INFORMATION AND ADVICE

On a single disc, the CD player can read up to 255 MP3 fi les spread
over 8 folder levels with a maximum of 192 folders. However, it is
recommended that this be kept to 2 levels so as to limit the time taken
to access and play the CD.
During play, the folder structure is not observed.

In order to be able to play a recorded CDR or CDRW, when recording
it is preferable to select standards ISO 9660 level 1.2 or Joliet.
If the disc is recorded in another format, it may not be played correctly.
It is recommended that the same recording standard is always used
for an individual disc, with as low a speed as possible (4x maximum)
for optimum sound quality.
In the particular case of a multi-session CD, the Joliet standard is
recommended.

Do not connect a hard disk or USB device other than audio players to
the USB port. This may cause damage to your installation.

The audio system will only play fi les with ".mp3", ".wma", ".wav" and
".ogg" extension on USB.

A high compression rate can adversely affect sound quality.

The playlists accepted on CD, MP3, iPod and USB connection are
types ".m3u" and ".wpl".
The number of fi les recognised is limited to 5 000 in 500 folders on
a maximum of 8 levels.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS


QUESTION



ANSWER



SOLUTION


An iPod is not recognised
when connecting to the
USB port. The iPod is of a generation that is not compatible with the USB.
The hard disk or device
is not recognised when
connecting to the USB
port. Some hard disks and devices need a power supply greater than is
provided by the audio system. Connect the device to the 230 V socket, the 12 V
socket or an external power supply.

Caution
: ensure that the device does not transmit
a voltage greater than 5 V (risk of destruction of
the system).
When streaming, the
sound cuts momentarily. Some telephones prioritise connection of the "hands-free" profi le. Delete the "hands-free" connection profi le to
improve streaming.
In "Random all" play,
not all of the tracks are
played. In "Random all" play, the system can only take into account up to
999 tracks.
With the engine off,
the audio system
switches off after a few
minutes of use. When the engine is switched off, the audio system operating time
depends on the battery charge.
The switch-off is normal: the audio system switches to economy mode
and switches off to prevent discharging the vehicle's battery. Start the vehicle's engine to increase the battery
charge.
The message "the audio
system is overheated"
appears on the display. In order to protect the installation if the surrounding temperature is too
high, the audio system switches to an automatic thermal protection mode
leading to a reduction of the volume or stopping of the playing of the CD. Switch the audio system off for a few minutes to
allow the system to cool.
