A/V Inputs

WARNINGS

Driving while distracted can result in
loss of vehicle control, crash and
injury. We strongly recommend that

you use extreme caution when using any
device that may take your focus off the
road. Your primary responsibility is the safe
operation of your vehicle. We recommend
against the use of any handheld device
while driving and encourage the use of
voice-operated systems when possible.
Make sure you are aware of all applicable
local laws that may affect the use of
electronic devices while driving.

For safety reasons, do not connect
or adjust the settings on your
portable music player while your

vehicle is moving.

Store the portable music player in a
secure location, such as the center
console or the glove box, when your

vehicle is moving. Hard objects may
become projectiles in a crash or sudden
stop, which may increase the risk of serious
injury. The audio extension cable must be
long enough to allow the portable music
player to be safely stored while your
vehicle is moving.

Your A/V inputs allow you to connect an
auxiliary audio/video source (such as a
gaming systems or a personal camcorder)
by connecting RCA cords (not included)
to these input jacks. The jacks are yellow,
red and white and are located either
behind a small access door on the
instrument panel or in your center console.

You can also use the A/V inputs as an
auxiliary input jack to play music from your
portable music player over your vehicle's
speakers. Plug in your 1/8 inch (3.5
millimeter) RCA adapter into the two left
A/V input jacks (red and white).

Press the lower left corner of the
touchscreen, and then select A/V In.

To use the auxiliary input jack feature,
make sure that your portable music player
is designed for use with headphones and
that it is fully charged. You also need an
audio extension cable with stereo male
1/8-inch (3.5 millimeter) connectors at one
end and a RCA jack at the other.

1.

Switch off the engine, radio and
portable music player. Set the parking
brake and put the transmission in
position P (vehicle equipped with an
automatic transmission) or neutral
(vehicle equipped with a manual
transmission).

2. Attach one end of the audio extension

cable to the headphone output of your
player and the other end into the
adapter in one of the two left A/V input
jacks (white or red) inside the center
console.

3. Press the lower left corner on the

touchscreen. Select either a tuned FM
station or a CD (if there is a CD already
loaded into the system).

4. Adjust the volume as desired.

5. Turn the portable music player on and

adjust the volume to ½ the maximum.

6. Press the lower left corner on the

touchscreen. Select the A/V In tab.
(You should hear audio from your
portable music player although it may
be low.)

7.

Adjust the sound on your portable
music player until it reaches the level
of the FM station or CD by switching
back and forth between the controls.

In order to playback video from your iPod
or iPhone, you must have a special
combination USB/RCA composite video
cable (which you can buy from Apple).
When you connect the cable to your iPod
or iPhone, plug the other end into both the
RCA jacks and the USB port.

Troubleshooting

•

Do not connect the audio input jack to
a line level output. The jack only works
correctly with devices that have a
headphone output with a volume
control.

•

Do not set the portable music player's
volume level higher than is necessary
to match the volume of the CD or FM
radio as this causes distortion and
reduces sound quality.

•

If the music sounds distorted at lower
listening levels, turn the portable music
player volume down. If the problem
persists, replace or recharge the
batteries in the portable media player.

•

Control the portable media player in
the same manner when used with
headphones, as the auxiliary input jack
does not provide control (such as Play
or Pause) over the attached portable
media player.

Hands-free calling is one of the main
features of SYNC. Once you pair your
phone, you can access many options using
the touchscreen or voice commands. While
the system supports a variety of features,
many are dependent on your cellular
phone’s functionality.

At a minimum, most cellular phones with
Bluetooth wireless technology support the
following functions:

•

Answering an incoming call

•

Ending a call

•

Using privacy mode

•

Dialing a number

•

Redialing

•

Call waiting notification

•

Caller ID.

Other features, such as text messaging
using Bluetooth and automatic phonebook
download, are phone-dependent features.
