MUSIC MEDIA PLAYERS


CD, MP3 CD / USB player


The audio equipment will only play audio fi les with ".wma, .aac, .fl ac,
.ogg and .mp3" fi le extensions and with a bit rate of between 32 Kbps
and 320 Kbps.
It also supports VBR (Variable Bit Rate) mode.
No other type of fi le (.mp4, .m3u…) can be played.
WMA fi les must be of the standard wma 9 type.
The sampling rates supported are greater than 32 KHz.

It is advisable to restrict fi le names to 20 characters, without using of
special characters (e.g.: " " ? ; ù) to avoid any playing and displaying
problems.

In order to be able to play a recorded CDR or CDRW, when recording
it is preferable to select the ISO 9660 level 1, 2 or Joliet standard.
If the disc is recorded in another format (udf, …), 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.

MUSIC MEDIA PLAYERS



Sources

Insert the CD in the player, insert the USB memory
stick in the USB player or connect the USB
peripheral to the USB port using a suitable cable

The system builds playlists (in temporary memory),
an operation which can take from a few seconds to
several minutes at the fi rst connection.
Reduce the number of non-music fi les and the
number of folders to reduce the waiting time.
The playlists are updated every time the ignition is
switched off or connection of a USB memory stick.
However, the system memorises these lists and
if they are not modifi ed, the loading time will be
shorter.
Play starts automatically after a period which
depends on the capacity of the USB memory stick.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS



QUESTION



ANSWER



SOLUTION


With the engine off, the
system switches off after
a few minutes of use. When the engine is switched off, the system's operating time depends on
the battery charge.
The switch-off is normal: the system switches to economy mode and
switches off to prevent discharging of the vehicle's battery. Start the vehicle's engine to increase the battery
charge.
Playback of my USB
memory stick starts only
after a very long wait
(around 2 to 3 minutes). Some fi les supplied with the memory stick may greatly slow down access
to reading the memory stick (multiplication by 10 of the catalogue time). Delete the fi les supplied with the memory stick
and limit the number of sub-folders in the fi le
structure on the memory stick.
When I connect my
iPhone as telephone and
to the USB port at the
same time, I am unable
to play the music fi les. When the iPhone connects automatically as a telephone, it forces the
streaming function. The streaming function takes the place of the USB
function which is then not useable, there is a period without sound of the
track being played with Apple
® players. Disconnect and reconnect to the USB port
(the USB function takes priority over streaming).
When I connect my
Apple
®
player or my
BlackBerry ® to the
USB port, I have alert
messages on the current
consumption by the USB
port. When charging, the current consumption of these smartphones is greater
than the rating of the USB port, which is 500 mA.

RDS, if displayed, enables you to continue listening to the same station
by automatic retuning to alternative frequencies. However, in certain
conditions, coverage of an RDS station may not be assured throughout
the country as radio stations do not cover 100 % of the territory. This
explains the loss of reception of the station during a journey.
