Connecting The iPod
ா
Use the optional connection cable to connect an iPod
௡ to
the vehicle’s 16–pin connector port (which is located in
the glove compartment on some vehicles). Once the
iPod
௡ is connected and synchronized to the vehicle’s UCI
system (iPod ௡ may take a few seconds to connect), the
iPod
௡ starts charging and is ready for use by pressing
radio switches, as described below.
NOTE:
• You may have to remove the connector pin protection
cap from the 16–pin connector port, prior to connect-
ing the cable.
• If the iPod௡ battery is completely discharged, it may
not communicate with the UCI system until a mini-
mum charge is attained. Leaving the iPod
௡ connected
to the UCI system may charge it to the required level.
Using This Feature
By using the optional connection cable to connect an
iPod
௡ to the vehicle’s UCI 16–pin connector port:
• The iPod௡ audio can be played on the vehicle’s sound
system, providing metadata (Artist, track title, album,
etc.) information on the radio display.
• The iPod௡ can be controlled using the radio buttons to
Play, Browse, and List the iPod ௡ contents.
• The iPod௡ battery charges when plugged into the UCI
connector.
