USB Direct Control for iPhone

Pioneer’s AVH-221EX is ready to roll with direct connectivity to your iPod or iPhone for music. Song, artist, time and album information are beautifully displayed on the 6.2″ touchscreen.

A USB connection provides direct digital signal transfer from the device for clean, clear sound while providing 1 amp of current to keep your iPod/iPhone charged.

Hands-Free Calling and Audio Streaming

Stay safe and obey local hands-free laws with built-in Bluetooth (HFP). Easily pair a Bluetooth enabled phone to the AVH-221EX without having to go through complicated settings. When a registered Bluetooth device is near the receiver, the auto connection function automatically pairs the two units.

From wireless audio streaming (A2DP), hands-free calling, and simple pairing, to audio control and  artist, album, and song search (AVRCP 1.6 profile*), Bluetooth® wireless technology has made life in the vehicle much more convenient.

The AVH-221EX features Bluetooth Hands Free Profile 1.6 including Wideband Speech capability, which improves the sound quality of phone calls by offering double the frequency bandwidth (when compared to calls without Wideband Speech)**.

*Search functions vary by phone.
**Call quality depends on wireless provider’s support of HFP 1.6.
