   • Note: Connection of the Auxiliary cable to the JMDM-GL18E will override the USB Thumb drive and music from the USB Thumb drive will not be heard until the aux cable is unplugged at the main unit.

   • Using the “Tune/Disc” up-down toggle control on the handlebar, select between individual tracks with each single toggle, or hold up/down for 3 seconds to change to a different folder/CD #.
   • Important Note: When installing this unit on 2009-2010 GL-1800s, if you wish to use the factory-installed XM satellite radio feature of your audio system, in conjunction with the J&M digital music player, you will need to purchase at an additional cost J&M part# JMDM-ADT-GL18.

General Operation Instructions

General Tips for Use with Aux Input

• When the Auxiliary audio cable is plugged into the JMDM-GL18E the music from the USB Thumb drive will no longer be heard. Plug the auxiliary cable into the satellite radio/MP3 player.
• The “Tune/Disc” handlebar lever will have no effect on the functions of the satellite radio/MP3 player.

General Tips for Use with USB Thumb Drive

1. Plug your USB Thumb Drive into the computer.
2. Click on Start and then Computer.
3. Now find the USB thumb drive (designated as Disk (F): in this example)
4. Click on the Removable Disk (F): and you should now have an open folder, this is also known as the Root Folder.
5. At this point, Music can be added to the USB Thumb-Drive. You will need to locate your MP3, WMA, or WAV files on your computer.
6. To transfer music files from your computer to the USB Thumb-Drive, drag and drop at least one track (up to 95) into this main root folder. This main root folder must contain at least one MP3, WMA or WAV file/track or the JMDM-GL18E will not play. This main root folder will be displayed on the Honda radio display as CD1.
   • Additional folders can now be added to the root folder by clicking on (Top-Left) File, then New, then Folder.
   • For 2001-2010 GL-1800, it works best to limit the # of folders to 5, plus the root, with no more than 95 files/tracks per folder. The suggested file format for music is MP3, while WMA & .WAV can be used if the files/tracks are not copy-protected. If you are using iTunes, the music files will need to be converted to MP3 before they are loaded into the USB thumb drive.
   • Here is an example of five folders with 39 music files/tracks in the main root folder.
7. When you are finished loading the USB thumb drive, unplug it from the computer, insert it into the JMDM-GL18E, and select CD on the Honda audio system control panel.
8. The music will begin to play and is displayed as CD1 and you can track up/down within the CD1 root folder, by using the handlebar control. To change to the next folder press and hold the “Tune/Disc” up toggle for three seconds and CD2 will begin to play. If you do not press and hold the “Tune/Disc” up/down toggle for three seconds, the next track will play in CD1 instead of the CD2 folder.
