Audiobooks may not play in the same order as
they appear on an iPod.
• Large video files cause slow responses in an
iPod. The vehicle centre display may momen-
tarily black out, but will soon recover.
• If an iPod automatically selects large video files
while in the shuffle mode, the vehicle centre dis-
play may momentarily black out, but will soon
recover.

used with this system. For detailed information
about Bluetooth® audio devices that are avail-
able for use with this system, contact an ap-
proved dealer or qualified workshop.
• Before using
aBluetooth® audio system, the ini-
tial registration process for the audio device is
necessary.
• Operation of the Bluetooth® audio system may
vary depending on the audio device that is con-
nected. Confirm the operation procedure before
use.
• The playback of Bluetooth® audio will be paused
under the following conditions. The playback will
be resumed after the following conditions are

Compact Disc (CD)/USB device with
MP3/WMA/AAC (where fitted)
Terms:
• MP3
—MP3 is short for Moving Pictures Ex-
perts Group Audio Layer 3. MP3 is the most well
known compressed digital audio file format. This
format allows for near “CD quality” sound, but at
af raction of the size of normal audio files. MP3
conversion of an audio track from CD can re-
duce the file size by approximately 10:1 ratio
(Sampling: 44.1 kHz, Bit rate: 128 kbps) with
virtually no perceptible loss in quality. MP3 com- pression removes the redundant and irrelevant
parts of
asound signal that the human ear
doesn’t hear.
• WMA
—Windows Media Audio (WMA) is a
compressed audio format created by Microsoft
as an alternative to MP3. The WMA codec offers
greater file compression than the MP3 codec,
enabling storage of more digital audio tracks in
the same amount of space when compared to
MP3s at the same level of quality.
• AAC (where fitted)
—Advanced Audio Coding
(AAC) is acompressed audio format. AAC of-
fers greater file compression than MP3 and en-
ables music file creation and storage at the same
quality as MP3.
• Bit rate
—Bit rate denotes the number of bits
per second used by adigital music files. The size
and quality of acompressed digital audio file is
determined by the bit rate used when encoding
the file.
• Sampling frequency
—Sampling frequency is
the rate at which the samples of asignal are con-
verted from analog to digital (A/D conversion)
per second.
• Multisession
—Multisession is one of the meth-
ods for writing data to media. Writing data once
to the media is called asingle session, and writ-
ing more than once is called amultisession.

ANTENNA
Roof
antenna
The antenna can be removed if necessary.
Hold the bottom of the antenna and remove by turn-
ing anticlockwise.

and tighten. CAUTION
To avoid damaging or deforming the antenna, be
sure to remove the antenna under the following
conditions.
• The vehicle enters an automatic car wash.
• The vehicle enters
agarage with alow ceiling.
• The vehicle is covered with
acar cover.
Pillar antenna
Adjust the antenna length for the best reception. A
fully extended antenna is usually best for distant re-
ception.
CAUTION
To prevent damage, be sure that the antenna is
retracted before the vehicle enters an automatic
car wash.
USB (Universal Serial Bus) connection
port WARNING
Do not connect, disconnect or operate the USB
device while driving. Doing so can be adistrac-
tion. If distracted you could lose control of your
vehicle and cause an accident or serious injury. CAUTION
• Do not force the USB device into the USB
port. Inserting the USB device tilted or up-
side-down into the port may damage the port.
Make sure that the USB device is connected
correctly into the USB port.
• Do not grab the USB port cover (where fitted)
when pulling the USB device out of the port.
This could damage the port and the cover.
• Do not leave the USB cable in
aplace where
it can be pulled unintentionally. Pulling the
cable may damage the port.

DR (where fitted)
–AM
Radio band select buttons
Press the button to change the audio
transmission source as follows:
FM1 →FM2 →DR1 →DR2 →AM →FM1
When button is pressed, the radio will
come on at the last received radio station. If audio is
already playing using one of the other input sources
(iPod, Bluetooth, CD, USB, AUX-in) pressing the
button will switch off the playing source
mode and the last received radio station will be se-
lected.
Setting preset stations
Auto populating the [FM List]: When the button is pressed for more than
1.5 seconds the six stations with the strongest sig-
nals are stored in the preset (1 to 6) buttons of the
band. During the search, anotification message
[Updating FM List] appears in the display and the
sound is muted until the operation is complete. Once
completed, the radio reverts to the previously se-
lected radio station. Manual tuning

DAB and Radio Data System (RDS)
operation (where fitted)
The RDS is asystem through which encoded digital
information is transmitted by FM radio stations in
addition to the normal FM radio broadcasting. The
RDS provides information services such as station
name, traffic information, or news.
DAB (Digital Audio Broadcast) NOTE
• When in DR mode operation is similar to FM
mode but may slightly differ.
• In some countries or regions, some of these
services may not be available.
Alternative Frequency (AF) mode:
The AF mode operates in the FM (radio) mode.
• The AF mode operates in the FM (radio), AUX or
CD mode (if FM was previously selected in the
radio mode).
• The AF function compares signal strengths and
selects the station with the optimum reception
conditions for the currently tuned-in station.
DAB and RDS functions
Programme Service (PS) function (station name
display function):
–F M:
When an RDS station is tuned in with seek or
manual tuning, the RDS data is received and the
PS name is displayed.
–D R:
When astation is tuned in with seek or manual
tuning, the data is received and the PS name is
