About USB
Before Playing a USB MP3
Connect the USB device after turning on the engine. The USB
device may become damaged if it is already connected when the
ignition is turned on.
Files that are not standard format music/image files will not be
played.
For MP3/WMA files, only music files with compression rates between 8Kbps ~ 320Kbps can be played.
Heed caution to static electricity when connecting/disconnecting ex-ternal USB devices.
Encoded MP3 Players will not be recognized when connected as an external device.
When connecting an external USB device, the device may not prop-erly recognize the USB is in some states.
Only products formatted with byte/sectors under 64Kbyte will be rec-ognized.
This device recognizes USB devices formatted in FAT 12/16/32 file formats. This device does not recognize files in NTFS file format.
Some USB devices may not be supported due to compatibility is-sues.
Take caution so that the USB connector does not come in contact with body parts or objects.
Repeated connecting/disconnecting of USB devices within short peri- ods of time may result in product malfunction.
Make sure to connect/disconnect external USB devices with the au-dio power turned off.
The amount of time required to recognize the external USB device may differ depending on the type, size, or file formats stored on the
USB. Such differences in required time are not indications of mal-
function.
The use of USB devices for purposes other than playing music and image files is prohibited.
Do not use the USB I/F to charge batteries or USB accessories that generate heat. Such acts may lead to worsened performance or
damage to the device.

iPod Mode
Using iPod Devices
iPod® is a registered trademark of Apple Inc.
iPod mode will not operate if the connected iPod cannot be recognized due to operation of unsupported versions that do not support related
protocols, iPod abnormalities, or iPod device defects. Some iPods with
unsupported communication protocols may not properly operate with
the Navigation system.
For fifth generation iPod Nano devices, the iPod may not be recog-nized when the battery level is low. Please charge the iPod for use.
Search/play orders shown within the iPod device may differ with the orders shown within the Navigation system.
If the iPod malfunctions due to an iPod device defect, reset the iPod and try again. (To learn more, refer to your iPod manual)
For some iPod Touch and iPhone devices, connecting Bluetooth®
while the iPod is operating may result in discontinued iPod sound.
When such devices with Bluetooth
® support are connected, this prob-
lem occurs as the sound source is changed from the Dock Connector
(USB connector cable) to Bluebird. (Bluetooth
® Module)
To listen to the iPod sound, reconnect the USB cable or exit then re- enter iPod mode.
In order to use the iPod while operating the keys, you must use a dedi-cated iPod cable. (the cable that is supplied when purchasing iPod/
iPhone products)
※
Du
ring ACC ON state, connecting the iPod through the iPod cable
(The cable that is supplied when purchasing iPod/iPhone product.)
will charge the iPod through the head unit.
※ The use of genuine iPod cables supplied by Apple is recom-
mended. (The use of other products may result in noise
or abnormal operation.)
When connecting with the iPod cable, make sure to fully insert the jack
to prevent communication interference. If the iPod is connected to the
vehicle while it is playing, a high pitch tone may sound for about 1~2
seconds immediately after connection. If possible, connect the iPod to
the vehicle with the iPod stopped/paused.
Within iPhones, streaming audio and iPod control may occasionally conflict. If problems persist, remove the iPhone and connect again.
Some iPod versions may not sync with the system. In such cases, the system may not properly restore the previously operated mode. (For
iPads, battery charging is not supported.)
Applications that are not exclusively used as iPod Applications
within iPhone/iPod Touch devices are not supported.
