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 selectA/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 1/8th-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 positionP.
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
1 2the
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® (if compatible),
you must have a special combination USB/RCA composite video cable
(which you can buy from Apple®). When the cable is connected 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.
