Warning!
G
Only operate an external audio source (Aux) 
when the vehicle is stationary. There is a risk 
of accident by being distracted from road 
and traffic conditions if you operate an ex-
ternal audio source (Aux) while the vehicle is 
in motion.
Bear in mind that at a speed of just 30 mph 
(approximately 50 km/h), your car is 
covering a distance of 44 feet 
(approximately 14 m) every second.
Warning!
G
Due to the different volumes of the external 
audio sources, system messages (e.g. traffic 
and navigation announcements) may be 
much louder. You may need to disable these 
system messages or adjust the volume of 
these messages manually.
i
Please refer to the relevant operating guide 
for operation of the external audio source.
i
The volume of external audio sources is ex-
tremely variable. It is possible that a device con-
nected as an external audio source will sound 
quieter or louder in the vehicle or that the usual 
maximum volume cannot be achieved. On cer-
tain devices the volume can be set separately. In 
this case, start at a moderate volume and in-
crease it slowly. In this way, you can determine 
whether the system is capable of playback with-
out distortion, even at high volume.
