How do I use an AUX cord in a Ford Focus?

I was just gifted a 2012 Ford Focus from my mom. I know nothing about it, but I want to play my music as I drive. How do I connect my AUX cord to a Ford Focus?

Congratulations on your new car! To connect your aux cord to your
2012 Focus
:
  • Start by finding the AUX plug on the dashboard or located in the center console of the vehicle.
  • Once you’ve located it, connect your AUX cord to the plug and connect the other end of the cord to your smartphone.
  • Set the car stereo to AUX input by cycling through the AUX button until you see ‘LINE IN’ populate on the display.
Select the music you’d like to play on your phone, and you’re all set! If you’re having trouble getting music to play, consider getting a Bluetooth transmitter or possibly upgrading your stereo. Either option will ensure you can always listen to music while you drive.
