WARNING
Do not adjust the portable audio unit or a

Adjusting the portable audio unit
or a similar product while driving
the vehicle is dangerous as it could
distract your attention from the vehicle
operation which could lead to a serious
accident. Always adjust the portable
audio unit or a similar product while
the vehicle is stopped.
CAUTION
Depending on the portable audio
device, noise may occur when the
device is connected to the vehicle
accessory socket. (If noise occurs, do
not use the accessory socket.)
NOTE
This mode may not be usable depending on
the portable audio device to be connected.
Before using the auxiliary jack/USB
port, refer to the instruction manual for
the portable audio device.
Use a commercially-available, non-
impedance (3.5

connecting the portable audio unit to
the auxiliary jack. Before using the
auxiliary jack, read the manufacturer's
instructions for connecting a portable

To prevent discharging of the battery,
do not use the auxiliary input for long
periods with the engine off or idling.
