Notes on connecting Apple devices
Ensure that the iOS and firmware
of your device is up-to-date before
connecting it to your system.
Outdated devices may cause a
system error.
If your device’s battery is low, the
device may not be recognised.
Check the battery level and, if nec-
essary, charge the battery before
connecting the device to your sys-
tem.
Use an Apple-approved cable.
Using an unapproved cable may
cause a distorted noise or an error
during playback.
Use a cable shorter than 1 metre in
length, such as the one originally
supplied with a new Apple device.
Longer cables may lead to the
audio system not recognising the
Apple device.
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. The device stays 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 down-
load or synchronization is com-
plete.
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,
the logo will not be displayed.
Notes on playing Apple devices
Depending on the model, your
device may not be recognised due
to unsupported communication
protocols.
The order of the songs displayed
or played on the system may differ
from the order of the songs stored
in your device.
Depending on the music player
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.
If you make or receive a call during
playback via an iPhone, the music
may remain paused after you end
the call. If you do not hear the
music after ending a call, check the
device to see if the music has
paused.

Depending on the connected
Bluetooth device, mobile phone,
or the music player you are
using, playback controls may
differ.
Depending on the music player
you are using, streaming may
not be supported.
Depending on the connected
Bluetooth device or mobile
phone, some functions may not
be supported.
If you connect a Bluetooth
device or mobile phone to your
system via USB and Bluetooth
simultaneously the Bluetooth
mode is deactivated and music
plays in the USB or iPod mode.
To listen to music streamed via
Bluetooth, remove the USB
device.
If a Bluetooth enabled phone is
being used to play music and it
receives or makes a phone call,
the music will stop. Receiving an incoming call or
making an outgoing call whilst
playing Bluetooth audio may
result in audio interference.
If you use the Bluetooth phone
mode whilst using Bluetooth
audio, playback may not auto-
matically resume after you end
the call depending on the con-
nected mobile phone.
Moving the track up/down whilst
playing Bluetooth audio mode
may result in pop noises with
some mobile phones.
The Rewinding/Fast forwarding
function is not supported in the
Bluetooth audio mode.
The playlist feature is not sup-
ported in the Bluetooth audio
mode.
If the Bluetooth device is dis-
connected, Bluetooth audio
mode will end.
Using a Bluetooth phone
You can use Bluetooth to talk on the
phone hands free. View call informa-
tion on the system screen, and make
or receive calls safely and conve-
niently via the vehicle’s built-in micro-
phone and speakers.
NOTICE
Park your vehicle in a safe
location before connecting
Bluetooth devices. Driving
distracted 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
attention, making it difficult to
recognise external conditions
and reducing the ability to
cope with unexpected situa-
tions, which may lead to an
accident. If necessary, use the
Bluetooth Handsfree feature
to make calls and keep the
call as short as possible.

Driving your vehicle
R (Reverse)
Use this position to drive the vehicle
rearward.
Always come to a complete stop
before shifting into or out of R
(Reverse); you may damage the
transmission if you shift into R
(Reverse) whilst the vehicle is in
motion.
N (Neutral)
The wheels and transmission are not
engaged.
Use N (Neutral) if you need to restart
a stalled engine, or if it is necessary
to stop with the engine ON. Shift into
P (Park) if you need to leave your
vehicle for any reason.
Always depress the brake pedal
when you are shifting from N
(Neutral) to another gear.
D (Drive)
This is the normal driving position.
The transmission will automatically
shift through a 6 (or 8) -gear
sequence, providing the best fuel
economy and power.
For extra power when passing anoth-
er vehicle or driving uphill, depress
the accelerator fully. The transmis-
sion will automatically downshift to
the next lower gear (or gears, as
appropriate).
The DRIVE MODE switch, located on
the shift lever console, allows the driv-
er to switch from COMFORT mode to
SPORT or ECO mode. (if equipped)
For more details, refer to "Drive
Mode Integrated Control System"
later in this chapter.
NOTICE
Do not shift into gear unless
your foot is firmly on the brake
pedal. Shifting into gear when
the engine is running at high
speed can cause the vehicle to
move very rapidly. You could
lose control of the vehicle and
hit people or objects.
