Drivers are encouraged to
set up any auxiliary device
while the vehicle is in P (Park).
See Defensive Driving

on driver distraction.
To use a portable audio player,
connect a 3.5 mm (1/8 in) 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 (DVD/CD/
Auxiliary): Press to cycle
through DVD, CD, or Auxiliary
when listening to the radio.
The DVD/CD text tab and a
message showing track or chapter
number will display 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 does 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 in this
section, or Audio/Video (A/V)
