IPOD/USB/MP3 CONTROL — IF EQUIPPED
Located on the center stack, just below the instrument panel,
is the main media hub. There are four total USB Ports : Two
Mini-USBs (Type C) and two Standard USBs (Type A). There
is also an AUX Port located in the middle of the USB Ports.
All four of the USB Ports include a USB Trident and a numer-
ical value one through three, which indicates that the vehicle
can support three fully-functioning USB Ports at a time. Each
USB Port will support media and charging simultaneously.
NOTE:
• The Type C USB port is the primary media port for the radio. Two devices can be plugged in at the same time and
both ports provide charging capabilities, but only one port
can transfer data to the head unit at a time.
• Both ports share a single data connection. However, the user cannot switch between Type A or Type C. For example, if a device is plugged into the Type A USB port
and another device is plugged into the Type C port, connec
-
tion to the Type A port will be lost. Alternatively, if a device
is plugged into the Type C port and another device is
plugged into the Type A port, the Type C device maintains
primary connection.

RADIO OPERATION AND MOBILE PHONES
Under certain conditions, the mobile phone being on in your
vehicle can cause erratic or noisy performance from your
radio. This condition may be lessened or eliminated by relo -
cating the mobile phone antenna. This condition is not
harmful to the radio. If your radio performance does not
satisfactorily “clear” by the repositioning of the antenna, it is
recommended that the radio volume be turned down or off
during mobile phone operation when not using Uconnect (if
equipped).

human body.
The internal wireless radio operates within guidelines found
in radio frequency safety standards and recommendations,
which reflect the consensus of the scientific community.
The radio manufacturer believes the internal wireless radio
is safe for use by consumers. The level of energy emitted is
far less than the electromagnetic energy emitted by wireless
devices such as mobile phones. However, the use of wireless
radios may be restricted in some situations or environments,
such as aboard airplanes. If you are unsure of restrictions,
you are encouraged to ask for authorization before turning
