IPOD/USB/MP3 CONTROL — IF EQUIPPED

Located on the center stack, just below the instrument panel,

is the main media hub. There are four total USB Ports : Two

Mini-USBs (Type C) and two Standard USBs (Type A). There

is also an AUX Port located in the middle of the USB Ports.

All four of the USB Ports include a USB Trident and a numer-

ical value one through three, which indicates that the vehicle

can support three fully-functioning USB Ports at a time. Each

USB Port will support media and charging simultaneously.
NOTE:
• The Type C USB port is the primary media port for the

radio. Two devices can be plugged in at the same time and

both ports provide charging capabilities, but only one port

can transfer data to the head unit at a time.

• Both ports share a single data connection. However, the

user cannot switch between Type A or Type C.

For example, if a device is plugged into the Type A USB port

and another device is plugged into the Type C port, connec-

tion to the Type A port will be lost. Alternatively, if a device

is plugged into the Type C port and another device is

plugged into the Type A port, the Type C device maintains

primary connection.

RADIO OPERATION AND MOBILE PHONES

Under certain conditions, the mobile phone being on in your

vehicle can cause erratic or noisy performance from your

radio. This condition may be lessened or eliminated by relo-

cating the mobile phone antenna. This condition is not

harmful to the radio. If your radio performance does not

satisfactorily “clear” by the repositioning of the antenna, it is

recommended that the radio volume be turned down or off

during mobile phone operation when not using Uconnect (if

equipped).

Regulatory And Safety Information

USA/CANADA
Exposure to Radio Frequency Radiation
The radiated output power of the internal wireless radio is

far below the FCC and IC radio frequency exposure limits.

Nevertheless, the wireless radio will be used in such a

manner that the radio is 8 in (20 cm) or further from the

human body.
The internal wireless radio operates within guidelines found

in radio frequency safety standards and recommendations,

which reflect the consensus of the scientific community.
The radio manufacturer believes the internal wireless radio

is safe for use by consumers. The level of energy emitted is

far less than the electromagnetic energy emitted by wireless

devices such as mobile phones. However, the use of wireless

radios may be restricted in some situations or environments,

such as aboard airplanes. If you are unsure of restrictions,

you are encouraged to ask for authorization before turning

on the wireless radio.

the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15

of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide

reasonable protection against harmful interference in a
