CD player CHEVROLET OPTRA 5 2006 1.G Owner's Manual

•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.
Root Directory
The root directory will be treated as a folder. If the root
directory has compressed audio files, the directory
will be displayed as ROOT. All files contained directly
under the root directory will be accessed prior to
any other directory.
Empty Directory or Folder
If a root directory or a folder exists somewhere in the
file structure that contains only folders/subfolders and no
compressed files directly beneath them, the player will
advance to the next folder in the file structure that
contains compressed audio files and the empty folder
will not be displayed or numbered.
No Folder
When the CD contains only compressed files, the files
will be located under the root folder. The next and
previous folder functions will have no function on a CD
that was recorded without folders or playlists. When
displaying the name of the folder the radio will
display ROOT.
When the CD contains only compressed audio files, but
no folders, all files will be located under the root
folder. When the radio displays the name of the folder,
the radio will display ROOT.
3-70

Order of Play
Tracks will be played in the following order:
•Playback will begin from the first track under the
root directory.
•When all tracks from the root directory have been
played, playback will continue from files, according
to their numerical listing.
•After playing the last track from the last folder, the
player will begin playing again at the first track of
the first folder or root directory.
File System and Naming
The song name in the ID3 tag will be displayed. If the
song name is not present in the ID3 tag, then the
radio will display the file name without the extension
(such as MP3/WMA) instead.
Track names longer than 32 characters or 4 pages will
be shortened. The display will not show parts of
words on the last page of text and the extension of the
filename will not be displayed.
Playing an MP3/WMA
With the ignition on, insert a CD partway into the slot,
label side up. The player will pull it in, Loading, then
Filecheck, and then MP3 or WMA will appear on
the display. The CD should begin playing. You cannot
insert a CD with the ACC off.
As each new track starts to play, the track number, and
the song name will appear on the display.
If the ignition or radio is turned off with a CD in the player,
it will stay in the player. When a CD is in the player and
the ignition is turned on, the radio must be turned on
before the CD will start playback. When the ignition and
radio are turned on, the CD will start playing where it
stopped, if it was the last selected audio source.
The CD player can play the smaller 3 inch (8 cm) single
CDs with an adapter ring. Full-size CDs and the
smaller CDs are loaded in the same manner.
If playing a CD-R, the sound quality may be reduced due
to CD-R quality, the method of recording, the quality of
the music that has been recorded, and the way the CD-R
has been handled. There may be an increase in skipping,
difficulty in finding tracks, and/or difficulty in loading and
ejecting. If these problems occur, check the bottom
surface of the CD. If the surface of the CD is damaged,
such as cracked, broken, or scratched, the CD will not
play properly. If the surface of the CD is soiled, seeCare
of Your CDs on page 3-75for more information.
3-71

If there is no apparent damage, try a known good CD.
Do not add any label to a CD, it could get caught in the
CD player. If a CD is recorded on a personal computer
and a description label is needed, try labeling the top of
the recorded CD with a marking pen instead.
Notice:If you add any label to a CD, insert more
than one CD into the slot at a time, or attempt
to play scratched or damaged CDs, you could
damage the CD player. When using the CD player,
use only CDs in good condition without any
label, load one CD at a time, and keep the CD player
and the loading slot free of foreign materials,
liquids, and debris.

CD Messages
CHECK CD:If this message appears on the display
and/or the CD comes out, it could be for one of the
following reasons:
•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.
•The format of the CD may not be compatible. See
“MP3 Format” earlier in this section.
•There may have been a problem while burning
the CD.
•The label may 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. If the radio displays
an error message, write it down and provide it to your
dealer when reporting the problem.

feature, some audio
controls can be adjusted at
the steering wheel. They
include the following:
PWR (Power):Press this button to turn the audio
system on or off.
MODE:Press and release this button to select FM1,
FM2, AM, or CD (MP3) for audio playback. Press
and release this button multiple times to cycle through
the audio playback options that are available on
your vehicle.

Care of Your CDs
Handle CDs carefully. Store them in their original cases
or other protective cases and away from direct
sunlight and dust. The CD player scans the bottom
surface of the disc. If the surface of a CD is damaged,
such as cracked, broken, or scratched, the CD will
not play properly or not at all. If the surface of a CD is
soiled, take a soft, lint free cloth or dampen a clean, soft
cloth in a mild, neutral detergent solution mixed with
water, and clean it. Make sure the wiping process starts
from the center to the edge.
Do not touch the bottom side of a CD while handling it;
this could damage the surface. Pick up CDs by
grasping the outer edges or the edge of the hole and
the outer edge.
Care of the CD Player
The use of CD lens cleaners for CD players is not
advised, due to the risk of contaminating the internal
lens of the CD optics with lubricants.
Integrated Windshield Antenna
The antenna is located in the windshield. It is a very
thin metal layer that outlines near the edges of the
windshield. The connector is at the top of the windshield,
where the headliner ends. For proper radio reception,
the antenna connector at the top of the windshield needs
to be properly attached to the post on the glass.
If difficulty with remote transmitters is experienced, such
as a garage door opener, try pointing the device
through the very top of the windshield.
Notice:Using a razor blade or sharp object to clear
the inside windshield may damage the antenna.
Repairs would not be covered by your warranty. Do
not clear the inside windshield with sharp objects.
Make sure the inside surface of the windshield is
not scratched and that the lines on the glass are not
damaged. If the inside surface is damaged, it could
interfere with radio reception.
