These temporary malfunctions can be corrected by filling the fuel tank
with high quality fuel of the recommended octane and/or properly
installing and securely tightening the fuel cap. After three driving cycles
without these or any other temporary malfunctions present, the light
should turn off. (A driving cycle consists of a cold engine startup
followed by mixed city/highway driving.) No additional vehicle service is
required.
If the light remains on, have your vehicle serviced at the first available
opportunity.
Light is blinking:
Engine misfire is occurring which could damage your catalytic converter.
You should drive in a moderate fashion (avoid heavy acceleration and
deceleration) and have your vehicle serviced at the first available
opportunity.
Under engine misfire conditions, excessive exhaust temperatures
could damage the catalytic converter, the fuel system, interior
floor coverings or other vehicle components, possibly causing a fire.

MP3 file directory structure
The MACHtMP3 music system recognizes MP3 disc file and directory
(folder) structure as follows:
²There are two different modes for MP3 disc playback: MP3 flat file
mode (default) and MP3 directory mode.
²MP3 flat file mode ignores any directory structure present on the MP3
disc. The player sequentially numbers each MP3 track on the disc
(denoted by the .mp3 file extension) from T001 to T255.
²MP3 directory mode represents a directory structure consisting of one
level of directories (folders). The CD player sequentially numbers all
MP3 tracks on the disc (denoted by .mp3 extension) and all
directories containing MP3 files, from 01±01 to 99±99. The first two
digits denote the directory number and the last two digits denote the
track number wtihin that directory.
²Creating discs with only one level of subdirectories will help with
navigation through the disc files.

Saving and naming MP3 files
²Your MACHtMP3 music system supports discs containing up to 255
files in 255 directories. Discs containing more than 255 files will not
play.
²Always save MP3 files with the .mp3 extension. The player recognizes
an MP3 file by the .mp3 extension, so MP3 files saved with different
extensions will not be played.Never save a non-MP3 file with the
.mp3 extension as the file will not play properly and damage
may occur to the player or your sound system.
²The player supports multi session discs. However, be sure to import
the previous session of the disc before you add new files. If you do not
import the previous session, only the last session will be played.
²When burning a disc, ensure that you close/finalize the disc before
playback, or the disc may not play properly or an error message may
appear.
²The player supports DAM (Digital Automatic Music) discs.

CLEANING COMPACT DISCS
Inspect all discs for contamination before playing. If necessary, clean
discs only with an approved CD cleaner and wipe from the center out to
the edge. Do not use circular motion.
MP3 DISC QUALITY FACTORS
The MACHtMP3 music system is designed for use with CD-DA (regular
audio discs), CD-R and CD-RW discs. Discs must comply with ISO 9660
and Joliet standards.
Several factors can effect disc playback quality:
²Disc capacity Ð Each disc contains about 650 MB of storage capacity.
We do not recommend using high capacity discs containing 700MB of
storage.
²Disc type Ð Some CD-RW discs may operate inconsistently and may
cause an error message to appear. We recommend burning MP3 files
onto CD-R discs.
