Description

The AUX, iPod, and USB Jack on the center console is for customers who listen to music through the vehicle's sound system using external portable music players such as an MP3 player, iPod, earphone, USB memory stick, portable CD player, etc, attached to this jack. This is an added option for the customer.

If distortions occur from the media connected to the AUX/iPOD/USB Jack, the audio unit may not be defective, rather, the output level of the media being used does not match the specification of the AUX input.

Introduction to SIRIUS radio

SIRIUS-Radio is a Satellite Based Radio Broadcast System that operates around 2.3 GHz from two 15,000 watt satellites. The service covers Continental US and Canada, however, the service in Canada is not guaranteed.

Due to the limitations of satellite transmission, the signal is not able to penetrate buildings, so it cannot effectively cover dense urban areas. The terrestrial repeater network extends SDARS coverage, and allows providers to reach the greatest number of subscribers and provide quality coverage. The repeaters receive the SIRIUS signal directly from the satellites, and then retransmit it to SIRIUS radios anywhere.

SIRIUS provides digitalized radio programs in terms of channels. Each channel is a program that the user can tune to. A category is a group of channels. Examples of categories are classical, news, and sports.

SIRIUS is a paid service, meaning users have to subscribe to SIRIUS before they can enjoy the programs.

However, SIRIUS does give some free-to-air channels. The users can listen to one of these channels without having a subscription.
