WARNINGS

Store the portable music player in a
secure location, such as the center
console or the glove box, when your

vehicle is moving. Hard objects may
become projectiles in a crash or sudden
stop, which may increase the risk of serious
injury. The audio extension cable must be
long enough to allow the portable music
player to be safely stored while your
vehicle is moving.

E176636

Your auxiliary input jack allows you to play
music from your portable music player over
your vehicle's speakers. The jack is located
in your center console.

Press the lower left corner of the
touchscreen, and then select Line In.

To use the auxiliary input jack feature,
make sure that your portable music player
is designed for use with headphones and
that it is fully charged. You also need an
audio extension cable with stereo male
1/8-inch (3.5 millimeter) connectors at
both ends.

1.

Switch off the radio and portable music
player. Apply the parking brake and
shift the transmission into park (P) for
automatic transmission or first gear for
manual transmission. Switch the
ignition off.

2. Attach one end of the audio extension

cable to the headphone output of your
player and the other end into the
adapter in one of the jack inside the
center console.

3. Press the lower left corner on the

touchscreen. Select either a tuned FM
station or a CD (if there is a CD already
loaded into the system).

4. Adjust the volume as desired.
5. Turn the portable music player on and

adjust the volume to ½ the maximum.

6. Press the lower left corner on the

touchscreen. Select the Line In tab.
(You should hear audio from your
portable music player although it may
be low.)

7.

Adjust the sound on your portable
music player until it reaches the level
of the FM station or CD by switching
back and forth between the controls.

Troubleshooting

Do not connect the audio input jack to
a line level output. The jack only works
correctly with devices that have a
headphone output with a volume
control.

Do not set the portable music player's
volume level higher than is necessary
to match the volume of the CD or FM
radio as this causes distortion and
reduces sound quality.

If the music sounds distorted at lower
listening levels, turn the portable music
player volume down. If the problem
persists, replace or recharge the
batteries in the portable media player.

Control the portable media player in
the same manner when used with
headphones, as the auxiliary input jack
does not provide control (such as Play
or Pause) over the attached portable
media player.
