AUX and USB Port
The AUX and USB ports are located
inside the compartment behind the
transmission shift lever. To access the
ports, push the lid as indicated: it will
open completely.
The AUX auxiliary port features:
• typical input impedance between
AUX-IN and AUX_REF: 13 Kohm;
• max. applicable voltage: 0.75 Vrms at
1 kHz;
• input compatible only with 3.5 mm
jack connectors (not included).
Any player with these characteristics
and analog audio output (headset
output type) can be served by the MTC
System. The system can recognize the
connection to a player outlet
autonomously enabling access to the
audio functions connected to this
source.
The USB port , available by
removing protection cap, allows the
data exchange and charge of the
connected source. If there are MP3
files on the USB device, they will
automatically start playing. If you are
already listening music from a
