CD Messages
CHECK CD:If this message displays and/or
the CD comes out, it could be for one of the
following reasons:
It is very hot. When the temperature returns
to normal, the CD should play.
You are driving on a very rough road.
When the road becomes smoother,
the CD should play.
The CD is dirty, scratched, wet,
or upside down.
The air is very humid. If so, wait about
an hour and try again.
There could have been a problem while
burning the CD.
The label could be caught in the CD player.
If the CD is not playing correctly, for any
other reason, try a known good CD.
If any error occurs repeatedly or if an error cannot
be corrected, contact your dealer/retailer. If the
radio displays an error message, write it down and
provide it to your dealer/retailer when reporting
the problem.
Using an MP3
MP3 CD-R Disc
MP3 Format
If you burn your own MP3 disc on a personal
computer:
Make sure the MP3 les are recorded on a
CD-R disc.
Do not mix standard audio and MP3 les
on one disc.
Make sure playlists have a .mp3 or .wpl
extension, other le extensions might not work.
Files can be recorded with a variety of xed
or variable bit rates. Song title, artist name,
and album are displayed by the radio when
recorded using ID3 tags version 1 and 2.
Create a folder structure that makes it easy
to nd songs while driving. Organize songs
by albums using one folder for each album.
Each folder or album should contain 18 songs
or less.
Make sure to nalize the disc when burning an
MP3 disc, using multiple sessions. It is usually
better to burn the disc all at once.
234

Page 235 of 496

The player is able to read and play a maximum of
50 folders, 50 playlists, 10 sessions, and 255 les.
Long le names, folder names, or playlist names
may use more disc memory space than necessary.
To conserve space on the disc, minimize the length
of the le, folder, or playlist names. You can also
play an MP3 CD-R that was recorded using no le
folders. The system can support up to 11 folders in
depth, though, keep the depth of the folders to a
minimum in order to keep down the complexity
and confusion in trying to locate a particular folder
during playback. If a CD contains more than the
maximum of 50 folders, 50 playlists, 10 sessions,
and 255 les the player lets you access and
navigate up to the maximum, but all items over
the maximum are played.
Root Directory
The root directory is treated as a folder. If the root
directory has compressed audio les, the directory
displays as F1 ROOT. All les contained directly
under the root directory are accessed prior to any
root directory folders. However, playlists (Px) are
always accessed before root folders or les.
Empty Directory or Folder
If a root directory or a folder exists somewhere
in the le structure that contains only folders/
subfolders and no compressed les directly
beneath them, the player advances to the next
folder in the le structure that contains compressed
audio les. The empty folder does not display.
No Folder
When the CD contains only compressed les,
the les are located under the root folder. The next
and previous folder functions have no function on a
CD that was recorded without folders or playlists.
When displaying the name of the folder the radio
displays ROOT.
When the CD contains only playlists and
compressed audio les, but no folders, all les
are located under the root folder. The folder down
and the folder up buttons search playlists (Px)
rst and then go to the root folder. When the
radio displays the name of the folder, the radio
displays ROOT.

Order of Play
Tracks are played in the following order:
Play begins from the rst track in the
rst playlist and continues sequentially
through all tracks in each playlist. When
the last track of the last playlist has played,
play continues from the rst track of the
rst playlist.
If the CD does not contain any playlists,
then play begins from the rst track under
the root directory. When all tracks from
the root directory have played, play continues
from les according to their numerical
listing. After playing the last track from the
last folder, play begins again at the rst track
of the rst folder or root directory.
When play enters a new folder, the display
does not automatically show the new folder
name unless you have chosen the folder mode
as the default display. See DISPL (display) later
in this section for more information. The new
track name displays.
File System and Naming
The song name that displays is the song name
that is contained in the ID3 tag. If the song
name is not present in the ID3 tag, then the
radio displays the le name without the extension
(such as .mp3) as the track name.
Track names longer than 32 characters or
four pages are shortened. Parts of words on
the last page of text and the extension of
the lename does not display.
Preprogrammed Playlists
Preprogrammed playlists which were created by
WinAmp™, MusicMatch™, or Real Jukebox™
software can be accessed, however, they cannot
be edited. These playlists are treated as special
folders containing compressed audio song les.
Playing an MP3
Insert a CD partway into the slot, label side up.
The player pulls it in, and READING displays.
The CD should begin playing and the CD symbol
displays. If you want to insert a CD with the
ignition off, rst press the
Zbutton or the
DISPL knob.
236

If the ignition or radio is turned off with a CD
in the player it stays in the player. When
the ignition or radio is turned on, the CD starts
to play where it stopped, if it was the last
selected audio source.
As each new track starts to play, the track
number displays.
The CD player can play the smaller 3 inch (8 cm)
single CDs with an adapter ring. Full-size CDs
and the smaller CDs are loaded in the same
manner.
If playing a CD-R, the sound quality can be
reduced due to CD-R quality, the method of
recording, the quality of the music that has
been recorded, and the way the CD-R has been
handled. There can be an increase in skipping,
difficulty in nding tracks, and/or difficulty in loading
and ejecting. If these problems occur, check
the bottom surface of the CD. If the surface of
the CD is damaged, such as cracked, broken,
or scratched, the CD does not play properly.
If the surface of the CD is soiled, seeCare of
Your CDs on page 243Care of Your CDs for
more information.If there is no apparent damage, try a known
good CD.
Do not add any label to a CD, it could get
caught in the CD player. If a CD is recorded on
a personal computer and a description label
is needed, try labeling the top of the recorded
CD with a marking pen.
Notice:If a label is added to a CD, or more
than one CD is inserted into the slot at a
time, or an attempt is made to play scratched
or damaged CDs, the CD player could be
damaged. While using the CD player, use
only CDs in good condition without any
label, load one CD at a time, and keep the
CD player and the loading slot free of foreign
materials, liquids, and debris.
If an error displays, see “CD Messages” later in
this section.
