6-36 Infotainment System
Connecting an iPod
To connect the iPod, connect one
end of the special iPod connection
cable to the iPod’s dock connector.
Connect the other end to both the
USB port and the auxiliary input jack
located in the center console. The
USB port and the auxiliary input jack
are located in the center console
bin. If the vehicle is on and the USB
connection works, a GM logo may
appear on the iPod. The iPod's
music information will be shown on
the radio’s display and the music
begins playing through the vehicles
audio system.
The iPod's battery charges while it
is connected to the vehicle and if
the ignition is turned to ACC/
ACCESSORY or ON/RUN. It can
also be left connected to the vehicle
after the vehicle is turned off. With
the vehicle turned off, the iPod will
automatically be powered off and
will not charge or draw power from
the vehicle's battery.
A standard iPod USB cable, like
the one that came with the iPod,
cannot be used to connect an iPod
to the vehicle. The special iPod
connection cable that came
equipped with the vehicle or that
was made available from your
dealer/retailer must be used to
command and control an iPod.
Use a standard 3.5 mm (1/8 in.)
stereo cable to connect an older
iPod model that is not supported,
or if the special iPod connection
cable is missing. Command and
control of the iPod using the
infotainment control buttons and
knobs is not supported when only
a 3.5 mm (1/8 in.) stereo cable
is used.
Commanding and Controlling
an iPod
An iPod™ can be controlled by
using the radio buttons and knobs;
the song information shows on the
infotainment system's display.
To connect and control the iPod
using the radio controls, use the
special iPod connection cable that
came as standard equipment with
the vehicle as part of the USB
option. The special iPod connection
cable can also be purchased or
made available, from your dealer/
retailer. See your dealer/retailer for
more information.
Use the Menu/Select knob to bring
up the iPod Menu and select Songs,
Artists, Albums, Playlists and Audio
books to play from the iPod.
Disconnecting an iPod
To properly dismount the iPod USB
device before disconnecting from
the vehicle, press the softkey under
the EJECT tab on the infotainment
display screen during iPod
playback.
