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.
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.
Files can be recorded with a variety of xed or
variable bit rates. Song title, artist name, and
album are available for display by the radio
when recorded using ID3 tags version 1 and 2.
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.
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.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 can 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 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 ignored.
Root Directory
The root directory is treated as a folder. If the
root directory has compressed audio les,
the directory is displayed as F1 ROOT. All les
contained directly under the root directory
are accessed prior to any root directory folders.
However, playlists (Px) are always be accessed
before root folders or les.

Drunken Driving
Death and injury associated with drinking and
driving is a national tragedy. It is the number one
contributor to the highway death toll, claiming
thousands of victims every year.
Alcohol affects four things that anyone needs to
drive a vehicle:
Judgment
Muscular Coordination
Vision
Attentiveness
Police records show that almost half of all motor
vehicle-related deaths involve alcohol. In most
cases, these deaths are the result of someone who
was drinking and driving. In recent years, more
than 16,000 annual motor vehicle-related deaths
have been associated with the use of alcohol, with
more than 300,000 people injured.Many adults — by some estimates, nearly half the
adult population — choose never to drink alcohol,
so they never drive after drinking. For persons
under 21, it is against the law in every U.S. state to
drink alcohol. There are good medical,
psychological, and developmental reasons for
these laws.
The obvious way to eliminate the leading highway
safety problem is for people never to drink
alcohol and then drive. But what if people do?
How much is “too much” if someone plans
to drive? It is a lot less than many might think.
Although it depends on each person and situation,
here is some general information on the problem.
The Blood Alcohol Concentration (BAC) of
someone who is drinking depends upon
four things:
The amount of alcohol consumed
The drinker’s body weight
The amount of food that is consumed before
and during drinking
The length of time it has taken the drinker to
consume the alcohol
