Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
iPod Operation With Audio-Navigation Unit
When an iPod is connected to the audio-navigation unit with the USB port, you can navigate through the iPod's music files with the joystick and the button on the audio-navigation unit. You cannot use the iPod's controls.
The AUX terminal is a sound input terminal. When you connect an iPod to the audio-navigation unit using the AUX terminal, the audio-navigation unit can not control the iPod except for the volume control. To select and play songs, use the iPod's control.
Because hardware and software continually change, make sure the iPod is compatible with the vehicle by referring to the applicable owner's manual.
