AUX
The AUX (auxiliary) port, located under the cen-
ter armrest, can be used to connect for exam-
ple, an MP3 player.
If the player is being charged through a 12-volt
socket while it is connect to the AUX port,
sound quality may be impaired.
The volume of the external sound source AUX
may be different from the volume of the internal
sound sources such as the CD player or the
radio. If the external sound source's volume is
too high, the quality of the sound may be
impaired.
This can be prevented by adjusting the external
sound source's input volume.
1. While playing the radio or a CD, lower the
audio volume to about one-quarter.
2. Switch to AUX mode on the audio system
by pressing the MODE button.
3. Connect the headphone output from your
music player to the AUX input using a cable
with a stereo 3.5 mm miniplug at both
ends.
4. Set your music player's headphone vol-
ume to three-quarters using the player's
volume controls.
