Using an MP3
MP3 CD-R or CD-RW Disc

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 les. Pressing the CAT (category) button
toggles between compressed and uncompressed
audio format.
MP3 Format
If you burn your own MP3 disc on a personal
computer:
Make sure the MP3 les are recorded on a
CD-R or CD-RW disc.
Avoid mixing standard audio and MP3 les on
one disc.
Make sure the CD does not have more than
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.

feature to play MP3 les on the CD-R in order
by artist or album. Press the pushbutton located

the disc to sort the les by artist and album ID3

the disc depending on the number of MP3 les
recorded to the CD-R. The radio might begin
playing while it is scanning the disc in the
background. When the scan is nished, the
CD-R begins playing again.
Once the disc has scanned, the player defaults to
playing MP3 les in order by artist. The current
artist playing is shown on the second line of
the display between the arrows. Once all songs by
that artist are played, the player moves to the
next artist in alphabetical order on the CD-R and
begins playing MP3 les by that artist. If you
want to listen to MP3 les by another artist, press
the pushbutton located below either arrow
button. The CD goes to the next or previous artist
in alphabetical order. Continue pressing either
button until the desired artist displays.
To change from playback by artist to playback by
album, press the pushbutton located below the
Sort By label. From the sort screen, push one ofthe buttons below the album button. Press the
pushbutton below the back label to return to the
main music navigator screen. Now the album
name displays on the second line between
the arrows and songs from the current album
begins to play. Once all songs from that album
have played, the player moves to the next album in
alphabetical order on the CD-R and begins
playing MP3 les from that album.
To exit music navigator mode, press the
pushbutton below the Back label to return to
normal MP3 playback.
