CD MP3 Player
Introduction
This chapter describes the operation of the CD MP3
player.
NOTE:Layer-3 audio decoding technology is licensed
from Fraunhofer IIS and Thomson multimedia.
MP3 Mode
In addition to playing regular audio CDs, the radio is also
enabled to play CDROMs on which compressed audio
files have been recorded in an MP3 format.
To guarantee optimal reproduction, it is advisable to use
good quality CDs burned at the lowest speed possible.
The files on an MP3 CD are structured in folders that
create lists of all the folders containing MP3 tracks
(folders or subfolders are all on the same level). The
folders that do not contain MP3 tracks cannot be selected.

The specifications and operating conditions for playing
MP3 files are the following:
•The CD-ROMs used should be burned in accordance
with ISO standard 9660.
•The music files should have the extension “.mp3” or
“.wma” files with a different extension will not be
reproduced.
•The sampling frequencies that can be reproduced are:
44.1 kHz, stereo (from 96 to 320 kbit/s) – 22.05 kHz,
mono or stereo (from 32 to 80 kbit/s).
•Tracks with a variable bit-rate can be reproduced.
NOTE:The track names must not include the following
characters: spaces, ‘ (apostrophes), ( and ) (open and close
brackets). During the burning of a MP3 CD, make sure
that the names of the files do not contain these characters;
if not, the radio will not be able to play the tracks
involved.
Selecting MP3 Sessions With Hybrid Discs
If a hybrid disc is inserted (Mixed Mode, Enhanced,
CD-Extra) also containing MP3 files, the radio automati-
cally starts playing the audio session. It is possible to
move to the MP3 session while playing by keeping the
CD button pressed for more than two seconds.
NOTE:When the function is activated the radio may take
a few seconds to start playing. While checking the disc
the display will show “CD Reading.” If no MP3 files are
detected, the radio will resume playing the audio session
from the point where it was interrupted.
