input
An external audio source, e.g. an iPod
MP3 player, can be connected to the audio
system.
An audio source connected to the USB input
can be operated 25 using the car's audio con-
trols. A device connected via the AUX input
cannot be controlled via the car.
There is a recess in the right-hand rear edge
of the tunnel console where cables can be
routed so that the hatch can be closed with-
out cables being pinched.
