Audio USB and AUX Inputs

PORTABLE AUDIO PLAYER INTEGRATION
USING THE USB PORT OR AUX JACK
Your vehicle is equipped with a USB port and
auxiliary AUX jack, conveniently located in the
center console, that allows you to play your iPod,
USB device, or portable audio player through the
vehicle's audio system. The center console is useful
for storing your personal media/phone devices.
Learn the system when parked and do not let it
distract you while driving.
IMPORTANT:
• Set the volume level on your portable audio player to the highest level before
distortion starts, then use the vehicle's audio system to adjust the volume.
• Unplug any device from the USB port and accessory socket before turning off
the vehicle. Leaving devices plugged in can drain the battery and cause issues
during the Bluetooth pairing process at startup. Wait about 15 seconds after
starting the vehicle before plugging anything into the USB port.
NOTE:
You will need an audio cable with an 1/8 inch (3.5 mm)
mini stereo plug (available as a Genuine Mazda accessory) to
connect your portable audio player into the AUX jack.
1 Locate the USB port or AUX jack.
2 Connect the device plug into the portable audio player and into the
USB port or AUX jack.
3 Turn the vehicle audio system on.
4 • Audio Controls (without Mazda Connect): Push the MEDIA
button on the audio unit to switch to the AUX or USB mode.
• Audio Controls (with Mazda Connect): Select AUX or USB from
the Sources menu.
5 • USB Port: Use the vehicle's audio system or steering wheel controls
to control the connected USB device.
• AUX Jack: Use the portable audio player controls to play music.
Refer to the Owner's Manual for additional information.
NOTE:
When using a USB memory stick, the system plays the first audio file when
restarting the vehicle. It does not start where it left off when turning off the engine.
12 VOLT ACCESSORY SOCKETS
The accessory socket in the dash is on with ignition on and the accessory socket
in the center console is always on.
NOTE:
When using the accessory socket in the center console, make sure to
disconnect any device from it when turning off the ignition, otherwise the vehicle's
31
battery could go dead.
