Using an MP3 CD
MP3 Format
If you burn your own MP3/WMA disc on a personal
computer:
•Make sure the MP3/WMA files are recorded on a
CD-R disc.
•Do not mix standard audio and MP3/WMA files on
one disc.
•Make sure each MP3/WMA file has a .m3u or .wma
extension, other file extensions may not work.
•Files can be recorded with a variety of fixed or
variable bit rates. Song title, artist name, and album
will be available for display by the radio when
recorded using ID3 tags version 1 and 2.
•Create a folder structure that makes it easy to find
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 finalize the disc when burning an
MP3/WMA disc, using multiple sessions. It is usually
better to burn the disc all at once.
The player will be able to read and play a maximum of
50 folders, 5 sessions, and 999 files. Long file names,
folder names may use more disc memory space
than necessary. To conserve space on the disc,
minimize the length of the file, folder names. You can
also play an MP3/WMA CD that was recorded using no
file folders. The system can support up to 8 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, 5 sessions, and 999 files the player will
let you access and navigate up to the maximum, but all
items over the maximum will be ignored.

Radio Reception
You may experience frequency interference and static
during normal radio reception if items such as cellphone
chargers, vehicle convenience accessories, and
external electronic devices are plugged into the
accessory power outlet. If there is interference or static,
unplug the item from the accessory power outlet.
AM
The range for most AM stations is greater than for FM,
especially at night. The longer range can cause
station frequencies to interfere with each other. For
better radio reception, most AM radio stations will boost
the power levels during the day, and then reduce
these levels during the night. Static can also occur when
things like storms and power lines interfere with radio
reception. When this happens, try reducing the treble on
your radio.
