Using Music Link With Honda TTS 

(Continued)

Table of Contents

Using the Audio System Controls

Music Link allows you to use the buttons on your audio
system to control iPod functions. There are six play
modes/categories, or six ways to listen to music. Each
disc number (1–6) corresponds with a play mode/
category in Music Link. For example, selecting disc
number 1 on your audio system corresponds to the

search playlists 

category in Music Link.

NOTE:

Honda factory-installed audio systems vary from

model to model and may have different button names
for the same functions. 

To select Music Link,

press the CD/AUX or

CD/AUX/XM button (depending on your Accord model).

To select a play mode/category,

use the DISC– and

DISC+ buttons (Preset 5 and Preset 6, respectively) or
the CH DISC button to scroll thru the disc numbers.
When the desired disc number is shown in the audio
system display, press and hold either SEEK/SKIP
button (

or  ) for at least 1 full second (or, on some

models, until you hear a beep).

NOTES:

Depending on the model, the steering wheel audio
controls may not operate or may have limited
operation when using Music Link.

It is not necessary to eject any CDs in the CD
player/changer to use Music Link. Press the CD/AUX
or CD/AUX/XM button to toggle between the CD
player/changer and Music Link.

When Music Link is cycling through the alphabet or
announcing names, you cannot select another play
mode/category. You can only select another play
mode/category when Music Link is playing a song.
