with the same controls used for the
radio. To load or play discs, the
ignition switch must be in the
ACCESSORY (I) or ON (II) position.
Do not use discs with adhesive labels.
The label can curl up and cause the
disc to jam in the unit.

CD-Rs and CD-RWs compressed in
MP3 or WMA formats. When playing
a disc in MP3, you will see‘‘MP3 ’’on
the screen. In WMA format, ‘‘WMA ’’
will appear on the screen. You can
select up to 255 folders and play up
to 999 tracks. If the disc has a
complex structure, it takes a while to
read the disc before the system
begins to play it. If you have a disc that is a
combination of CD-DA tracks and
MP3/WMA files, you can choose the
format to listen by pressing and
holding CD/AUX button until you
hear a beep.
Video CDs and DVD discs do not
work in this unit.
A disc compressed in AAC format
cannot be played in this audio system.
