To connect the audio source:
Press MEDIA, turn TUNE to the desired audio source USB, iPod or AUX, press OK/MENU.
If USB is selected then Connect USB is shown in the display screen.
Connect your audio source to one of the connections in the centre console's storage compartment (see previous illustration).
The text Reading USB is shown in the display screen when the system is loading the storage media's file structure. Depending on the file structure and number of files there may be some delay before loading is finished.
Note
The system supports most iPod® models produced in 2005 or later.
Note
To prevent damage to the USB connection, this is shut off if the USB connection is short-circuited or if a connected USB unit is taking too much power (this may happen if the unit connected does not meet the USB standard). The USB connection is reactivated automatically the next time the ignition is turned on, unless the fault persists.
