Important Notice regarding Volume of
Navigation Voice Guidance when Playing
Audio Files from USB or SD
If music files stored on an external storage device
(USB or SD) are played when the system is in
Route Guidance Mode (i.e., a destination has
been selected and the system is routing you to a
destination), the volume of the navigation gui-
dance voice will be the same as the volume of the
music files being played, even if a different
“
Mas-
ter
”
volume or
“
Voice
”
volume or
“
Dynamic
”
vo-
lume has been selected in the
“
Sound Settings
”
menu. This condition only applies to music files
stored on a USB device or SD card; it does not
apply to music files stored on an iPod or a disc,
nor does it apply to broadcast content (FM, AM,
XM, Sirius, HD).
Setting the rear output
The navigation system
’
s rear output can be

.
When a subwoofer is connected to the rear

Acquiring/Cataloging iPod
music information
If you always set the language other than
“
Eng-
lish
”
on
“
Program language:
”
, this setting is
unnecessary.
Unless [
VR Catalog Mode
] is turned off, this
navigation system tries to acquire the informa-
tion needed to operate iPod with voice com-
mands. It may take a short period of time to
transfer the information. Change the setting
according to your usage.
The navigation system starts acquiring/catalo-
ging music information (1) when the iPod is
connected or when the system boots up while
the iPod is connected and (2) when iPod is the
selected and displayed AV Source, unless [
VR
Catalog Mode
] is turned off.
p
If you do not use iPod, this setting is un-
necessary.
p
During transfer, iPod operations (such as
[
Shuffle
], [
Menu
], or [
Video
]) are not
available.
p
Once the cataloging is completed, you can
deactivate [
VR Catalog Mode
] until you
update the content/data on iPod. If you up-
date the iPod data, activate [
VR Catalog
Mode
] again to transfer the music informa-
tion and synchronize the music information
for voice commands with the data on iPod.
p
After you select
“
Off
”
in [
VR Catalog
Mode
], the system doesn
’
t catalog the
data on the iPod. In such case, the pre-
viously cataloged data are available as
voice commands.
p
Once you start the cataloging process, only
a few basic voice commands can be used
for iPod until the process has completely
finished.
p
If unreadable characters are included in
the data on your iPod, names or types may
not be available as voice commands.
