Refer to Table 1. The Apple iPod nano has been tested and certified to operate with the Advanced Audio System.
While other devices can operate with the audio system, Harley-Davidson cannot guarantee the functionality or complete compatibility of devices other than the iPod nano. Use of non-certified devices is done at the risk of the owner.
If the audio system recognizes a device other than an iPod nano, a warning message will be displayed. To continue using a non-certified device with the motorcycle, press and hold the OK soft key to clear the warning message.
NOTE
Hard drive-based devices are not recommended for use on the motorcycle, as these devices are sensitive to vibration and can become internally damaged. Also, devices which do not have a standard iPod dock interface cannot connect with the audio system cable and are not compatible for use.
