That's correct.

But honestly, can't the carmakers do a better job with the manual? hey,
Toyota--burn that Prius manual and pay someone some real money to come
up with one that makes sense the *first* time through.
better yet, burn the car and let the honda sell hybrid
civics to the deperate greenies

back to the original topic: looks like the crap from apple can't
be controlled thru the usb port found on most aftermarket units
these days and requires a dedicated (proprietary) interface:
what a piece of crappola from appola

Howard is right. I just had a look at the HSN document he references, and
it says just what he quoted. The iPod Shuffle won't work with the Fit's
radio.

You might try something like this:

http://catalog.belkin.com/IWCatProdu...duct_Id=149006

if the shuffle has the standard dock connector.

This is specifically for the Shuffle:

I've been using the Belkin in my 06 Civic through the auxiliary jack.
It charges the iPod, too.

I bought an 07 Honda Fit....So far, so good. I like the little
feller, nice
and sporty with a tight 5spd transmission.

I'm pleasantly surprised at the audio...the sound quality is good, the
radio
reception is ok...

My question involves the AUX...Down in the console, there is a plug
with AUX
on it..it is next to the power cord plug..A mini stereo plug fits in
the
hole marked AUX and the word AUX comes up on the radio display.
I have an Ipod Shuffle... If I connect the Ipod shuffle to the AUX
...nothing happens...I've read in the owners manual, but I'm not real
sure
about details..
Any ideas? Is the Ipod Shuffle compatible with the system?

Thanks.
Perry
