
tem. An error may occur.

NOTICE
•Park your vehicle in a safe
location before connecting
Bluetooth devices. Distracted
driving can cause a traffic
accident and lead to personal
injury or death.
•Never dial a phone number or
pick up your mobile phone
whilst driving. Use of a mobile
phone may distract your
