good quality media that are burned at the slowest speed
possible.

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

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.

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.

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.
