To Play a USB Flash Memory
Device
This audio system can select and
play the audio files from a USB flash
memory device with the same
controls used for the in-dash disc
player. To play a USB flash memory
device, connect it to the USB adapter
cable in the console compartment,
then press the USB/AUX button.
The ignition switch must be in the
ACCESSORY (I) or ON (II) position.
The recommended USB flash
memory devices are 256 MB or
higher, and formatted with the FAT
file system. Some digital audio
players may be compatible as well.
Some USB flash memory devices
(such as devices with security lock-
out features, etc.) will not work in
this audio unit.
NOTE:
Do not use a device such as a card
reader or hard drive as the device
or your files may be damaged.
Do not connect your USB flash
memory device using a hub.
Do not use an extension cable to
the USB adapter cable equipped
with your vehicle.
Do not keep a USB flash memory
device in the vehicle. Direct
sunlight and high heat will damage
it.
