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.
Do not mix standard audio and MP3 les on
one disc.
Make sure playlists have a .mp3 or .wpl extension,
other le extensions may not work.
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.
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.
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.
The player is able to read and play a maximum of
99 folders and playlists. 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 99 folders and playlists the player can
access and navigate up to the maximum, but all
items over the maximum are ignored.
3-87

Root Directory
The root directory is treated as a folder. If the root
directory has compressed audio les, the directory
displays as F1 ROOT. All les contained directly under
the root directory are accessed prior to any root
directory folders. However, playlists (Px) are always
accessed before root folders or les.
Empty Directory or Folder
If a root directory or a folder exists somewhere in
the le structure that contains only folders/subfolders
and no compressed les directly beneath them,
the player advances to the next folder in the le structure
that contains compressed audio les and the empty
folder does not display.
No Folder
When the CD contains only compressed les, the les
are located under the root folder. The next and previous
folder functions not function on a CD that was recorded
without folders or playlists. When displaying the
name of the folder the radio displays ROOT.
When the CD contains only playlists and compressed
audio les, but no folders, all les are located under the
root folder. The folder down and the folder up buttons
search playlists (Px) rst and then go to the root folder.
When the radio displays the name of the folder the
radio displays ROOT.
Order of Play
Tracks are played in the following order:
Play begins from the rst track in the rst playlist
and continues sequentially through all tracks in
each playlist. When the last track of the last playlist
has played, play continues from the rst track of
the rst playlist.
If the CD does not contain any playlists, play
begins from the rst track under the root directory.
When all tracks from the root directory have
played, play continues from les according to
their numerical listing. After playing the last track
from the last folder, play begins again at the
rst track of the rst folder or root directory.
When play enters a new folder, the display does not
automatically show the new folder name unless
you have chosen the folder mode as the default display.
The new track name displays.
File System and Naming
The song name that displays is the song name that is
contained in the ID3 tag. If the song name is not present
in the ID3 tag, the radio displays the le name without
the extension (such as .mp3) as the track name.
Track names longer than 32 characters or four pages
are shortened. Parts of words on the last page of
text and the extension of the lename displays.
3-88

Preprogrammed Playlists
Preprogrammed playlists that were created using
WinAmp™, MusicMatch™, or Real Jukebox™ software
can be accessed, however, they cannot be edited
using the radio. These playlists are treated as special
folders containing compressed audio song les.
Playing an MP3
When a CD is inserted, CD displays, the number of the
CD and the track number displays if the radio is on.
If the radio is on, the CD begins to play automatically.
If the ignition or radio is turned off with a CD in the
player it stays in the player. When the ignition or radio
is turned on, the CD starts to play where it stopped,
if it was the last selected audio source.

Navigation/Radio System
Your vehicle may have a navigation radio system.
The navigation system has built-in features intended
to minimize driver distraction. Technology alone,
no matter how advanced, can never replace your own
judgment. See the Navigation System manual for
some tips to help you reduce distractions while driving.
Rear Seat Entertainment (RSE)
System
Your vehicle may have a DVD Rear Seat Entertainment
(RSE) system. The RSE system works with the
vehicle’s audio system. The DVD player is part of the
front radio. The RSE system includes a radio with
a DVD player, a video display screen, and if your
vehicle has a third row seat, it could have a second
video display screen, audio/video jacks, two wireless
headphones, and a remote control. SeeRadio(s)
on page 3-70for more information on the vehicle’s
audio/DVD system.
Driver Control of the Audio System
The driver has basic control of the whole audio system.
Press and hold the
O(power) knob for more than
two seconds to turn off the radio, RSE (rear seat
entertainment), and the RSA (rear seat audio).
SeeRadio(s) on page 3-70for more information.
If your vehicle has the navigation system, see the
Navigation System manual for more information.
Before You Drive
The RSE is designed for rear seat passengers only.
The driver cannot safely view the video screen
while driving and should not try to do so.
In severe or extreme weather conditions the RSE
system might not work until the temperature is within
the operating range. The operating range for the
RSE system is above−4°F (−20°C) or below
140°F (60°C). If the temperature of your vehicle is
outside of this range, heat or cool the vehicle until
the temperature is within the operating range of the
RSE system.
3-92

Headphones
The RSE includes two 2-channel wireless headphones
that are dedicated to this system. Channel 1 is dedicated
to the DVD player, while Channel 2 is dedicated to
RSA selections. These headphones are used to listen to
media such as CDs, DVDs, MP3s, DVDAs, radio, any
auxiliary source connected to A/V jacks, or the auxiliary
input jack, if your vehicle has this feature. The wireless
headphones have an On/Off button, channel 1/2 switch,
and a volume control.If your vehicle has a third row video screen display,
it has two additional headphones.
Push the power button to turn on the headphones.
An indicator light located on the headphones comes on.
If the light comes on but, there is intermittent sound
and/or static on the headphones, or if the indicator
light does not come on, the batteries might need to
be replaced. See “Battery Replacement” later in
this section for more information. Switch the headphones
to Off when not in use.
The infrared transmitters are located at the rear of the
RSE overhead console. The headphones shut off
automatically to save the battery power if the RSE
system and the RSA are shut off or if the headphones
are out of range of the transmitters for more than
3 minutes. If you move too far forward or step out of
the vehicle, the headphones lose the audio signal.
The headphones automatically turn off after four hours
of continuous use.
To adjust the volume on the headphones, use the
volume control located on the right side.
3-93

To use the auxiliary inputs of the RSE system, connect
an external auxiliary device to the color-coded A/V jacks
and turn both the auxiliary device and the video screen
power on. If the video screen is in the DVD player mode,
pressing the AUX (auxiliary) button on the remote control
switches the video screen from the DVD player mode
to the auxiliary device. The radio plays the audio of the
connected auxiliary device by sourcing to auxiliary.
SeeRadio(s) on page 3-70for more information.
For optimal sound quality, increase the portable audio
device’s volume to the loudest level. Higher levels
of volume decreases audio distortion.
It is always best to power your portable audio device
through its own battery while playing.
How to Change the RSE Video Screen
Settings
The screen display mode (normal, full, and zoom),
screen brightness, and setup menu language can be
changed from the on screen setup menu. To change
any feature, perform the following:

The RSE system always transmits the audio signal to
the wireless headphones, if there is audio available.
See “Headphones” earlier in this section for more
information.
The DVD player is capable of outputting audio to the
wired headphone jacks on the RSA system, if your
vehicle has this feature. The DVD player can be
