Using the Auxiliary Input Jack
The radio system has an auxiliary input jack located on
the lower right side of the faceplate. This is not an
audio output; do not plug the headphone set into the
front auxiliary input jack. An external audio device such
as an iPod, laptop computer, MP3 player, CD player,
etc. can be connected to the auxiliary input jack for use
as another source for audio listening.
Drivers are encouraged to set up any auxiliary device
while the vehicle is in P (Park). See Defensive Driving on
page 4-2 for more information on driver distraction.
To use a portable audio player, connect a 3.5 mm
(1/8 inch) cable to the radio’s front auxiliary input jack.
When a device is connected, press the radio CD/AUX
button to begin playing audio from the device over
the vehicle speakers.
For optimal sound quality, increase the portable audio
device’s volume to the loudest level.
It is always best to power the portable audio device
through its own battery while playing.
O (Power/Volume): Turn clockwise or counterclockwise
to increase or decrease the volume of the portable player.
Additional volume adjustments might have to be made
from the portable device if the volume is not loud or soft
enough.
BAND: Press to listen to the radio when a portable
audio device is playing. The portable audio device
continues playing.
CD/AUX (CD/Auxiliary): Press to play a CD when a
portable audio device is playing. Press again and
the system begins playing audio from the connected
portable audio player. If a portable audio player is
not connected, “No Input Device Found” displays.
DVD/CD AUX (CD/Auxiliary): Press to cycle through
DVD, CD, or Auxiliary when listening to the radio.
The DVD/CD text label and a message showing track or
chapter number displays when a disc is in either slot.
Press again and the system automatically searches
for an auxiliary input device, such as a portable audio
player. If a portable audio player is not connected,
“No Aux Input Device” displays. If a disc is in both the
DVD slot and the CD slot the DVD/CD AUX button
cycles between the two sources and not indicate
“No Aux Input Device”. If a front auxiliary device is
connected, the DVD/CD AUX button cycles through all
available options, such as: DVD slot, CD slot, Front
Auxiliary, and Rear Auxiliary (if available). See “Using
the Auxiliary Input Jack(s)” later in this section, or
“Audio/Video (A/V) Jacks” under, Rear Seat
Entertainment (RSE) System on page 3-129 for
more information.
