Playing media via the USB port
External audio sources, such as an iPod® or
MP3 player, can be connected to the audio sys-
tem via the vehicle's USB port.
Devices with rechargeable batteries can be
charged when they are connected via the USB
port and the ignition is in mode I, II or the engine
is running.
The content on the external source can be read
faster if it only contains data of a compatible for-
mat. Video files can also be played via the USB
port.
Some MP3 players have their own file system
that the vehicle has support for.
