• The amount of time required to
recognize the USB device may dif‐
fer depending on the type, size or
file formats stored on the USB.
Such differences in time are not
indications of malfunctions.
• The vehicle audio system only
supports USB devices designed to
play music files.
• USB images and videos are not
supported.
• Do not use the USB I/F to charge
batteries or USB accessories that
generate heat. Doing so may lead
to worsened performance or dam‐

nize the USB device if separately
