Auxiliary Audio Input Jack

The infotainment system has a 3.5mm (1/8 in.) auxiliary audio input jack available on the face of the radio. This input interfaces internally with the radio, no external circuits are involved. When a portable audio playback device is connected to an auxiliary jack, an internal switch detects the connection and the radio will switch to AUX as the audio source.

USB Port

The vehicle may be equipped with a USB port. The USB port may be located in the instrument panel, or in the storage compartment in the console. This port allows USB connectivity to the infotainment system from portable media players or a USB storage device (memory stick/flash drive). When a device is connected to the USB port, the system detects the device and switches to USB as the audio source. Once connected, the device can be controlled from the radio controls.

The USB port is connected to the radio via a standard USB cable. Mini type USB connectors are used to connect the cable at the USB port and at the radio. Standard USB male to female connections are typically used for connecting USB cables together where an in-line connection is required. An in-line cable connection is typically found between the console and I/P harness.

Not all portable media player devices are compatible. Memory stick/ flash drive capability is limited to MP3 and WMA file types only. Video transfer from any device is not supported. Refer to the owner's manual for information on USB devices, control, and operation.
