Introduction
This chapter describes the operation of the CD player
only. To operate the radio, refer to the description in the
“Functions and Adjustments” chapter.
CD Player Selection

proceed as follows:
•Load a CD with the equipment switched on. The first
track will start to play.
or
•If a CD has already been loaded, turn on the radio and
then briefly press the MEDIA button to select the “CD”
function mode. The last track listened to will start to
play. It is advisable to use original CDs to ensure optimal
playing. If CD-R/RWs are used, we recommend using
good quality media that are burned at the slowest speed
possible.
CD Loading/Ejecting
To load the CD, insert it gently into the slot to activate the
motorized loading system, which will position it cor-
rectly.
The CD can be loaded with the radio off and the ignition
key turned to ON/RUN. In this case, the radio will
remain off. When the radio is turned on, the last source
listened to before being switched off, will be activated.
When a CD is inserted, the display will show the symbol
“CD” and the wording “CD Reading.” They will remain
displayed for the whole time required for the radio to
read the CD. When this time has elapsed the radio
automatically starts playing the first track.

a reading error) the display shows the wording “CD Disc
error.”
The CD will then be ejected and the audio source
activated before the CD mode selection will be heard. A CD which cannot be read will not be ejected until these
functions are over. At the end, with the CD mode
activated, the display will show the wording “CD Disc
error” for a few seconds and then the CD will be ejected.

CD MP3 Player
Introduction
This chapter describes the operation of the CD MP3
player. NOTE:
Layer-3 audio decoding technology is licensed
from Fraunhofer IIS and Thomson multimedia.
MP3 Mode
In addition to playing regular audio CDs, the radio is also
enabled to play CDROMs on which compressed audio
files have been recorded in an MP3 format.
To guarantee optimal reproduction, it is advisable to use
good quality CDs burned at the lowest speed possible.
The files on an MP3 CD are structured in folders that
create lists of all the folders containing MP3 tracks
(folders or subfolders are all on the same level). The
folders that do not contain MP3 tracks cannot be selected.
The specifications and operating conditions for playing
MP3 files are the following:
•The CD-ROMs used should be burned in accordance
with ISO standard 9660.
4
UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL 173

•The music files should have the extension “.mp3” or
“.wma” files with a different extension will not be
reproduced.
•The sampling frequencies that can be reproduced are:
44.1 kHz, stereo (from 96 to 320 kbit/s) – 22.05 kHz,
mono or stereo (from 32 to 80 kbit/s).
•Tracks with a variable bit-rate can be reproduced.
NOTE: The track names must not include the following
characters: spaces, ‘ (apostrophes), ( and ) (open and close
brackets). During the burning of a MP3 CD, make sure
that the names of the files do not contain these characters;
if not, the radio will not be able to play the tracks
involved.
Selecting MP3 Sessions With Hybrid Discs
If a hybrid disc is inserted (Mixed Mode, Enhanced,
CD-Extra) also containing MP3 files, the radio automati-
cally starts playing the audio session. It is possible to move to the MP3 session while playing by keeping the
CD button pressed for more than 2 seconds.
NOTE:
When the function is activated the radio may
take a few seconds to start playing. While checking the
disc the display will show “CD Reading.” If no MP3 files
are detected, the radio will resume playing the audio
session from the point where it was interrupted.
Display Information
ID3–Tag Information Display
In addition to the information relating to the time
elapsed, folder name and file name, the radio is also
capable of displaying ID3–TAG information relating to
Title Track, Artist and Author.
When one of the ID3-TAG pieces of information is chosen
to be displayed (Title, Artist, Album) and this informa-
tion has not been recorded for the track played, the text
UNKNOWN will be displayed for that field.

button to select the previous folder. The display will
show the number of the folder.
The folders are selected cyclically. The first folder is
selected after the last folder and vice versa.

the first track on the new folder will be played.
At that moment selected the last track in the folder is
playing, the next folder will be played.
Structure Of The Folders
The radio with MP3 player:
•Recognizes only the folders that effectively contain
MP3 format files
•If the MP3 files on a CD-ROM are structured in
sub-folders their structure is compressed to a single
level structure, where the sub-folders are taken to the
level of the main folders.
