The data medium configuration or the devices or programs used for recording can cause individual tracks or data medium to be unreadable. Information can be found on the Internet on the best ways to create audio files, video files and data media (compression rate, ID3 tag etc.).
Due to the larger quantity of data, it takes longer to read a data medium containing compressed audio files (such as MP3, WMA) than a “normal” audio CD. Complex directory structures can also the delay the reading process. If possible, only use data media with readable audio and video files.
Play lists only define a certain playback sequence. Play lists do not save any files. Play lists cannot be played if the files on the data medium are not saved in the location to which the play list is referring (relative data path). Play lists cannot be copied to the media center (HDD).
NOTICE
Do not use memory card adapters.
No liability can be accepted for damaged or lost files on the data media.
Inserting or removing data media

Data media or files cannot be read
A message will be shown if a data medium cannot be read. The data medium needs to be removed manually.
Only supported files can be displayed and played via the Audio menu. Other files are ignored.
When you browse a media source, folders containing non-supported files are also displayed, but they appear empty once opened.
Navigation data (VCards etc.) can only be read via the Directory menu
WARNING
Inserting data media when the vehicle is moving can distract you from the road and lead to accidents. Always keep the storage compartment closed when the vehicle is moving.
NOTICE
The memory card slot's locking mechanism and the memory card can be damaged by incorrect insertion of a memory card or by inserting a incompatible memory card!
x When inserting a card, make sure it is correctly positioned.

If you insert a number of different CDs and DVDs and receive the message Drive error every time, contact a qualified workshop.

Files, folders and playlists on a data medium are sorted by name in alphanumerical order.
The illustration shows a typical audio data CD that contains tracks B, folders A and sub folders
⇒ fig. 154.
The tracks are played back as follows:
1. Tracks (1) and (2) in the CD's root directory
2. Track (3) and (4) in the first directory F1 in the root directory of the CD
3. Track (5) in the first subdirectory F1.1 of the directory F1
4. Track (6) in the first subdirectory F1.1.1 of the subdirectory F1.1
5. Track (7) in the second subdirectory F1.2 of the directory F1
6. Track (8) and (9) in the second directory F2
Play lists t are treated like directories in the playback sequence.
