Media modeIntroduction“Media sources ” are audio sources containing audio files on various different
data media (e.g. CD, memory card, exte rnal MP3 player). These audio files
can be played by the radio and navigation system from its corresponding
drives or audio input sockets (internal CD changer, memory card slot, AUX-IN
