I finally managed to make it work... connected my iPod using a male-male 3.5mm audio cable to connect my headphone out jack in the iPod to the A/V "IN" jack at the rear console

then you have to operate the TV, go to channel number "0" then scroll down to get the A/V channel ...

my iPod has no video so i get a black screen with flickers... I am sure if I connected iPod video i will get a picture as well... will try and see ... and surprisingly, the audio quality is amazing!

Thanks everyone

You will not get any video from an audio only cable. To get the video out of the Ipod you will need audio/video cable with a 3 banded 1/8" jack on the Ipod side to convey both video and stereo audio signals. Also for some reason apple has not followed the standard to convey video and sound so you will need a proprietary connection cable.
