UCI supports Mini, 4G, Photo, Nano, 5G iPod

௡ and

iPhone

௡ devices. Some iPod௡ software versions may not

fully support the UCI features. Please visit Apple’s
website for software updates.

NOTE:

• If the radio has a USB port, connecting an iPod௡ to this

port does not play the media. For playing an iPod

௡,

use the separate 16–pin connector port (in the glove
compartment on some vehicles).

• Connecting an iPod௡ to the AUX port located in the

radio faceplate, plays media, but does not use the UCI
feature to control the connected device.

Connecting The iPod

Use the optional connection cable to connect an iPod

௡ to

the vehicle’s 16–pin connector port (which is located in
the glove compartment on some vehicles). Once the
iPod

௡ is connected and synchronized to the vehicle’s UCI

system (iPod

௡ may take a few seconds to connect), the

iPod

௡ starts charging and is ready for use by pressing

radio switches, as described below.

NOTE:

• You may have to remove the connector pin protection

cap from the 16–pin connector port, prior to connect-
ing the cable.

• If the iPod௡ battery is completely discharged, it may

not communicate with the UCI system until a mini-
mum charge is attained. Leaving the iPod

௡ connected

to the UCI system may charge it to the required level.

Using This Feature

By using the optional connection cable to connect an
iPod

௡ to the vehicle’s UCI 16–pin connector port:

• The iPod௡ audio can be played on the vehicle’s sound

system, providing metadata (Artist, track title, album,
etc.) information on the radio display.
