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 numerical 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,
connection 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 relocating 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 an-
tenna, it is recommended that the radio volume be turned
down or off during mobile phone operation when not
using Uconnect (if equipped).
