Î This audio system can select and
play the audio f iles on a USB f lash
memory device with the same
controls used f or the disc player. To
play a USB f lash memory device,
connect it to the USB adapter cable
in the console compartment, then

The audio system reads and plays
the audio f iles on the USB f lash

f ormat, the display shows MP3,
WMA or AAC when a USB flash
memory device is playing. The USB
f lash memory device limit is up to
700 f olders or up to 65535 f iles.Only AAC f ormat f iles recorded

memory devices are 256 MB or
higher, and f ormatted with the FAT
f ile system. Some digital audio
players may be compatible as well.
Depending on the type of
encoding and writing sof tware
used, there may be cases where
character inf ormation does not
display properly. Depending on the sof tware the
f iles were made with, it may not be
possibletoplaysomefiles,or

number of f iles, it may take some
time bef ore they begin to play. We recommend backing up your
data bef ore playing a USB f lash
memory device. Do not keep a USB f lash memory
device in the vehicle. Direct
sunlight and high heat will damage
it.
Do not use an extension cable to
the USB adapter cable equipped
with your vehicle. Do not connect your USB f lash
memory device using a hub. Do not use a device such as a card
reader or hard drive as the device
or your f iles may be damaged.
