Notes and restrictions
The number of USB connections
and compatibility with Apple devices and other media
players depends on the equipment level.
The USB port supplies the customary USB voltage of 5 volts.
Due to the large number of different data media and different iPod, iPad and iPhone generations,
it cannot be ensured that all the functions described can be executed error-free for all of them.
Depending on the Infotainment system used, external hard disks with a capacity greater than
32 GB sometimes need to be reformatted for the FAT32 file system. You can find the necessary
software and information online, for example.
