CD Messages
DISC ERROR:If this message displays and/or
the CD ejects, it could be for one of the following
reasons:
The radio system does not support the playlist
format, the compressed audio format, or the
data le format.
It is very hot. When the temperature returns to
normal, the CD should play.
You are driving on a very rough road.
When the road becomes smoother, the CD
should play.
The CD is dirty, scratched, wet, or
upside down.
The air is very humid. If so, wait about
an hour and try again.
There could have been a problem while
burning the CD.
The label could be caught in the CD player.
If the CD is not playing correctly, for any
other reason, try a known good CD.If any error occurs repeatedly or if an error cannot
be corrected, contact your dealer/retailer. If the
radio displays an error message, write it down and
provide it to your dealer/retailer when reporting
the problem.
Using the Auxiliary Input Jack
Your radio system has an auxiliary input jack
located on the lower right side of the faceplate.
This is not an audio output; do not plug the
headphone set into the front auxiliary input jack.
You can however, connect an external audio
device such as an iPod, laptop computer, MP3
player, CD changer, or cassette tape player, etc. to
the auxiliary input jack for use as another source
for audio listening.
Drivers are encouraged to set up any auxiliary
device while the vehicle is in PARK (P). See
Defensive Driving on page 302for more
information on driver distraction.
286

To use a portable audio player, connect a 3.5 mm
(1/8 inch) cable to the radio’s front auxiliary input
jack. When connecting an auxiliary device, the
radio automatically detects the device and “Aux
Input Device” displays. The device begins playing
audio over the vehicle speakers. If an auxiliary
device has already been connected, the device
does not begin playing audio until the radio’s
CD/AUX button is pressed.
O(Power/Volume):Turn this knob clockwise
or counterclockwise to increase or decrease
the volume of the portable player. You might
need to do additional volume adjustments from
the portable device.

so you might want to stop it or power it off.
CD/AUX (CD/Auxiliary):Press this button to play
a CD when a portable audio device is playing.
Press this button again and the system begins

Using an MP3
MP3/WMA CD-R or CD-RW Disc
The radio plays MP3 and WMA les that were
recorded on a CD-R or CD-RW disc. The les
can be recorded with the following xed bit
rates: 32 kbps, 40 kbps, 56 kbps, 64 kbps, 80 kbps,
96 kbps, 112 kbps, 128 kbps, 160 kbps, 192 kbps,
224 kbps, 256 kbps, and 320 kbps or a variable
bit rate. Song title, artist name, and album can
display when les are recorded using ID3 tags
version 1 and 2.
Compressed Audio
The radio also plays discs that contain both
uncompressed CD audio (.CDA les) and
MP3/WMA les. By default the radio reads
only the uncompressed audio and ignores the
MP3/WMA les. Pressing the CAT (category)
button toggles between compressed and
uncompressed audio format.
287

MP3/WMA Format
If you burn your own MP3/WMA disc on a
personal computer:
Make sure the MP3/WMA les are recorded
on a CD-R or CD-RW disc.
Do not mix standard audio and MP3/WMA
les on one disc.
Make sure the CD does not have more than
a maximum of 50 folders, 50 playlists, and
255 les to read and play.
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.
Avoid subfolders. The system can support up
to 8 subfolders deep, however, keep the total
number of folders to a minimum in order to
reduce the complexity and confusion in trying
to locate a particular folder during playback.
Make sure playlists have a .mp3 or .wpl
extension (other le extensions might
not work).
Minimize the length of the le, folder or playlist
names. Long le, folder, or playlist names, or
a combination of a large number of les and
folders, or playlists can cause the player to be
unable to play up to the maximum number of
les, folders, playlists, or sessions. If you wish
to play a large number of les, folders, playlists,
or sessions, minimize the length of the le,
folder, or playlist name. Long names also take
up more space on the display, potentially
getting cut off.
Finalize the audio disc before you burn it.
Trying to add music to an existing disc can
cause the disc not to function in the player.
Change playlists by using the
Sc(previous)
and
cT(next) folder buttons, theaknob,
or the SEEK arrows. An MP3/WMA CD-R
or CD-RW that was recorded using no le
folders can also be played. If a CD-R or CD-RW
contains more than the maximum of 50 folders,
50 playlists, and 255 les, the player lets you
access and navigate up to the maximum, but all
items over the maximum cannot be accessed.
