key may not operate if close to certain
electronic devices: telephone, laptop
computer, strong magnetic fields, etc.

For vehicles with an ignition switch, do
not forget to remove the key and turn the
steering to engage the steering lock.

When connected to the USB port,
the portable device can be charged
automatically.
While charging, a message is displayed
if the power consumption of the portable
device exceeds the amperage supplied by

The USB also allows a telephone to be
connected by a MirrorLink™ connection, so
that use can be made in the touch screen tablet
of certain applications on the telephone.
Jack auxiliary socket
The Jack auxiliary socket allows the connection
of a portable device, such as a digital audio
player, so that your audio files can be played
through the vehicle's speakers.
