MEDIA HUB — PLAYING iPod®/USB/MP3 DEVICES
There are many ways to play music from iPod ® /MP3 players or USB devices through
your vehicle's sound system. Touch your “Media” soft-key to begin.
Audio Jack (AUX)
The AUX allows a portable device, such as an MP3 player or an iPod ® , to be plugged
into the radio and utilize the vehicle’s sound system, using a 3.5 mm audio cable, to
amplify the source and play through the vehicle speakers.
Touching the “AUX” soft-key will change the mode to auxiliary device if the audio
jack is connected, allowing the music from your portable device to be heard through
the vehicle's speakers. In order to activate the AUX, plug in the audio jack.
The functions of the portable device are controlled using the device buttons. The
volume may be controlled using the radio or portable device.
To route the audio cable out of the center console, use the access cut out in the front
of the console.
USB Port
Connect your iPod ® or compatible device using a USB cable into the USB Port. USB
Memory sticks with audio files can also be used. Audio from the device can be played
on the vehicles sound system while providing metadata (artist, track title, album,
etc.) information on the radio display.
When connected, the iPod ® /compatible USB device can be controlled using the
radio or Steering Wheel Audio Controls to play, skip to the next or previous track,
browse, and list the contents.
The iPod ® battery charges when plugged into the USB port (if supported by the
specific device).
To route the USB/iPod ® cable out of the center console, use the access cut out.
