AUXILIARY INPUT (AUX IN) SOCKET

AUX (Auxiliary Input) mode allows extra
equipment to be connected to the vehicle's
audio system. Items such as a personal stereo,
MP3 player, hand-held navigation unit etc., can
be plugged in to the vehicle's audio system.

Note: The volume levels and sound quality
available from devices connected to the
auxiliary inputs may vary widely. If the
connected audio device is equipped with a line
out socket as well as a headphone socket, the
line out socket should be used.

The auxiliary connector is situated at the rear of
the centre console.

Auxiliary audio devices are connected via the
3.5 mm stereo jack socket.

The auxiliary power socket, situated next to the
auxiliary input connector, can be used to power
or charge any suitable device.

WARNINGS

Make sure that any auxiliary devices
are stored securely while the vehicle is
in motion. Any loose objects can

present a serious hazard during sudden
manoeuvres, emergency braking or an
accident.

Do not place any item connected to the
auxiliary input socket or the auxiliary
power socket on the vehicle’s seats,

carpets, or other upholstery. The heat
generated by these devices may cause damage
to the upholstery, or in extreme cases, a
vehicle fire.

Do not leave any auxiliary input
devices connected while the vehicle is
left unattended. There is a risk of heat

damage or fire, in addition to the risk of theft.

CAUTION

Read the manufacturer's instructions
for any device before it is connected to
the vehicle's audio system. Keep to any

instructions about connection and operation
and make sure that the device is suitable.
Failure to do so may result in damage to the
vehicle's audio system or the auxiliary device.

With the starter switch in position I or II, the

not. The play and selection features of the
audio system will be available at the rear seat
controls. However, the output can only be
heard through the headphones.

If rear seat passengers are listening to the
same source as the front seat passengers, only
the volume can be adjusted at the rear seat
controls.

For example, if a music CD is playing on the
audio unit, rear seat passengers can listen to
that music and adjust the volume to suit their
requirement. No other functions will be
available.

If however, the audio unit is switched to
another source, e.g. radio, all CD related rear
seat controls become operable. If the audio
source is subsequently switched back to CD,
the rear seat controls will again be limited to
volume control only.

The same logic applies to radio functions.

Adjustments can be made to other functions of
the audio system.

For example, if a music CD is selected on the
audio unit, radio can be selected and controlled
using the rear seat controls. All radio related
rear seat controls become operable.

HEADPHONES

Note: Only headphones compatible with a 3.5
mm jack plug socket can be used. To obtain
optimum sound quality, use headphones with
an impedance of 32 ohms.

Note: When the headphones are not
connected, the rear seat controls remain
operational. It is still possible to select CD,
while the radio is playing on the audio unit. CD
play will remain operational until the mode
control is pressed again.

Note: The mode in use when the starter key is
removed will resume if the starter switch is
turned on again (position I or II) within two
minutes. If the starter switch is turned off for
longer than two minutes AUX mode will be
selected when the starter switch is next turned
on. For example, if a CD is playing when the key
is removed, play will restart when the starter
switch is next turned to position I, or the engine
is started, whether the headphones are in use
or not.

Note: Adjusting the volume on the audio unit,
does not alter the headphone volume. The
volume of each controller can be adjusted
independently.
