. Do not connect a USB device if a
connector, cable or USB port is wet.
Allow the connector, cable, and USB
port to dry completely before connect-
ing the USB device. (Wait for 24 hours
or more until it is dry.) If the connector
and USB port are exposed to fluids
other than water, evaporative residue
may cause a short circuit between the
connector pins and USB port. In this
case, replace the cable and USB port.
Otherwise damage to the USB device
and a loss of function may occur.
. If the cable is damaged (insulation cut,
connectors cracked, contamination
such as liquids, dust, dirt, etc. in the
connectors), do not use the cable.
Replace the cable with a new one.
. Do not put a USB device in a location
where static electricity occurs, electrical
noise is generated or hot air from the
air conditioner blows directly on it.
Doing so may cause the data stored on
the USB device to be corrupted. Notes for iPod®use:

registered in the U.S. and other countries.
. Improperly plugging in the iPod
®may
cause a checkmark to be displayed on

. An iPod nano®(1st Generation) may
remain in fast forward or rewind mode
if it is connected during a seek opera-
tion. In this case, please manually reset
the iPod

. An iPod nano®(2nd Generation) will
continue to fast-forward or rewind if it
is disconnected during a seek opera-
tion.
. An incorrect song title may appear when
the Play Mode is changed while using
an iPod nano
®(2nd Generation)
. Audiobooks may not play in the same
order as they appear on an iPod

. Large video files cause slow responses
in an iPod
®. The vehicle center display
may momentarily black out, but will
soon recover.
. If an iPod

the vehicle center display may momen- tarily black out, but will soon recover.
Compressed Audio Files (MP3/
WMA/AAC/ATRAC3)
Explanation of terms:
.
MP3 —MP3 is short for Moving Pictures
Experts Group Audio Layer 3. MP3 is
the most well known compressed
digital audio file format. This format
allows for near “CD quality”sound, but
at a fraction of the size of normal audio
files. MP3 conversion of an audio track
can reduce the file size by approxi-
mately a 10:1 ratio (Sampling: 44.1
kHz, Bit rate: 128 kbps) with virtually
no perceptible loss in quality. The
compression reduces certain parts of
sound that seem inaudible to most
people.
. WMA —Windows Media Audio (WMA) is
a compressed audio format created by
Microsoft as an alternative to MP3. The
WMA codec offers greater file compres-
sion than the MP3 codec, enabling
storage of more digital audio tracks in
the same amount of space when
compared to MP3s at the same level
of quality.

.DivX®- DivX®refers to the DivX®codec
owned by DivX, Inc. used for a lossy
compression of video based on MPEG-
4.
. AVI - AVI stands for Audio Video
Interleave. It is a standard file format
originated by Microsoft Corporation. A
“.divx” encoded file can be saved into
the “.avi” file format for playback on
this system if it meets the requirements
stated in the table in this section.
However, not all the “.avi”files are
playable on this system since different
encodings can be used than the DivX

. Bit rate —Bit rate denotes the number
of bits per second used by a digital
video file. The size and quality of a
compressed digital audio file is deter- mined by the bit rate used when
encoding the file.
