142AUX-IN InputGeneral notes
The AUX-IN socket is found on the centre console, next to the
gearbox lever.The external audio sources connected to the AUX-IN socket will only be played
through the radio loudspeakers or the radio and navigation system. The
external audio sources can not be operated through the radio or the radio and
navigation system.
For operating the external audio source , consult the instructions manual of
the manufacturer in question.
If you wish, you can select whenever you want another audio source at the
radio or the radio and navigation system. While the external audio source is
not switched off, it will be playing as background. Take into account that the equipment does not change to the last selected
audio source on finishing the reproduction of the external audio source. The
radio or the radio and navigation system remain in the AUX menu. Another
radio source must be selected manually.
For the AUX-IN socket you need a 3.5 jack connector. If the external audio
source does not have this type of connector, an adapter should be used.
WARNING
The objects which are not attached inside the vehicle could hinder the
driver and cause severe injuries in the event of sharp braking or accident.•
The external audio source must not be placed on the instrument panel
in any case. A sharp manoeuvre can throw the device towards the compart-
ment and injure the vehicle passengers.
•
The external audio source must not be assembled in any case near the
airbag. See chapter “Airbag system”. A sharp manoeuvre can throw the
device towards the compartment and injure the vehicle passengers.
•
T he e xter na l a udio sou rce m ust n ot b e hel d in ha n d or o n th e legs w hile

while driving.Note

point, jamming may occur while playing with some adapters.
