Once you plug in your iphone and set it to play your song(s). Set your car player for AUX this will then pick up the device playing into the direct port. Hope this helps Fix ya up.
If you have all of the appropriate cables the iPod screen (on the CD player) should actually open automatically when you plug in your iPhone (or iPod). You can also open the program by clicking the iPod icon (once it's been connected).
Once the program is open you should have the option to click Music or Video. If you click Music then you should use the controls on the CD player to select and play your music. If you're trying to play video then use the iPod itself to control the playback.
Troubleshooting:
If the iPod screen is not opening once you plug in your device then there may be an issue with the cable. Verify that you have the correct iPod cable and that it's well connected to the mini-DIN connector on the back of the unit. It's not uncommon for that connection to come loose when installing the unit.
If you have additional questions please let me know. Best of luck!
The issue is your using the AUX cable and not the iPod cable. The AUX cable allows any audio source with a stereo jack to play through your cd player. To use this with your iPod you'll need to select the AUX input as the source, then using your iPod select and play your music selection (as if you were playing it through headphones).
You can't use the menu selection on your player to control your iphone without purchasing and installing the optional iPod cable.
To select the AUX option on a 8940NT:
When the unit in turned ON, press the [POWER/SOURCE] button to toggle between
the different modes as following:
RADIO – DVD – USB – IPOD – CDC – AV IN – AUX –RADIO
If you're using the Aux cable (which plugs into the earphone jack) then you need to be using the AUX option.
You can hit the Power/Source button on the CD player until you see AUX selected.
For it to play from your iPod you need to do the following:
On your iPhone:
1. Select the music you want to play and hit play. If the cable is unplugged you should hear it through the iPhone speakers.
2. With the music playing, plug the AUX cable in to the head phone jack on your iPhone
On your CD Player:
1. Plug the AUX cable into the AUX port on the CD Player
2. Using either the Power/Source Button on the CD player/ the Source button on the Remote, or the AUX icon on the screen - Enter the AUX mode
3. Adjust the volume of the CD player and you should now here music from your iPod through your car speakers
4. If you're not getting sound, verify the onscreen mute button is not selected and that your iPhone is still playing music.
If it's still not working the unit may be damaged or the AUX cable may be bad.

You would have to get one of the expansion cable;

Otherwise you will have to use the Jack for the 'AUX' at the front of the unit to the socket for the earphones of the Ipod, then set the player to 'AUX' mode but the control for the playback would still be on the iPod.
I see the model is different. No need then for the expander cable. If there is an option for the iPod use the cable that came with the iPod and connect it to the USB port of the radio. You should be able to control the selection via the car radio.
If the cable you are referring to for the AUX ports of the unit are the RCA cables then you should use A/V and you should use the port at the front for the small jack.
