Using Auxiliary Input Jack - Pontiac 2009 Torrent Owner's Manual

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
changer, 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.
O (Power/Volume): Turn clockwise or
counterclockwise to increase or decrease the
volume of the portable player. Additional volume
adjustments might need to be made from the portable
device if the volume does not go loud or soft enough.
BAND: Press to listen to the radio when a portable
audio device is playing. The portable audio device
continues playing until it is powered off.
3-86
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 or No Aux may display.
DVD/CD AUX (CD/Auxiliary) (Radio with CD and
DVD): Press to cycle through DVD, CD, or Auxiliary
while listening to the radio. The DVD/CD text tab 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 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
AUX, and Rear AUX (if available). See "Using the
Auxiliary Input Jack(s)" later in this section, or Rear
Seat Entertainment (RSE) System on page 3-109,
"Audio/Video (A/V) Jacks" for more information.
