This feature allows an iPod
௡ to be plugged into the

the provided interface cable.

Uconnect Multimedia radio user’s manual for iPod or
external USB device support capability.

Connecting The iPod
ா
Use the provided 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
iPod
௡ control 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:
• It may be necessary to remove the connector pin
protection cap from the 16–pin connector port, prior to
connecting the cable.
• If the iPod௡ battery is completely discharged, it may
not communicate with the iPod
௡ control system until
a minimum charge is attained. Leaving the iPod ௡
connected to the iPod ௡ control system may charge it to
the required level.
